Over 20m profit in transfers this summer. 13:31 - Aug 9 with 3365 viewsSwans9

The club has gained over 42m this summer in players leaving and spent 22m. I will be stunned if we don't buy a centre half by the end of the transfer window.

Over 20m profit in transfers this summer. on 14:35 - Aug 9 by Kerouac

Posted this in another thread but it's more appropriate here,
I came to the same conclusion as you regarding our spend so far, from the info we know (none of us can guess at any hidden costs unless there are directors posting on here) something like...

1) I would be looking at signing someone who can play anchor man in midfield and centre-half.
I would consider this player the emergency 4th centre-half and run with 2 from Amat, Fede and van der Hoorn, with the other on the bench.
So primarily he should be the dogs bollocks at anchor man.

If that bloke from Anderlecht fits the bill, great.

2) I would be looking at loaning a youngster like Chambers who can cover full-back and centre-half....and I would be looking at paying only a fraction of his wages (as it would be us doing them and the player a favour)



If we do these 2 things and secure Baston + someone like Chadli/Ziyech our squad will be looking stronger than I would have expected it to look.

So...

Out

Eder - £5m
Gomis - £ years wages (approx. £3.5m)
Bartley - £ years wages (approx. £750k
Paloschi - £6.5m
Ash - £12m
Ayew - £20.5m
Total = £48m approximately

In

Leroy Fer - £2.5m
Llorente - £5m
Baston - £15m
van der Hoorn - £2m
Aussie Keeper - £Free
Chadli/Ziyech - £12m approx.
Anchor man who covers centre-back - £8m approx.
Chambers or similar on loan - £300k tops

Total = £45m approx.


Leaves us £2.5m quid or so UP with a revamped squad and cover everywhere.

C'mon Huw, you know it makes sense.

What we do with the money received in transfer fees this summer will give us a huge clue into the intentions of this new board.

If you include that you have to include Cork, Naughton, Ayew, Eder, Tabanou and Nordfeldt as they were bought after that money was guaranteed.
