I sometimes wonder if you’re the greatest wum the forum has given a platform to, then I remember you’re one of those who believes this shit....

He‘s nothing if not entertaining, the forum would be a duller place without good old Marv.

Pray tell, where we get £400m from

Under Sheikh Mansour’s mattress? Otherwise known as the Silver Lake investment.

It's a CFG investment not a transfer fund, and can't be used as income for FFP.

from the back of the sofa hahaha small change to us

If the FFP rules are relaxed this summer (and that's an unknown in itself), we won't be spending £400 million on 3 players. If we did then you can wave goodbye to all of the EDS squad and probably half the U18's. The stars are aligning for the young lads IMO.

We'll be going big for Haaland with maybe a Cancelo like left back. I'm not even certain we'll replace Fern from outside of the club.

haaland would be over £100million then his wages over 5 years. then a left back and a holding midfield player

matey we have the money. plus some more with a new club sponsor on its way
last summer we had £500milion for the messi deal so the money is there. i see a summer when pep sort out the front line and 2 forwards could be signed

I hope you're right, just don't see us spending that much

Out Sterling, Aguero and Mahrez, in Haaland, Messi and Mbappe. Can you imagine the piss boiling :)

hahaha yep the media would be shitting themselves and uefa would be in hiding think of the next plot in FFP rules

i have added wages to the amount so when i quoted £400million. its not that much of a big spend and £400million does not get you much if your signing haaland over 5 to 10 years ?

Last I saw were reports we weren't getting a new sponsor yet and Etihad were extending for a year. We never had £500 mill for Messi, we had the means to finance Messi but that was outside what the club 'had' for other tranfers and still would be . Doubt the net spend will be more than £100 mill.
