We don't need a CB because Otamendi has not left. We don't need a right back because Danilo has not left.I’m not going to get excited about this one as I just don’t see how we can afford him and most of the Portuguese papers reporting the deal is close have been proven to be full of shit when it came to Bruno fernandes.
We are hoping to sign a replacement for fern for around £60 mil, a cb to replace Kompany which will cost at least £60 mil and seemingly in for Cancelo for £40 mil or so.
I see felix as a luxury we sadly cannot afford especially with all the attacks on the club at the moment.
I would love to keep otamendi I’m a huge fan of his but the reports certainly seem to suggest we are after a cb (sam lee, mullock, Martin Blackburn etc all reporting this) Guess it depends on whether Danilo and otamendi are happy to stay if that is the case then Yes felix is feasibleWe don't need a CB because Otamendi has not left. We don't need a right back because Danilo has not left.
I think in Portugal that report meant to be a net earning like 5m net per year. To get that you have to earn around 10m here in UK. Thats close to be 200.000 per week.

Thanks I hadn’t noticed that. I was replying to the poster who was talking specifically about otamendi. If ota is happy to stay then an option mooted is Fernandinho to operate as 4th choice cb with Garcia which would then leave us with the funds to potentially sign felixErm vinny just left

Think we have the funds either way, as long as we only spend £50 ish mill on replacing Otamendi. In the case of De Ligt wages and agent fees seem more of a concern than fee.Thanks I hadn’t noticed that. I was replying to the poster who was talking specifically about otamendi.

Portugal finish today, and Spain tomorrow so I’d expect some movement second half of the week.This was ssuppsup to be decisive week for Rodri too.Wait will continue

Will depend who you are and who your national manager is. No big deal either way they’ll sign when they sign.Why? Hazard signed for Madrid while he was away with Belgium. Transfers can happen at anytime. Nothing to do with where they are in the world or who they are training with.
I’m not saying we are struggling for cash ffs. I’m saying due to the farcical ffp rules we can only spend a certain amount.Didn’t know we were struggling for cash
So how much can we spend?I’m not saying we are struggling for cash ffs. I’m saying due to the farcical ffp rules we can only spend a certain amount.
I’m not sure but my point is felix is very much a luxury where as a replacement for vinnie and Fernandinho is very much a necessity and will cost us most probably at least £120 millionSo how much can we spend?

But your whole premise around who we should or shouldn't buy appears to be based on your belief that we can't afford it, yet you actually don't have any idea if we can or not?I’m not sure but my point is felix is very much a luxury where as a replacement for vinnie and Fernandinho is very much a necessity and will cost us most probably at least £120 million
