He is probably quoting about £100m+ for Kane in his last year (who he clearly and falsely thinks might sign a new contract) and then puts a derisory offer in for two England internationals.

Polarboy 2124 Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 (edited) The best thing about competing with Spuds for a player is that Levy is always likely to offer less than you. Edited June 15, 2023 by Polarboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aimaad22 3472 Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 4 hours ago, Howay said: I’ve long thought these figures were FFP ones and not traditional “war chests”. As ewerk says the payment structure doesn’t matter for FFP, it’s simply the fee paid + contract amortized over the length of the player contract the timing of when cash is paid doesn’t factor in. I agree that it’s most likely FFP yearly amortization number though so £75m would get you a number of £40m players. The issue I have is none of these journalists frame it up that way, they act like it’s £75m in fees this window which is absurdly low. If we actually do just spend a total of $75M it would be akin in terms of lost opportunity to what Ashley did after the season we finished 5th and signed Anita or whoever. Don't see it happening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully he's their replacement for Barella. I think they are different and complementary players. In fact, yesterday they played together. I read this morning that Inzaghi has asked to sign players to continue in the project (he wants Lukaku and Milinkovic Savic), and the boss have told him that sales will be necessary to sign them. It would not be unreasonable to think that they really negotiate for Barella, although then the rate will be much higher than the 50M they said yesterday (which I don't care because we have money for punishment).

Looking at the line up for last night's game, assuming that the BBC line up is accurate given I didn't watch the game live, Frattesi played right side of midfield which is where Barella usually plays for Inter. Regardless I think it's probably safe to say they can play in the same team, but also both operate as an 8 in that right side of midfield. Having looked Fratessi does generally play left in the midfield three for Sassuolo, but he's right footed so again I see no reason why he couldn't take Barella's position at Inter. Anyway it's mere speculation at this stage, but I don't think it's out of the realms of possibilty that Fratessi will be Barella's replacement. It seems clear, as you mentioned, that they need to sell to buy. Whether they'll flog Barella who's probably their most salable asset is the question.

Johnson is only 22 and scored 8 goals with 3 assists last season in a team that struggled. To those Newcastle fans who are calling for Allan Saint-Maximin's departure, it's important to reflect on the value of loyalty. Saint-Maximin has been a dedicated player for the club, long before the influx of all this big money. During the era of darkness, he consistently entertained us with his magical performances, bringing excitement to the pitch and reminded as that light does still exist in this world. Let's not forget the loyalty he has demonstrated by staying committed to the club during challenging periods. Instead of pushing for his exit, let's show him the loyalty he deserves and appreciate the incredible entertainment he has provided us as a true Newcastle talent. . . . . Now as for you, @wykikitoon, No one wants to see a team full of 11 workhorses on the pitch. Like the late Johan Cruijf once said. "Results without beauty is boring." Every team needs an artist, and in his holiness, Allan SAINT Maximin, we have our artist. In the vast canvas of football, Allan Saint-Maximin is a captivating painting, each brushstroke revealing his exquisite skills and electrifying style. With a palette of talent at his disposal, he paints a portrait of brilliance on the field. His brush dances with finesse and flair, capturing the essence of speed. The vivid hues of his lightning-fast pace streak across the canvas, leaving opponents in his wake. Like a gust of wind, he surges forward, weaving effortlessly through the chaos, displaying a mastery of dribbling that mesmerizes spectators. His every touch of the ball is a delicate stroke, an expression of his artistic control. With another deft flick of his brush, Saint-Maximin adds the element of unpredictability to his masterpiece. He possesses a repertoire of tricks and feints that are as alluring as they are effective. His body becomes an extension of his artistry, as he spins and turns, leaving defenders bewildered and searching for answers. Like a magician, he conjures opportunities out of thin air, creating space where there was none. The intensity of his brushstrokes reflects his boundless energy and relentless work rate. Saint-Maximin is a tireless presence on the field, always tracking back to defend and providing support for his teammates. His commitment and determination shine through, adding depth to his painting, as he embodies the spirit of a true competitor. In this grand artwork, Allan Saint-Maximin's skills are a tapestry of grace, power, and brilliance. His painting is a celebration of the beautiful game, a testament to the artistry and skill that defines football at its finest 6 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
