Ok, the £150m have to be drawn down this year. It’s unclear if it has to be spent this year or this accounting year though isn’t it?
It can sit on the balance sheet once drawn down, I think, but I don't think that ENIC would want that. But it might allow us ro run the club a bit hotter (higher wage to turnover ratio) with tighter cashflows too. No point writing down free next to Perisic and Lenglet if they are costing a collective 15 million plus next season.
 
If it stays like this I'm happy. I wouldn't mind some outgoings.

I'm not sure we need another CB, but I wouldn't mind one. Central defenders seems to be able to handle a lot more games than players in other positions. I guess they don't run as much. With too many defenders some will not get enough game time. But I we sell a few first I guess we need another one.
 
Re: the outgoings?

I reckon we’ll hang on to our excess, potential cast offs until other teams are desperate. Full Levy reversal…

Winks - Everton/Leicester
GLC - Villarreal
Belly - a French or Italian team without a WiFi connection
Royal/Doherty/Regs??

Young kids out on loan

I can definitely see a chunk of it being used on new contracts. Let’s be honest, if they sign them, new contracts to Kane and conte won’t be cheap.

Just read what I’m replying to. I said that means we can’t add Gil and Sarr to the squad which already has 17 foreign players.

I call it HG limit/ HG rules as a shorthand, but technically it should be called non-HG limit/ rules.

Edit: Btw if we do want 17 foreign players, there is a limit on non club trained HG players, and that limit is 4.

Last Saturday i posted a video interview of Trevor Sinclair by Chris Cowlin in which Trevor touches on the Spense deal and that Spense was represented by brothers Jon and Phill Smith. I mentioned that it wasnt actually Jon or Phill but Jons son, Scott, although i didnt mention his name.

Jon and Phill have been representing players, the England pool etc, for more than 30 years👍👍

In David Ornsteins original pr yesterday he specifically mentioned Scott and Scott runs RAPS Management who represents Spence.

But it helps when you have very well respected family like he does👍👍
