Tim - £9m (£49m required)
Dougie - £60m accumulative (£11m up)
Duran - £40m (£43m up)

Gives us quite a bit more wiggle room come 1st July onwards.

We are all guessing but hopefully that comes off and we see off the 23-24 accounts - and that’s not accounting anything we might get for the likes of Chambers, Hause, Coutinho, Digne and Sanson (just noticed he left permanently to Nice on 15 May - I missed that)

Less £7.5m (£37.5m/5) for Maatsen.

£35.5m up.

Academy looking at almost £200m worth of sales going back as far as Joe. And I have to admit, I thought every one of them would perform better than they have at their new clubs. So I can’t moan really.

Less the costs of the incoming from Juventus too.

Also worth noting is that the contract amortisation rules don't change until 1st July I think. That would mean any signings now could be stretched out...

I thought they had already reduced it to a maximum of 5 years because of Chelsea dishing out 8 year contracts and amortising deals over that term. Another big reason why they're not in the shit.

Does it? They want a striker to start. Kellyman will be farmed out.

[pablo_picasso]

I would think so.

They don't need Kellyman, but preferred to discuss a deal for him rather than complete the deal for Duran.

I may be wrong though. Hopefully...

That’s my guess too.

You've no idea what they preferred, what discussions have been happening or anything, the same as the rest of us.

No point worrying about it, with the people in charge of the club, and their record to date, I think they will be doing things as well as they can.

Let’s hope the penny drops with big Jhon now and he realises he’s got a lot to work on re: not being such a nightmare to have in your team.

The talent is there in spades, and unlike Donk, Carlos and (for me) Cash, it’s good if he goes, and good if he stays too, as long as he knuckles down

It is my opinion that this has happened based upon the reporting.

I hinted at that with the words "suggest" & "I think".

Meanwhile we are shopping to fill the shelves back up

I think you made a fair assumption there, given the very public dance Duran was doing with Chelsea.
