Thick end of £30m

[njmackem]

Ritchie is the one that is a big surprise to me, stepping down etc.

Massively inflated prices, but I guess, all fees will be inflated this year.

Troy Deeney at 25m though, even inflated thats firkin crazy money.

 

[Baccyboozenbullets]

They'll win the league by a mile IMO

They want to hope they do for FFP reason as if not and they get stuck in that league for even just the one season it may just cripple the club. I agree with you marra they should have enough to get up the first time of asking but we no better than anyone things don't always turn out the way you plan.

 

[meeowdam]

Looks like the mags will be throwing some cash about

f***ing Groundhog Day man!!!

 

[Patch Lafayette]

This is the same as when they splashed the cash and signed Andy Thorn, John Robertson, Dave Beasant etc. Or something like that!!

 

[LD19SAFC]

Can't wait to see them fail. Looks like they are going to throw another boat load of money at trying to come up first time and if it doesn't happen it will have disastrous consequences for the future of that club.

They'll piss the league IMO. Hope I'm wrong

 

[Baccyboozenbullets]

I hope they're not going for 2 relegations in a row. That would really finish me off with football.

It that happens I'd be well jealous the bastards always seem to out do us some how!

 

[Fetch Fletch]

So that's £110m spent now. Plus whatever ridiculous wages they've paid Rafa (in love my arse!).

Did Leeds even do this when they dropped?

 

[DrewC]

Looks like the mags will be throwing some cash about

When league One comes they will find out they flushed down the bog

 

[Mallard]

Kone, Khazri & Kirchhoff. £15m was that?

I remember one said none of them would get into their team, this was after they were relegated.

 

[gatopreto]

If they fail to get promoted it will be one of the biggest domestic footballing failures of all time.
The mammoth cost of their squad and their colossal wage budget (compared to their championship competitors) should absolutely guarantee promotion unless they are seriously badly mismanaged.

It must be difficult for them to feel any sense of achievement next season for the manager, fans, players alike. However if it goes wrong they will be remembered forever. There'd be no defending it, absolutely no excuses.

 

[richest]

Tbh you don't know how Ritchie will do or Gayle remember people thinking Shelvey was a hell of a signing that worked out well

Spot on.

No certainty.
They will fail or get injured

That's the amazing thing, they are not worried at all! Arrogance leads to a bigger fall hopefully.

 

[Lewberry pie]

They'll win the league by a mile IMO

This is what I think as well

 

[Bear]

Downing moving to Boro was hailed as a great signing for that division too. Yes Boro won promotion (just) but what I hear he was far great

 

[Hatful Of Hollow]

They should absolutely piss the league.

 

[Perryqhill]

Remember though - you need a big squad when you've European games to fit in as well..............

Cardiff?

 

[Tin Soldier]

This is what I think as well

Why ? Based on what ? Why are we bed wetting about them on here because they might squire 2 new players ?

Why ? Based on what ? Why are we bed wetting about them on here because they might aquire 2 new players ?

But they are certain to fail or get injured.........stone me lol

 

[Lewberry pie]

I'm not bed wetting I just think their squad is going to be miles better than everyone else's, fingers crossed they do what Blackburn did when they went down though

That squad couldn't beat Norwich or Villa when it mattered and they are in the same league ?
