If you head over to SW and read some of the comments on the last page of the transfer thread then we've got no money either to spend. Thanks to P&L.
Can we keep him or is he just to Rent-o?
Nothing would surprise me at this stage tbh. FFP or PSR or whatever it’s called just doesn’t seem to make sense from the outside looking in. We could be able to spend, we could be completely skint or somewhere in between who knows.
What doesn’t seem to have changed is that it’s up to the club. Eg you could break the rules as much as you want and then the punishment doesn’t happen immediately, so we could think **** it and overspend this year to stay up then try and rectify next season. Doesn’t seem any benefit in not doing that, look at Leicester not spending and then getting relegated and now still getting apparently a hefty punishment.
Apparently we are interested in Josh Murphy, brother of Newcastle’s Jacob, who is out of contract at Oxford Utd. 29 year old winger
I do hope we have our sights a little higher than that. Plus I can’t stand his brother.
Something had to be done as clubs were or at the very least extremely close to going out of business with regularity. The current system is not ideal, but they’re trying to unsuccessfully balance the issue of crazy uncompetitive spending of a Man City/Newcastle with the unsustainably borrowing of a Portsmouth/Bolton.
It seems to have stopped the clubs going to the wall as regularly, but has also made it very much a closed shop in terms of competition. It’s now looking like it could get to the point where you may as well scrap promotion into the top flight if promoted teams can’t spend in line with established teams. The gap is already massive and restricting promoted teams spending is only going to result in more seasons like last year where the 3 promoted sides are so far off the pace it’s not worth it
What I've never quite understood is why you can't just 'split' the expenditure in to two 'accountable' elements. If Mr.Solak wishes to spend above the amount that PSR allows for Southampton then he can ... but, he becomes personally accountable to cover those costs.
It could be split so that wages are covered by the club (to protect the player) but the transfer fee is covered by the owner's personal wealth. In negotiations it might mean that the selling club is only willing to accept a more upfront weighted arrival of payment perhaps.

I wonder if these figures appear even larger because of the tax free part as well ? He’s set to likely triple his money if he accepts this134k a week.

A quick sum says an increase of 100k pw over three years is loadsa munny, about 15.6million. I'd bother for that.
