The Fish 8989 Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 On 12/05/2018 at 16:41, Howay said: I get what Fish is saying but I think to be fair to Leicester in that particular season they were the best team. There were factors such as the usual top sides having an off season and usual service has since resumed. Still astounding that a defence as shite as Simpson, Huth, Morgan, and Fuchs won the league mind, but as Quiff mentions they do have quality such as Vardy, Mahrez, Kante, and even Drinkwater (albeit excelling in a very restricted role). I do absolutely go against Fish’s comment about Navas being better than Mahrez, in fact I demand an apology for that one. Navas is the poster boy of not having any end product whatsoever. I’m a big fan of Sterling though and have always thought he was quality, in that particular season Mahrez was better but overall I prefer Sterling. Even the quality you mention, for those few to deliver the title is unheard of when they’re paired with shit like Simpson. I guess it’s semantics, but I look at their squad and it’s a miracle they won the league, a miracle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a solid enough full-back and was part of the team that finished 5th for us. Even Man Utd won titles with some players that weren't exactly world beaters.

Kid Dynamite 5912 Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 By my calculations we will have £50mil profit this season. But with last year's relegation, loss of TV money and the Murphy, Merino, Lejeune, Atsu, Manquillo and Joselu signings we could be back to £0. Nee chance we are spending £50mil+ this summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

essembeeofsunderland 811 Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 MOTD last night reported Ashley has said all money generated will go to Rafa for new signings.Haven't we just generated £100m plus through finishing 10th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitman 2188 Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 I expect Ashley is referring to the clubs net profit not its revenue. In Ashleys world,the cost of new signings is the transfer fee AND the cost of the accumulated wages over their contract. So even if 50 mill were available, it would probably only equate to a couple of bang average signings. I honestly think sales will be as important as the so called war chest. If Rafa can shift the duffers/out of favour players/loanees it will get some cash in and lower the wage bill...making new signings more palatable to the fat wanker.

Sorry for causing a heart attack but isn’t it 66 days from now on as the window does close on August 9th due to the new regulations?
