Most if this will be in next year's account notification period.Replacing half the first team and still making a profit is all good in my eyes.
Revenue is the important one where Football clubs are concerned. You don’t actually want huge profits if you’re a fan. 20% increase in turnover is huge as it allows us to buy the players we want and pay them accordingly.I don't need a lesson lol,i'm not up on how much the top teams profits are,perhaps someone else is?

Thanks,i'm looking at this the wrong wayRevenue is the important one where Football clubs are concerned. You don’t actually want huge profits if you’re a fan. 20% increase in turnover is huge as it allows us to buy the players we want and pay them accordingly.
Doesn't include the summer transfers, this is at the bottom, so I assume next years figures will need to cover the amortised version of the £161 mill net spend which I guess is about £30 mill /year we will need to find.
28. EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING DATE Since the year end the Club has entered into agreements to acquire the football registrations of Ederson Santana de Moraes (from Benfica), Kyle Walker (from Tottenham Hotspur FC), Benjamin Mendy (from AS Monaco FC), Danilo Luiz da Silva (from Real Madrid C.F.), Bernardo Silva (from AS Monaco FC), Douglas Luiz Soares de Paulo (from CR Vasco da Gama), Olarenwaju Kayode (from FK Austria Wien), Ivan Ilic (from Red Star Belgrade), Luka Ilic (from Red Star Belgrade) and Uriel Antuna (from Santos Laguna). The football registrations of Wilfried Bony (to Swansea City AFC), Kelechi Iheanacho (to Leicester City FC), Manuel Agudo Durán (to Sevilla FC), Fernando Francisco Reges Mouta (to Galatasaray SK), Samir Nasri (to Antalyaspor), Aleksandar Kolarov (to AS Roma), Jadon Sancho (to Borussia Dortmund), Olivier Ntcham (to Celtic FC), Rubén Sobrino (to Deportivo Alavés) and Bruno Zuculini (to Hellas Verona FC) have been sold. The net expenditure on these transactions was approximately £161m.
But will also include, as income, the sales of those players which are all booked in the year. The sales of Nacho and Kola would cover that amortisation figure alone. We’ll actually be in profit on the trading this year when you add Sancho’s fee and a few others.Doesn't include the summer transfers, this is at the bottom, so I assume next years figures will need to cover the amortised version of the £161 mill net spend which I guess is about £30 mill /year we will need to find.
Revenue is higher than the sub-£450m I expected but the net profit is a lot lower than the £28m I estimated. I'll have a good look at the accounts and report back.
Yes I don't fully understand it, I was just deviding the net figure given by 5 to get a rough idea, I assume also getting players like Sterling and Debruyne on extended contracts will bring down our amortised fees as well, the older players like Silva and Fernandinho too to a lesser extent.But will also include, as income, the sales of those players which are all booked in the year. The sales of Nacho and Kola would cover that amortisation figure alone.
