    Not so much this deal but could some deals have to do with the financial regulations?

    I very much doubt that City would have not taken up their option of another year.

    I read that he may be on £60k a week at West Ham.

    Yes that's usually my first thought, structuring the payment in a different FFP window, or changing the nature of the transaction or what have you.

    I would assume that the amortisation over a contract period on a purchase would be pretty similar to a loan fee though.
    If a loan period was followed by a compulsory purchase I would have thought the transaction(s) would be treated as one transaction and the fees accumulated and amortised as one over the total period. This would mean you couldn't fiddle the figures by paying £10k for a one year loan followed by £20m for a transfer with a three year contract.

    According the the Yorkshire Post we're targeting 3 new players before the window shuts. 1 being Maddison that looks all but done. 2 more make sense as we've lost 3 players in Bowen, Grosicki & Bowler due to injury.

    Slightly off topic, but I wonder with Grosicki & Bowen gone, will McCann change the way we play slightly? Maybe if we are to put our faith in Eaves, someone like Maddison whipping crosses in will help him score more as Bowen & Grosicki were not really playing to Eaves strengths.

    He’s definitely not an amateur.

    I totally agree. Maybe even have someone within ten yards of Eaves to link up with?

    I do think the way we play with Bowen and Grosicki doesn't get the best out the centre forward.

    I think this is a really good point. If we could add an out an out winger we could see the best of Eaves. Means a change in the way we play but based on the last three home games that’s not a bad thing anyway.

    Tax related maybe?

    I know there’s a big reason for that in leasing vs purchasing equipment.

    Everyone said Villa made some decent signings in the summer, they’ll be top half.

    Not the current centre forward.

    Releasing Campbell was mind bogglingly stupid if a promotion push was actually their goal, even more so considering he wasn’t replaced. Those three worked off each other perfectly, wonder where we’d be in the table now.

    Few football clubs have the luxury of having to pay tax.

    It's pretty obvious that Ehab is money related. He sells anybody he can get a fee for and buys cheap players and most likely pays them little with the incentive of making a name for themselves.

    Half of those signings are no longer available (a couple for the whole season), including the club record one, they've been very unlucky with injuries.

    But we do, I think. And it’s the group that it goes off isn’t it rather than each individual company under the umbrella.
