As it’s just a few fans on there site that started saying it all and then a few newspapers have jumped on it… So I really don’t know about this one |  |

Reading their fans' comments there, it's not a rumour they want to start: CharlieLWHU ⚒ @CharlieLWHU · 30m It gets worse… first Maguire now this. |  |

Forget all of that as about the one consistently good player we had is now gone! https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/articles/c281lldx9xro.amp It’s just a question now as to whether or not the rumours about him playing his last game for us against Norwich is true or not |  |

Yeah well everyone’s saying it’s £30m, but still it’s down to how we spend that money now as to how well we do. As if we do sell Lavia and us all this transfer money we’ve made to bring in Piro, that Sunderland striker and someone to replace Prowse, then yeah well it won’t have been the worst bit of business |  |

Why do you think we will be spending more than a fraction of all of this money? We are now in a league with far smaller revenues than the PL and have to pay for our £160m transfer net spend of last season. |  |

Last I head Hamer was delaying signing a new contract at Cov. He’s good but not sure he’s the answer. I think we need someone with solid PL and international experience in midfield. We still haven’t replaced Romeu really and if Latvia is off we are going to need some proper backbone. Getting JWP’s replacement right will likely define our season. |  |

Ok but even then, for everyone we’ve gotten rid of so far, as well as the inevitable sale of Lavia, that is like £160m already, and I’m sure that we’ll be able to get in those 3 with those sorta funds |  |

I really hoped JWP would stay as he is the heart beat of the team. If we lose Lavia and Smallbone as well then we really need to splash the cash. I’m not sure Charles is quite ready and the fear is we bring in another unproven youngster. |  |

I would be surprised if we spend much more. We'll have to largely to make do with what's left after the firesale. Our debt is approaching a quarter of a billion and for comparison a mid-table Championship team like QPR has yearly total revenues from ticket sales, tv, sponsorship etc of £20m per year. |  |

Ok but right now we’re not a team expected to Finnish mid table, and are selling more tickets this season in the championship than we did last season in the prem! And with Lavia looking like he’ll be joining the list for sales, then that’s us hitting around a quarter or a billion quid we’ve made in sales this transfer market alone! As I think we’ll need to be spending at least another £60m-£100m this transfer market if we’re to fill in the holes properly and keep our genuine promotion hopes alive. |  |

A quarter of a billion quid??!!?? Eh??? Don’t forget Chelsea and City’s cut of the sales of Livramento and Lavia…. |  |

We've made a quarter of a billion in transfer fees this window? What are you smoking! You're going to be VERY disappointing if you think we'll spend anywhere near £100m. We're not in the PL anymore. Average Championship yearly transfer spend is around one tenth of that! |  |

I think maths wasnt the refs strongest point. I reckon if Lavia goes, saints will have sold 125mill of talent once you take into account clauses. |  |

Yeah tbf I was looking at my post earlier, but that’s including all the potential transfers that could happen 😂 But still, we have now made with the sales of Lavia and Prowse included, around £150m, and that’ll only get bigger when we sell ABK and probably Sulemana as well, which would probably send it to just below £200m. |  |

Well Tbf I did actually study maths at college 😂🤦🏻♂️, but nah I was looking at all the potential transfers that could be happening as well, which is where the extra £100m came from, but if we chuck in all the transfers that look like they’re gonna be happening this week then it is something like £150m we’ve made so far |  |

With clauses once jwp and Lavia go that’s about 125mill saints have raised. Half of a quarter of a billion. After that there’s not many players left that demand fees in excess of 20mill |  |
