Never late in a V8
Come Saturday when the teamsheet is out, no Caicedo, Liverpool fans will see that as they have got him. Twitter will go into meltdown until they find out hes suspended.
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊

Can someone please explain how £70m fits into UEFA FFP rules; 90% reducing to 70% over 3 years?
I know it’s all bollocks and that they and the other top 6 plus Real etc will play the game, assemble expensive lawyer teams, challenge UEFA, and eventually settle for 10 bob in 2030, but let’s indulge the letter of the regulations and just pretend they may want to comply.
They have annual income of £500m or so, and this article suggests their player wage bill will be £314m. Chuck in some agents fees and other salaries and doubt you are far short of £400m. That leaves £100m to play with, 70% of which on one player?

It’s amortised over the length of a contract isn’t it ? So if a 5 year deal - £14M a year
We’d get about 7 gems from that warchest.

That silly wages figure is on Arsenal-Mania too in their transfer thread.

FSG have never put in a $ to subsidise transfers over true income, unlike all the EPL financial dopers. As result they tend to mainly operate at the Gakpo transfer level of £35m, usually unable to buy Galactico’s such as Maguire, Cucurella, Lukaku, Pepe, Kepa, Grealish, Sancho. VVD the obvious exception.
Club income’s heading towards £550m, the club is always profitable other than relatively modest losses in the two pandemic seasons.
Liverpool had a net spend last summer of £4.6m which was 16th in the EPL, both Chelsea and ManU net spent over £200m.

It worries me how many people believe that figure, which I think originally comes from a site called Sportrac (no me neither). I mean we’ve got internationals Caicedo and Sanchez on 3.5K and 10K at one end of the scale, and Lallana at the other on nearly 100K.
Not everything you read on the internet is true, guys.

Listen to me!!!
I would be extremely disappointed with the club if we sell Caceido and/or Macallister in January. A big chance of top 6 and Europe and if we are intent on improving and moving to the next level, we need to keep hold of our best players for longer.

I cant see us selling prized assets in January, it puts the onus on the buying club to offer much higher fees as there is less negotiation time. Regardless of that clubs just don't want to sell their best players mid way though a season. We all know that Tony doesn't like the January window to do business.
Spotrac in the UK is incredibly unreliable. @Jolly Red Giant used to quote it and it was miles off almost all the time.
It's a bit better in the US where contract details are a bit more in the public domain.
I always question anyone who States as a fact any salary of a player. It's made up crap.
Even Dunk's "match up" increases is made up crap. When a squad of players haven't a clue what each is earning how someone sitting in their bedroom can pluck a figure plainly stupid.
