Its fine if clubs spend within their means and don't put up prices (for tickets, concessions, merchandise etc) to cover these outlays instead. Sure. It comes from merchandise sales, shirt sponsorships (both front and sleeve, go Nexen Tire!), stadium naming rights, TV deals, competition prizes, land development around the stadium, Dubai, Russia, etc. When they spend that money on players, it’s no skin off of mine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PAW Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Don't know how consistent he was since I didn't watch Watford much, but every time I did he was a terror. Outside of finishing, was extremely impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian Saint Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 He's a good winger who was tired at the end of last season (played for like 1.5 years straight without a break before the start of last season) but 50M is an overpayment. Talented player but very inconsistent. Far too much to invest 50M imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drd23 Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 So apparently Leicester have made Danny Ward the 15th most expensive keeper in history? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be a logical move for Chelsea, especially if they don't go after Donnarumma. Although I don't expect Leicester to let Kasper go cheaply, especially after his performance in Russia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dotmotion Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Ward for more than 10m is amazing to me. I was expecting 5m for him. Reading now that Ings is on the transfer list too. Would be nice to get some change for him. Gotta get that net spend award too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagles $5$ Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 I'm really jealous of what Monaco does in the transfer window... they are so good at this it's not fair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drd23 Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 So who at Chelsea isn't rumoured to be leaving? Hazard and Courtois are rumoured off to Madrid, a French paper is reporting Kante's agreed personal terms with PSG, Willian is being pursued by Utd and Barca, Morata wants to go to Milan and now Atletico apparently wants Giroud (on loan) Not that I'd expect even half those things to happen, but that is a lot of players apparently looking elsewhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I trust very few sources when it comes to transfer. The day is 24 hours long, you gotta feed the cycle with anything. Like if you just look at SKy Sports News Transfer Centre, the percentage of it that is actually true is supremely low lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
