I presume that Kane is included and in the list of only 13 players each of which was sold for > £10m
Must admit that I lost a bit of interest after the MGW saga!
Don't know about you, but I'm still buzzing about the final and really looking forward to what Frank can do.
But then again, I'm not a miserable git.
What ever we are doing

Indeed however the Deloitte football money league has down as the 9th highest revenue generating club in the world.
That's their latest calc from Jan 2024 to Jan 2025.
So half of that with no Europe and no cup games , and no CL at all.
There's other factors of course like stadium debt, transfer debt etc
But regardless the numbers aren't in Levys favour with his mid table club routine.
He can't bamboozle the fans anymore as the data is out there
Must suck to be you. Can't get this stuff out of your mind.Sell to buy FC,
The frustration is with buying young players that have the potential to improve, but may not improve the first team immediately. However I guess the argument is that they are young and have a resale value (see Chelsea sales). But this falls down if they don't meet up expectations and so have limited resale value... Sorry feels like a circular argument
Another original comment. Your guys are awesome at coming up with new stuff.
I kind of agree, more so on Wissa.
Paulinha might be able to do a decent job. A 29 year old striker. No value.
we've not even been able to sell Solomon yet after a very good season and Leeds actually wanting him ffs.
I’m at the stage of fuck value and sell on. Wissa who I think offers something different could make a difference for us. 29 is still young and for a striker he knows his position well and know what’s needed. I think it’s a great age for a striker. If he came in and done well for two season then get fuck all for him who cares. We buy younger players and can’t ever sell them anyway so it makes no difference. Buy players that make a difference now.
We can’t sell Richy. We’ll not get a good return on Johnson and probably lose out big time on the Gray transfer unless he surprises us and kicks on.
Average player. Not an upgrade in what we have. Gets booked constantly and always diving in. Slow in possession and rarely plays forward. We need a 6 that can dictate the game.
Loan with option makes total sense for Palhinha tbh.

A. I’d rather keep Bissouma than waste another 30m on Palinha.
B. It is not our inability to sell that is the issue, it’s our inability to buy players worth a wank in the first place.
