Weirdly they can look to Charlotte as an example. Within 48 hours of Stengs failing his medical we had Pep Biel on a flight to CLT from Spain.

Signing players is fucking hard, it’s not this fucking hard.

Yep it is when you’re so frugal, Us not paying the asking price is our problem not the club selling.

This has been the Fosun playbook for seasons now, not just once or twice. Surely even the most rusted on can see the pattern here?

You’d be surprised at how many are buying the PSR line.
One being an accountant apparently who thinks because he is then he knows absolutely everything.
Didn’t realise only accountants had the ability to add up on a calculator.

It's where Hobbs is going to invariably start getting people's backs up.

You can't equally backslap about your scouting network and the research you have and then bleat about how hard securing transfers is.
 
This is the pattern now, unless there’s a complete shift in mentality it’s just a case of which of the next 3 season we go down. Could be this one or we could eke it out until the 26/27 season.
 
£20m is too much for Koleosho though. He's only 19 and already had one major injury. Too much of a risk for that price.

Meanwhile, Plymouth want £15m for Morgan Whittaker.
 
It’s inevitable that this season will be a massive struggle I hope we can avoid relegation but it will be hard what’s frustrating is over the years trying too become an established premier league team should be our aim and pushing on for more but it seems that we constantly sell our best players granted for a profit but we never seem too replace them over the years our team is just becoming weaker and the only outcome too this will be what we all dread and if fosun can’t see this then they should just move on and sell us for someone who’s a lot more ambitious
 
Very hard to see us doing any business between now and Friday close of business that would be in the ' worth talking about ' category . There will be some departures no doubt ( permanent / loan ) , of players who can't make a match day squad and are not even close . There might even be an incoming or two of squad players , but nothing major you'd have to suggest .

Work with what we have seems to be the motto .
 
I don't understand why fosun want to have the liquidity. Surely the best distribution is to keep the amount of spare cash to a minimum and have as much capital tied up in the players as possible.

What event can they see where having spare cash would be useful?
 
I've seen suggestions we are limited as Fosun are not putting in the the £30m a season required for PSR freedom. Not sure if thats true though..

Yeah, that's nonsense.

It's a personal guarantee from the owners to cover any losses which I'm sure they will sign.

They just want to operate at a profit and have a healthy balance sheet for a sale. I can't see why they would operate this way otherwise.

Totally agree - we've clearly been up for sale for a long time but either no one is interested or they want too much money..
 
Linked with Mostafa Mohamed now.

Looking forward to us bailing out over 2m quid.
