We don’t have the finances to spend £40m plus on a player, with the wages they’d demand. Plus the FFP rules come into play ... I don’t profess to understand them, but learned others have pointed them out as a further constraint on the club.
On that negative basis the Albion can’t win, even before a ball is kicked.
It’s often argued that we should look at Championship players, as others had (Bmuff - Brooks). Now we’ve done just that.
We’re not in the same league as West Ham and Leicester who somehow these days find £40m for...
We still have time to get Potter, Jahanbakhsh, Andone, Locadia and Murray out of our club, and they can take Barber (“Barber” said in a very angry tone) with them.
Bloom needs to wake up and smell the coffee.
I noticed that recently.
Strange how the markets rate Newcastle as being in a better place than us, despite the loss of a great coach/tactician, Perez and Rondon (their goals).
