    When you add in the £200m City spent in Jan, this is pretty stark. The only real surprise is Sunderland spending so much but they absolutely needed to.

    Fulham at 400k is wild, but they’re rumoured to be in for about five players atm, including Nelson and Zinchenko from us. So that will rise.

     
  2. Spurs number is a little inflated because Danso and Tel loans becoming permanent. Outside of that we’ve really only spent on Kudus. Simply not enough. We need 2 more signings minimum. Especially now that Maddison is out….again.

    I’d say all teams will end up spending over/well over 50m this summer which is insane

    Partey got granted bail today, and Romano posted a “here we go” of him going to Villarreal about half hour later. Grim.

  5. This would be a good move for Villa

    Be twice the ocean. Be twice the land.

    Glad he gets bodied by Ornstein on every major announcement these days.

  8. I’ve changed my team again and this time I feel pretty good about it. Ndiaye being so cheap opened up some funds.

    I thought the full chart would be of interest to the thread.

  10. Apparently El Khannouss has a £22m release clause which feels like a steal. Spurs probably need a level above him but I wouldn’t be mad at it.

    That looks a bit nuts for us, but we’ve done all our buying and none of our selling tbf. Viera, Zinchenko, Nelson, and possibly Trossard are all heavily linked with moves atm.

  15. Newcastle apparently pivoting to Nicolas Jackson

    Please, please can we get the Villa Grealish. On loan, like.

  18. Grealish on loan to cover the 10 spot would be cool with me. And makes sense. But if he’s the Son replacement then I’ll probably hate it.

    Dubravka will have 50%+ ownership in FPL now he's joining Burnley.

    I was trying to describe myself to someone

    Man that's going to feel like such a step down...

    Apparently Isak has been told to train alone and has been barred from the club's family day as well. What an absolute shitshow.

    I can just imagine Isak being sent to somewhere like Gateshead to train alone. I'd imagine it's only a matter of time before we get an update from Ornstein.

    Feels kind of bad to see someone who's been such a big part of the team the last couple of years get dumped out like that, but it also makes you wonder what's been going on in private for him to have ended up training at Sociedad and then bombed out of the place once the squad comes back from tour.

    All very disappointing.

    I’m sad we won’t see United end up with a front three including both Jackson and Cunha. At any point one of them is bound to be sent off or suspended.

    Pepe scoring v Arsenal on Gyökeres' big day. Somethings are meant to be.

    I know preseason is more about fitness, but being 2-0 down to Villarreal inside 35 minutes isn’t exactly inspiring me with confidence that we’ll be good this season
