Vive_La_Villa Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 4 hours ago, Enda said: Will anyone take on a bet? North of £65m, I pay a tenner to VT. South of £65m, they pay. Fee, not including add-ons or ifs/butts/maybes, and obviously no transfer means nobody pays. Deadline of this transfer window, so October 1st or whenever it ends. I’d take that bet if it was 50M. I reckon If he goes it will be in-between 50-60M I believe that would still put him in the top 30 or so of the most expensive transfers of all time and also the second highest English transfer of all time.

PieFacE Posted July 27, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted July 27, 2020 (edited) I think the days of us selling our key players for a penny less than our evaluation of them are long over with the owners we currently have. £80m or don't even entertain the prospect of selling him imo. The owners need to sit down with him and let him know the type of players we're going to be targeting. I assume they're going to be ambitious.

I'm not ITK here - maybe last year we cleared all the financial deadweight and as of August 1st we're in the clear. I just don't see that happening in a post-COVID market where we just scraped over the line. But despite the limitations of January, spending £120m within that FFP period is surely an indication that there is money to spend? We have also removed some financial deadweight, and despite the downturn, we've benefited from a much increased Premier league income, I would doubt that we made a huge loss on the season just finished, certainly I'd be surprised if it were anything like our Championship losses - we'll get another chunk of that Premier League income for the coming season and from an FFP position, in my estimation, there's absolutely no reason why we might not spend £100m again.

You can see it that way, or you can see it as every penny we spent last year is a penny we can't spend this year. I think I've read you work for the club or are closer to it than the average poster... are you speculating or have you a bit of an inside line, if you don't mind me asking? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenjiOgiwara Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 The funniest thing about this is reading Man Utd forums saying we are mental and stupid by asking more than £40 million for him cause he isn't above squad level to them. Firstly, squad level. Hah. He sure did a number on them at OT. Secondly. This idea teams should accomodate transfer fees to suit them. **** me I hate that plastic club. If you ever need to read the thoughts of imbeciles their forums are the place to go. Genuinly can't think of a club I dislike more. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Should be more to man utd Like pogba, Woodward will have the face or their Russian flying partner, their Japanese diesel tractor engine partner, their denim jacket partner, their Nigerian fruit juice partner, their Vietnamese tampon partner The return they will get from his looks and playing style in marketing will be absolutely mental And the crazy thing is I only made up 1 of those 5 partners...

I thought that I disliked Liverpool more, but this season has made me realize that they are worse. Whether its the fans overrating the mess out of Bruno, Bruno's antics on the pitch, being in almost £500 million in debt while still spending over £100 mil on transfers.

There's about £100m swing between staying in the Premier League and being relegated. That's the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that would surely only be true if the club had somehow predicted that CV-19 would mean the two years would be considered together. I guess we're both guessing at whether we spent to the point of a huge loss last summer or not - I have a feeling we didn't, I think we spent to a moderate loss - essentially we spent all the TV money, but then we didn't get it all with the CV-19 discount that was returned to the TV companies - we did so whilst controlling our wage bill very well I think. I reckon we made a (relatively) small loss, one we'll have been able to cover. I think we'll start this coming season's FFP period at pretty much zero - with the ability to spend whatever we're getting, and whatever the owners want to add to that within the current guidelines. Quote I think I've read you work for the club or are closer to it than the average poster... are you speculating or have you a bit of an inside line, if you don't mind me asking? I don't work for the club no, I get to go to the supporters group meetings as a representative of Villatalk, but inside info on finances isn't something I get given. Mine's complete guesswork based around what I can piece together. You won't have to go far to find out how often I'm very, very wrong! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
