But isn't that what we do with our better players ? Sell them on and watch them pick up trophies elsewhere. I though Barber and Bloom had made that quite clear to us., perhaps we just haven't understood it.
Trouble is, I'm not sure we'd get our money back on some of our more recent signings. At best, the profit margin wouldn't be much.

Not sure if we'll be able to invest in new players next season as Man City are now saying we've got an owner subsidising us with personal loans which is against PSR.
Tony has had sizeable dividends/ repayments of his directors loan over the past 18 m. He’s converted some of his loan to shares. He’ll have this issue under control.

The job lot we bought last Summer - apart from Georginio - haven't added much to the mix
And Minteh. Think Gruda and Yalcouye will also end up considered very good signings.

Less sure about the more established players we brought in, Wieffer, O'Riley and Ferdi. Not ruling out success for any of them but so far they're dubious signings in terms of skill and horrible signings considering availability.

Plus two full backs and some defenders with pace
Plus another two DCMs, a no.10 who is significantly better than all the rest so that there is no constant changes of personnel there, and a 25 goal a season striker. And maybe a couple of better wingers. And a GK who saves us more points than he costs us.
Need to be a bit cautious with splashing the cash though.
Still, job's a good 'un, eh?

Just decent PL defenders will do.

No it isn’t. All the new rule means is that an interest charge will be made against our PSR calc equivalent to what a bank might charge, even though no interest charge is made in real life. So for TB’s outstanding loan, that’s about 15m that’ll be added to our PSR costs.
 




The job lot we bought last Summer - apart from Georginio - haven't added much to the mix
It’s a statistically average 2-2-1-2 for me, Georgy and Minteh successes, Wieffer and O’Riley not shown enough to be worth the money; Gruda could go either way; and Kadi/Yalcouye jury not seen the evidence yet

Can we get rid of our entitled fans who circled after each defeat and suggest tearing up the project we are working on and doing it differently?

I think they are more suited at other premier league clubs, can we ask Chelsea, Spurs or United to take them?

Not that old chestnut “the project…”

How’s our project going, when did it start and when does it finish, compared to say Villa, Forest, Leicester, Palace, B’muff…anyone else frankly? And besides, isn’t it now “the Process?”

I am surprised you haven't noticed but it is going pretty well. It started when we were in league 1 playing in an athletics track. Our wonder, his name is Tony Bloom has projected us from their through the Championship and into the premier league. There is more: We are now an established Premier League team, had a little taste of Europe and we are now knocking on the door for another.

We have done so well there is a near mythical film coming out about the 'process' we have gone through.
