Best make it £500 mill then. seriously I think a right back would be priority, Clichy and Angelino might be given a crack at the left back position.

Correct.
I'd say that's 50/50 at the moment.
If the deals that are done or well advanced all come off then we'll spend that (and those don't include Pogba). There are other potential ones that could push that to well over £400m. Even if Pogba doesn't happen we could easily end up spending something like £375m this summer I believe. Add Pogba or Kroos in and that could be £450m+.
We couldn't spend much the next couple of summers if that's the case unless there's some huge new commercial deals in place but the fact we feel confident that we can spend that amount in one hit suggests there might be some on the way.
The press would have a field day if we spent that much.

You are right - but fuck em
If Denayer comes back as most believe he will I'd imagine he'll make a strong case for right back with Sagna pushing him. I've honestly not seen enough of Angelino to comment wherever he's ready or not. I was hoping Clichy would be a squad member next year with us bringing in a quality starter. I just know we can't go into next season with the same two left backs we've had for what seems about 100 years.Best make it £500 mill then. seriously I think a right back would be priority, Clichy and Angelino might be given a crack at the left back position.

I haven't seen enough of either Denayer or Angelino, to say either way. What I am confident of though is if we don't buy fullbacks it will be because there is a plan to utilise players at the club already one way or another and it won't be because we are relying on the 4 fullbacks we have, or because Pep has overlooked the positions. So all's good.If Denayer comes back as most believe he will I'd imagine he'll make a strong case for right back with Sagna pushing him.

Hows our players wages doing if we spend and sign the amount of players as you think regarding ffp and increase wages?

How have you managed to stay the same age for over four decades?How do you know this PB?
I am strictly an observer and I have zero connections whatsoever; just a 47 year old fan for 44 years.

The main proponent of ffp has been sacked due to infringements of the 'ethics code', I wouldn't be surprised at city welcoming sanctions just so they can put the final nail in that coffin..... FFP is dead as a dodo. I also don't think the club will be best pleased in the millions forked out in fines..
We won't spend anywhere near what PB has alluded to, £200m max in my opinion, however, there will be a marquee signing (:
