torryowl Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Who in there right mind would give contracts that can match what they earn here ......if rhodes is on 30k and we offered to pay 50% I think we'd still struggle to find someone to pay him the other 15 k. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The poor lad is managing the club with his hands tied behind his back. Will save you an awful lot of money in the long run as well. Thanks Yeah, poor Monk. Shipped out 7 forwards and now we don't have enough. Nothing he could have done! No one could have seen this coming! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pay them up and move them out. Pirlo just did similar at Juve. It is an option. Add Reach to that list, even if we have to take minimum transfer fees just get rid. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blatter Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 50 minutes ago, striker said: Agree, but apart from Van Aken maybe (considering he was loaned last season) the others a legacy of the stupid wages we offered, can't see many takers without a financial compromise on our part. Don't think we deliberately stockpile players, but a side effect of poor recruitment in the early days of DC's reign. Sounds like we're more frugal now on wages offered. I'd also definitely look to move on Rhodes, even though we've no other forwards, a complete waste of space and Reach doesn't fit the system and looks clueless. We're going to be paying players 100% of their wages to sit in the bench, may as well claw back as much of that as possible. In westwood, Rhodes, reach and van aken there is the thick end of £75k pw (£3.9m pa) not going to get a game and contribute anything whatsoever. What you’re actually suggesting is that Chansiri pays for our players to play for somebody else. Maybe even one of our rivals in the Championship. Let’s face it they’re not good enough to play in the Premier League. He needs permanent transfers, I can understand his thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Animis Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Hopefully our 2018/19 accounts will have been completed and ready for submission to the EFL, which include the ground sale - once fixed our financial position should look very good and the club should be able to bring in two or three good players, including a quality forward or two.

To be fair and for a change, that is a fekkin reyt good reason to panic. 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
