[Football] Raphael Dwamena RIP

[BensGrandad]

We have apparently spent £50m this summer, Huddersfield £40m but bought 10 players to do so. I must admit I was very surprised to hear it as I would have said United , City Arsenal and Everton spent more

 

[chaileyjem]

This is before the £10-£12m for RD which would indeed put Albion at 3rd.

From lots of different quarters. That is the nature of sport.

Everyone who works has people critiquing and appraising their work performance all the time.

I'm glad they're not as blunt as you are TB !

I was told that we are the 3rd biggest spenders in the Premier this summer, is that correct?

I see you've replaced the digging spade with a fishing rod ?

 

[BensGrandad]

That listing shows as 5th but sold nobody and not sure it includes Dwamena . If not our deficit would be greater than Leicester and Everton and put us in 3rd so perhaps the person who told me is a lttle confused between actual spending and transfer deficit.,.

4 sides have spent over £100 million !!

Shame we can't get our money back on some of them

I said it didn't include RD. if it did it would put us 3rd but other clubs are making signings all the time and these tables are all guess work really. As nobody really discloses fees anymore. PS: despite everyone under impression that they wrapped up business months ago. And we are the only ones left buying players in August ! - there still seems to be a lot of big transfers being completed at both ends of the table.

Chelsea have but recouped £110m and as I said perhaps the person who told me this has got confused between spending and transfer trading deficit.

Chelsea gavce but recouped £110m and as I said perhaps the person who told me this has got confused between spending and transfer trading deficit.

They can only mean net transfer spending. Based on that and today only probably given the flurry of deals, we are indeed 3rd as he said.

Puts us top of the league of the clubs who have not yet spent crazy money. Together with extended contracts for key players already in the squad this should represent a solid attempt to stay in the Premier League, provided the new purchases deliver what was expected of them.

I am glad that I am not totally wrong , which will upset a few. Just hope that it all prove s worthwhile spending. and to be money well spent
