The January New Manager Warchest Transfer Thread

[N'ZMAV]

a few out isn't a bad idea anyway, regardless if it's for FFP purposes or not.

Trez plus AEG plus  Nakamba.  There is £3.50 right there.   

that's wishful thinking

What's Hause done?

Dunno.

I’ve read an article somewhere saying that we are currently only a few million away from FFP rules limit so does that mean unless we clear a few out first in January, there isn’t a big war chest for new regime ?

Sensationalist nonsense. It said it was only up to the 20/21 season, so missing our TV income, the Grealish money, ...

I memtioned earlier that I've seen another saying we've £205m to play with. The one by that liverpudlian academic that says about us having only £5m I think also says the only club with an even smaller budget is Newcastle, who I'm pretty sure, thanks to their previous owner's renowned parsimony, actually have quite some leeway in the market.

if we got away with FFP before then I can't see it being an issue now

Phew, thanks for the correction , hope you’re right, would love more signings and some moved on again, especially as board want to see consistent improvements

Glen Kamara and Ryan Kent. Hold onto your hats, this is gonna be a rollercoaster of being linked with the top footballers in European football. 

[PaulWinch again]

Lazy journalism I suspect. Kent especially, why on earth would we need a winger.

[sickbeggar]

yeah I'm more disappointed by the inference by the press that we'll buying in the bargain basement. What's wrong with some lazy journalism involving top players?

[Sexual Ealing]

As far as I understand it, and I'm always wrong, FFP is only relevant in the Championship (and the rest of the EFL) and in European competitions.

[Drummond]

I suspect Kent is linked because he followed Gerrard from Liverpool and seems to do well for him. Trez and AEG are likely to go..

Kamara, well everyone wants another midfielder .....

[sickbeggar]

Being linked with Lingard now.. I take it back. Lets have another look at those Rangers players.

[Demitri_C]

Karama is actually a decent player id be hapoy with him.

Kent isnt a improvement on what we have.

Gerrards a huge name in the game he can attract top players here

[steamer]

Lingard for the Hammers, please

[Dave P]

Would you turn your nose up at Lingard?  Don't think I would.

[sickbeggar]

Kamara you're shopping in the Nakamba market. Could come off but is the SPL more of a dead cert than the Dutch or Belgium league for quality? I'd hope we'd be looking at better

So who we dropping and what formation? He's an Attacking centre midfielder mainly so its getting a bit crowded in there. Man U have the same problem as us as they have either bobbins (McFred) or attacking midfielders/wingers so i'm not surprised they want to cash in.
