We have no money because the club has been quite dumbfolding holding on to Benteke for years now. They could have swapped him to Chelsea for Batshuayi, sold him for 20 million to China 1 year ago, even to Brugge this window for 10 million, as per what dazza said. Yet no, they keep holding on to him and his value dropping. From 30 to 20, from 20 to 15, from 15 to 10...and they give him more 120k a week in a new contract!! There are also Townsend and Meyer who could bring in money. Townsend was wanted by Newcastle who would have paid 15 million. Now I like Townsend, I really do, he's my favourite player in the "thick your favourite player box", but those would be the money to sign Bowen. Would I prefer a 28-29 year old left footed right winger or a 23 year old one (Bowen) who would do pretty much the same things? And Meyer would still be sellable for about 10 million in the Bundesliga and a big salary off. Keeping him longer is just bad. Just get someone better for 10 million and that salary (Richter, German U21, Ryan Christie maybe etc.))

We may have dodged a bullet on this one, he hasn’t signed for West Ham yet, but is making outrageous wage demands and saying Newcastle is his club of choice. What kind of attitude is that ?

We sold AWB for near 50m so we do have some money. Curious to know what rate of interest we're paying? I haven't seen anything on this, but may have missed something.

Apparently he does not like threat of 50% pay cut if they go down.

A couple of posts on this page have genuinely tickled me in what are seriously infuriating circumstances, they should be obvious, kudos!
Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |
