is it an argument? i just thought it's a discussion

yeh probably not an argument you’re right. Just seeing it a bit of bashing the club on a strategy based on nothing but speculation

I don’t think the club have done anything wrong and nor has Neil or his agents

Leeds made a £60m+ loss in their 23/24 accounts. That won’t be the final number for PSR but they won’t get rid of all of it. They’ll be permitted the same total 3 year loss as us (think it’s £62m or so) but they’ll have taken a bigger chunk out of it with the last few years than we did. We’ll be in the black for the two years given the Jobe and Watson sales. All means we’ve got more breathing space. We’ve just got to make sure that we don’t max ourselves out this year, as the whole thing unwinds by 27.
Thanks again marra

Another question marra,(apologies for being thick) viewed a detailed video on the three promoted clubs,while Burnley and Leeds can run a bigger loss than us,because of being in the premier league for a season recently,how come we can spend considerably more than them?,up to 200million was quoted
It’s works on a 3 year cycle inclusive of the upcoming season. In the prem you can lose £35m a season, in the championship it’s £13m. So for us we are allowed £61m loss (£35m for this year and then 2x13m). Leeds are in the same boat and Burnley have an extra £22m loss capacity because they were in the prem in 23/24.

Where we have an immediate advantage is we can add another ~£50m+ on top because of the clarke, Watson and now jobe sales.

What you have to remember is £30m for Diarra isn’t actually a £30m expense (for PSR terms). It will only be £6m each year being 30m over a 5 year contract.

I don’t know much about the other two promoted sides, but my assumption is they haven’t made any significant sales as of yet, and they’ll both still have high annual ‘PSR expenditure’ from lads they have that were signed in the prem days or larger championship purchases.

We’ve spent relative buttons on players on long term deals so our annual PSR expenditure is really low, whilst our PSR income has been very high for a championship side for player trading.

Hope that kind of makes sense. Obviously haven’t done my research on Leeds/Burnley (who are still in good positions regardless) so could be wrong about them but that’s my assumption.
 
Right I’m feeling greedy. Who’s next?

Bulka? Lauriente? Guendouzzi?

Sassuolo needed us to sign Lauriente by Monday right? Got a sneaky feeling that will be a “here we go” later today.
Bulka will be next I reckon, sounds extremely close. I really want an update on Lauriente as it's quiet.

Might hear more about a bid for Guendouzi and Angelino today as they need to sell by Monday

Im assuming Strasbourg needed to sell quickly as well hence the medical in Paris and not UK

The other thing to consider we have some other players who we could bank massive profits on for PSR.

Think the fact we are looking at investing £20m on a goalkeeper may well be part of the PSR game, - selling Patto could potentialy book £10m profit which gives even more firepower this summer. Guessing in terms of salary levels between the 2 may not be that far apart.
