Hope Levy and Poch aren’t watching the Romania U21 v Croatia U21 match - £63m would buy the whole team with £43m change.
But we'd end up with 11 Vlads

OK. Put it this way. We need to buy 2 or 3 players, desperately. That should clear my intention. And as to the business angle, without a look at the books, there's no way to know what we have to spend but our CL run must have brought in a fairly sizeable revenue just by itselfSorry, that's a cop out....
You want something done (i.e. leave the business talk out of it), but you can't explain how.
(I know people won't like it and say it's extremity for extremities sake, but the logical conclusion to your stance is us all sitting round wondering why we haven't signed Messi....
Alternatively, may as well close this thread and start one where we just play toy soldiers, devising endless formations with our current squad.)

*If he makes 40 appearances this season...

What are you talking about! Money should be available. 3 self imposed transfer window bans, CL run, Top 4 again PLUS 25,000 match days fans revenue increase. It's insane to say there is no transfer kitty in the excess of £50m...OK. Put it this way. We need to buy 2 or 3 players, desperately. That should clear my intention.

Lyon President Aulas gives window update on Ndombele, Fekir, Traoré & more - Get French Football News
Speaking at a press conference to announce the arrival of Jean-Luc Vasseur as the new manager of Lyon's women's team, President Aulas discussed the future ofwww.getfootballnewsfrance.com
So the quotes from Aulas were slightly out of context earlier. This is his exact quote on Ndombele leaving:
"In terms of the chronology, before accepting the transfer of Ferland Mendy to Madrid, we signed the young international U17 Belgian, Heritier Deyonge, from PSV Eindhoven. What I can say to you is if you see a very good box-to-box midfield youngster arrive, in the coming days, then there will be a chance that Tanguy Ndombele leaves, but for the moment, we have not received offers of the level that we feel is a just price."
Make of it what you will, but sounds to me like he wants his replacement in first.
That's not what I said. I pointed out that it's fruitless speculating about this or that player's pricing if you don't know what's in the books. We have no idea of the budget that they have to work with.What are you talking about!

Maybe we can pick up a good bargain from the Women's World Cup?
You don't need to be a brain surgeon, you know Levy, a budget between 40m to 75m is what to expect.That's not what I said.

Think (as someone posted a few pages back) he was a season loan from Amiens with an option to buy for £7million. Don't think he would have been as cheap as that last summer without a pre-agreed price.What does it say about Scouting when N'Dombele can be purchased in 2018 for 7 million and now he’s claimed to be worth almost ten times as much ?
Logic makes a mockery of the claim we could
not find options last summer.
For me it'll be, "well that's what happens, you win some you lose some."In the event we get our targets and fail to win anything, will anyone have the balls to question Poch?
Or will all the signings suddenly be shit and signed above his head?
Yeah, I'm thinking Bale playing golf in Madrid for the foreseeable future is just fine. Something tells me Poch wouldn't be a fan...
It says what Bale wants, he wants to keep his 600,000 a week before tax, meaning no other club can pay this so he stays until end of contract. RM may go and find him a club to match his salary or shut up and play him.
