looking at the website (link above) i am alarmed. Our owners are business men first and foremost and looking athe money we have spent I just wonder how ong it will continue. If we are resigned to losing Balotelli and Tevez we straight away need to spend big money on their replacements. Also getting rid of Ade, AJ, Bridge, RSC will not be easy as their wwages will be a stunbling block for most and loaning them out maybe the only way.

cover for both centerbacks
cover for midfield in yaya and barry
cover for a top goalkeeper it keeps me awake thinking about joe hart getting a ban or something else
the thing is what we have in quality cover is a joke and alot of players sitting on the bench are just not up to it in a champions league team
so a big spend in the summer please
Really lescott is player of the season for me
Problem with this is you won't get 7/8 world class players happy to be cover.
To be honest Lescott and Barry are the people we need on the Bench. We need a top centre half, midfielder and possibly 2 forwards if Tevez and balotelli go.

The big spending has stopped - it stopped in January and this will continue - the priority will have to be reducing debt whilst maintaining CL - we can only spend what we can raise in seliing players it dont work any other way its that simple
To be honest we need to stop thinking we have to spend big we need a decent scouting system - the rags have been bringing in players for years - Hernandez - Wellbeck has done a decent jobbie - Valencia has been a snip at 18 million and Young has played well despite the fact i have always though he was shit (what the fook do i know)
We need to STOP thinking we need to buy world class players - we need quality players with key attribute for this league - pace and good passing abilitiy combined with the abioity to play at a high tempo
That German lad fulham bought or Dempsey these are all top pro's who score goals fooked off with superstars to be honest

Agree completely with this but any new manager will want to stamp his mark on the club especially if we get Jose (who spends big everywqhere) also if Mancini stays he will need to win tropheys so needs players who will hit the ground running, there are cheaper players out there but we will now always pay inflated prices. We made a rod for our own backs in some respects by accepting the stupid prices on the table for players like milner and barry
LoveCity said:I would guess around £80million to £100million. A lot could depend on how much we get for players like Tevez, Adebayor, De Jong, Johnson, and Mario/Dzeko, but the Champions League and Etihad revenue should also mean more money.

I think Mancini or any other manager will get money (I think Mouriniho no matter how unlikely would be given what he wanted within reason)
If Mancini stays (I think he will) i think it would be utter madness to give him anymore than we can realistically afford we have a decent squad and there is no reason why we would not compete next season - and its now time for him to show the owners exactly how good he is
Not quite. If they're classed as 'listed for sale' we can exclude their amortisation. We can also exclude any wages paid under contracts signed prior to June 2010.metalblue said:I thought if a player was transfer listed we could discount that players wages from the costs. Or was it more quantified than player simply being transfer listed in that they needed to be under/over a certain age/ time left on contract?

£100 they all stay.
