The transfer fees thread

[hungrywing]

I'd caution against paying the finance gurus too much heed then. "Cash flow supports around 90m/year" is vague and fluffy anyway. It could mean any number of things, but is essentially just wrong.

Looks about right from what I saw in the annual reports. If you see otherwise and can show how, I'd wager very few people would be unhappy to learn we can maintain a higher average net spend. Except maybe people who want to spend even more and would be upset to learn we could do so but don't.

Clubs will have to be creative and one way I think that could be done is to possibly have loan deals with an obligation to buy with a set fee or fee structure based on performance. Selling club doesn’t get their fee now but can anticipate something more akin to the real value of the player when things are expected to get to a level or normalcy next season.
