[...] Burnley are willing to take a bid and the Geordies are the only horse in the race as West Ham are now looking elsewhere while Leicester focus on a short-term loan solution.

Our challenge is king power not investing to the same level as other owners if you're comparing like for like but then I'm not sure spending ridiculous money is in any way sustainable.

That will always (currently) be our issue. KP wanting us to be sustainable and not chucking huge money in year upon year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BKLFox Posted 23 January 2022 Share Posted 23 January 2022 Arsenal after Vlahovic who would be an exceptional signing although he prefers Juventus or Man C. I honestly think he’s a better all rounder than Haaland & would rather Man C came in for him than Arsenal get him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure accurate this is, but if true, looking specifically at Villa, then FFP is dead https://www.givemesport.com/1784386-premier-league-transfer-window-how-much-each-club-can-spend-under-ffp-rules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The money they got for Grealish won't even touch the sides with the money they've spent since coming up on transfer fees and wages. Fair play to their owners for going for it and spending money but like others have said, it isn't sustainable and if their owners got bored and decided to leave they'd be bankrupt within a few months. KP have always made sure that our club is sustainable and whilst it can be frustrating when we see so many other clubs spending way more than us, we know the financial future of our club is secure even if KP do leave us in the future. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes and really we should also accept the league position that will ultimately average us out at. I think the next few seasons will be painful for us fans as we see other clubs outspend us and out perform us while we remain prudent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You never know if the selling club has spotted something amiss, and want to cash in while they still can. Maybe losing pace, or going to too many nightclubs. On the face of it, looks a great signing for the Geordies, time will tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrispinLA in Texas Posted 26 January 2022 Share Posted 26 January 2022 (edited) Tarkowski can be signed for free in the summer than why would anyone pay 30m for him now that about that's nearly 7.5 mil a month till the end of the season for him excluding wages.... crazy! Burnley fans on Twitter posts say he's been s*** all season for them and wish he had got sold last summer Edited 26 January 2022 by CrispinLA in Texas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
