I'd take Mbeumo over Johnson anyday too. He's a very good player.
LOL at Daniel with the disagree
It's what a club with a coherent transfer policy does. You don't need to sell all the players just enough to keep squad fresh.
Point taken. So what's the alternatives?
He clearly said excluding loan to perms - was Kane really just 100M euros? +5M is there or thereaboutsAbsolute bolllocks.

I understand why the books are kept the way they are for FFP purposes and for FFP purposes that seems correct, but from a "how much has the club invested?" perspective I very much prefer to book purchase obligations when they occur.Absolute bolllocks.

What that indicates essentially is that we spent a shitload of money on Conte, and have barely begun to reinvest the Kane money in terms of reallocating that to Ange-suited players.
That better reflects reality than looking at this as an unprecedented mega-spend summer, IMO.
Don't think can rely on Son, one he's not a striker two he can't win headers three his build & physique not fit for PL forward.If forced to choose, I really think casting Son as the CF alternative and improving our wing options is the better move, assuming a suitable player is available.
Is Brennan Johnson that player?
I have no idea how good is this so many times mentioned guy, B Johnson, haven't watched him play but think already he scored more goals than Richy this season!
If he joins, is he going to be referred to as Boris?
But who's gonna be happy to come and keep the bench warm behind Richarlison?
Everyone wants to argue different.... Ditto whether Net or Gross is what's meaningful..... It's incredibly tedious at this point cos whatever argument one wants to make someone will step in and try and pull the pull the rug..... And, no disrespect to you, "Ah, but that was Conte money" is just the latest stick to the spokes in terms of a practical discussion that doesn't involve crunching the clubs accounts.
(If we're being picky; technically Kulu was not a commitment until this summer and his notable loan fee was already booked for the previous 18 months.)
Either way; we're not in profit this season. The bloke was talking crap(*).
(*As always; the diff. here is I"m prepared to provide exact figures to back up my arguments., rather than feelings like the bloke above.)
........Money that a lot would insist had NOT been spent as a lump of it was "just loans".
I've not remotely suggested that this is an "unprecedented mega-spend summer".
Whatever way you slice it and regardless of who one wants to file as 'The Kane' Replacement'; in previous seasons (2019 onwards) we've averaged €95m (n)..... That figure will rise as a result of this summer if we follow through on Johnson:
22/23 in 177.9 out 38.7 = 139.2m (not inc. Porro/Kulu)
21/22 in 95.9 out 34.6 = 61.3m
20/21 in 110.50 out 13.3 = 97.2m
19/20 in 150.5 out 64.5 = 86m
= €383.7m (net spend) / Avg per season = €95.92m
He has an addiction.
Ivan Toney: Brentford striker diagnosed with gambling addiction as FA releases written reasons into eight-month ban
Ivan Toney placed 13 bets on his own club to lose and has been diagnosed with a gambling addiction, the FAs written reasons have revealed.; the Brentford striker was banned from all football activity for eight months last week following breaches of the FAs gambling regulations
Well I just said that to note that it would be the biggest outlay on new players in club history if calculated that way.
But the lion's share weren't new players at all. It's just book-cooking accounting.
Anyway, no reason to miss the forest for the trees here. Do we have a squad capable of competing for the top honors? Absolutely not. Can ENIC justify its ownership of the club, investment in infrastructure and pricing and brand placement without competing for the top honors? Absolutely not.
Unlike recent years this doesn't all have to come to its grand conclusion at the close of the nearest transfer window. We're engaged on a longer-term construction here. But it's the same story. To win like peer clubs will require squad expenditure like peer clubs, end of.
Fcuking disagrees until such time as Lo Celso comes on or starts and does diddly squat.
Astonishing how 7 points snd short-termism cover up a multitude of evidenced paucity.
I will be among the first to say I was wrong if Lo Celso comes good (ultimately it's whatever is good for the team that I care about), but honestly the flim flamming of supporters is hilarious.
We seem to have completely forgotten about Solomon
Brennan Johnson is loving Big Ange instead
