They did a Premier league Prediction...they had villa at 11th and them at 6th......Gonna be a fun season.# Paquetta apparently wants to stay where he is. What’s the latest on Sangare mate?

They have to find money to back up the PL funds and they do that by selling. Bissouma, White and probably Cucurella soon is £140m or something. They do what they have to to get by, and under Ashworth they did it pretty well. Pretty much a nothing club sat in league 1/2 for most of the last 40 years. Ashworth going to Newcastle is a disaster for us. The owner of Brighton is worth 1.3 Billion, that is 1 thousand three hundred million pounds. Will you stop that nonsense about having to 'get by'. Brighton has revenues of circa 150m a year. Their spend is completely elective and is not constrained by owner's wealth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have even seen 6th and I have seen a 14% chance of top 4. Have you actually seen any media predictions of forecasted finishing places? What media is predicting us outside of the top 10?

So as I said, they don't have multi-billionaire owners. He's decided to spend how they do to get by. Bloom isn't going to pump hundreds of millions in for transfers. That's how he want to run it. (Gerrard wouldn't enjoy it there would he!) My point is Ashworth ran the club well. That's it. That brought on an odd post I didn't really understand about chucking money around which Newcastle clearly are not doing this summer. That would indicate to me Ashworth is starting off on the right foot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Griffin Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 With Archer staying at Villa this season I expect we will not be signing another striker. Assuming no key departures, does that mean we are only potentially looking for another CM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Ndidi but I assumed he was past it from the purpose of a big transfer. Just googled him and he is only 25. He seems to have be around for a lot longer than his age suggests 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
