General transfer rumours

Both Newcastle and Chelsea have new owners why can't they spend like Chelsea.
Chelsea have an established revenue stream that's comparable to any other side. Newcastle don't, that puts limitations on what they can spend and still comply with ffp.


proper going for it forest, remember fulham doing the same one season, it didnt go too well

They didn't have much choice, they lost about half their starting 11 that got them up so had to replace them at least. it was also nowhere near one of the best squads in the championship, Cooper got them up, wouldn't have stood a chance with minor adjustments. Think is now that they've spent a lot, there's more pressure to stay up and if things aren't going to plan in the first half of the season, there's more chance they'll sack the main reason they're in the Premier league for a firefighter manager. We will see a proper merry-go-round of managers during the world cup as all teams flirting with relegation get twitchy with 4 weeks of no football.
 
Good summary that, it does appear that they are starting a little further back than we did with their signings, with only Trippier & Guimaraes on a similar level so far. It also looks like they are thinking of moving ASM on as he is aggravating for a big contract, and that’s where the problem lies (as we found out) players know the club has plenty of money, if they sign a ‘big’ player on massive money then their problems start, they’ll have to make that leap eventually, no way they make CL football without it. I don’t see our early business as mistakes, more a necessity if you want to do it relatively quick (and we did) we rattled the top clubs to get in there, Newcastle so far are taking a different approach, and they’ve got 7 big teams to get past (if you include the rags) I don’t see them getting CL football for a while yet with their current approach
So 6 big teams then

And thats before they will start with the "offence".. Im not sure how many players they'll end up getting in though, seems like a slog for Boehly.

And its Dumfries today.
