Net spend could not exceed £49m under UEFA sanctions so I suspect you're doing media numbers which can be good but in some cases inaccurate. If we'd have broken the £49m we'd still be under FFP and sanctioned.

You're also not including agent fees which can be huge (10% in some cases) and need to be factored into the whole FFP equation.

Just a mistake, I meant 79m Euro or about £49m

whatever happens we must keep Mangala. wouldn't swop him for anyone.

Absolutely. I do wonder at times about people on here who say he's shit. They must be watching a completely different player, he's potentially world class

Plus a great touch from him yesterday at half time to step in right next to Fernandinho when Costa was doing his nut.

Cheeseman on BBC North West has just raised the spectre of Eli going to Valencia - 1845 - note the time!

Knows something we don't?

We only have room for one more foreign player over 21 right now. I would look to send Zuculini out on loan again to free up a spot. That way we can get Otamendi and De Bruyne. Sending Lopes or Denayer out doesn't make sense

Surely there is now room for 2? Dzeko and Joveti gone and no foreign replacements apart from under 21's

lets be serious they are going off last season where for most of the season he was very unimpressive,the later end of season started to play ok at best but this season as started off really well
