he`s had a huge return already if they wanted it when they sold shares in the group to China & the Americans? The club is also sustainable and posts profits and its portfolio is growing further and has become the benchmark in the football world.

Or he's going to get bored and do one?
Your posts mate are something else.

I've not checked but I'd guess it's the same idiots posting nonsense in the Vikki Kloss thread.

The link below shows the approximate quality and quantity of the top football squads Worldwide. It will become a lot clearer on 1st of September when players have been loaned out and the window closes. There are 6 players on our list who won’t be there then (not sure who some of them are!) and 4 additions (3 academy and Cuc) to come so the final number could be around 24.
I’ve no idea what the ideal squad size is for a top club but it does reinforce the idea that we have quality over quantity. “Depth“ is subjective and you would think is a combination of the two measures.
You don’t want vast quantities of rubbish you can’t shift (see United) but you also don’t want to suffer adversely from a few injuries either.
Interested to see what posters think is an ideal squad number. I’m sure you only register a certain number anyway. I guess it’s 25 plus players under 21 so we might have a few gaps. I guess as many as 4 would be under 21 taking us to 20 leaving 5 spaces unfilled.

You can't really see it in a post mate, only comes across one way.

He's on a Arry Redknapp style 20% of all transfer income received ;) topping the pension fund up nicely.

I do feel like we are going in light even if we sign Cucurella. But I also bear in mind we have 5 subs rule this year and wonder if that's something that is being taken onto account by the club. It certainly is by Pep. It gives a lot more flexibility to give different players rest over the season and bring in more EDS players.
