I mean he'd work in our team but I'd be disappointed if he was the target knowing what else there is in the market
Never really paid enough attention to him tbh but whenever I have watched him, including in person once, he's been very average.

I have no idea, Who else is in the market apart from Williams who we won’t get?
That's what our scouting department is there for....
If Raphinha is the most imaginative name they can come up with if we can't get Williams then they aren't up to much.

Couple on here
Neto, Bakayoko, I like Cherki
Can see why Ange would want Gudmunsson
My understanding:But if FFP is running on a 3 year basis any players you sell after 3 years then essentially are sold at some sort a profit? Obviously an academy player is pure profit.
So a transfer made in 2024 would affect 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026? Is that how it works now?
He was signed in 2021 so outside that window.
Or is it more about how they spread out the contracts and amortisation? Like Chelsea do it?
Madison should have played or at least come on as a sub. Branthwaite should have been given a go as well, McGuire for God’s sake. Out of form Rashford comes on, Bowen,who will not go to the Euros came on. Watkins did nothing so why not bring Toney on? We will go to Euros and if Kane is injured other strikers will have had hardly any experience. Will Dunk go to Euros, hopefully not so why was he brought on ahead of Branthwaite? Southgate is clueless.Hopefully CGs performance puts a stop to any thought of buying him especially for £50M!

Was wondering why MADDs didn’t come on. I’m sure he could play in a midfield 3 with Jude and rice. However boregate would rather play CG, hendo, Philips and now mainoo is on the scene. Bowen did ok when he came on. As for Maguire no way he doesn’t start in euros. Nailed on!Madison should have played or at least come on as a sub.

A player only constitutes profit if sold at a price higher than their current amortised value.
Sure..... If you buy player-X in FFP year 1 and sell player-X four years later then it just counts as cash in whatever year the transaction happens. The incoming book value of the income can't be accrued backwards into a past FFP year.
.........I think the red-herring with Chavs and Forest is that they don't have any particularly valuable non-HG players that weren't bought before the last 3 years that can help balance the FFP end of the books and thus are forced to sell HG.
Yes, they can sell Sterling (eg), but only the profit element of the sale will impact their FFP concerns cos the corresponding cost also sits in that period.
If we were currently in FFP trouble and sold Son (eg) then any sale income will have positive impact as his purchase pre-dates the FFP period in question.
Cheers.I've watched him a few times. Defo an interesting player and I don't think many expected him to be at this level, especially playing for a small side like Frosinone.
Though he plays on the right wing, he's left-footed and, very much like Kulusevski, 9 times out of 10 you'll see him cut inside. He also often drops deep to come get the ball or drifts centrally to play as a 10.
He's a pretty good dribbler, but that said he ain't lightning fast, he mainly goes past defenders through feints and using his body well.
Good passer too, but still plenty room for improvement. He tries too hard sometimes, doesn't keep it simple. His first touch can be a bit Sonny-like too.
So yeah overall, defo a kid worth keeping an eye on, but not somebody I'd spend a fortune on after one good season on loan in Serie A and expect him to be a starter at Spurs. No way.
Isn’t Cherki available on the cheap or something due to a contract issue?Couple on here
