We were allowed to do a net spend of 49m and very quickly spent about 51m on Octopus, Mangala and big willy, then got about 2m for Barry.
But then we sold Garcia 13m, Rodwell 10m and loaned Denyer, Lopes and Richards, fees paid to subsidise wages I think. Then Negredo with a fee agreed at the end of 23m.
If this 23m needed to be spent last season then we should have made 2 signings in January of 20-30m as we can't afford not to invest this money in our squad.
I thought it made more sense that Negredos money came in this summer, but I know nothing really was just juggling numbers. Pellers might not know it all as Tixi is responsible for buying and selling...
Makes no sense for us to let the opportunity to invest pass us by. It would mean that despite the restrictions we could have signed Reus, Kondobgbia or Gondogan. If their reported by-out clauses are to be believed. Or do what Chavski do and buy players just to loan them out, getting the money back later when really needed.
Nothing about ffp makes sense, apart from it's deeply and fundamentally corrupt and the last thing Fifa need after years of cunts taking the piss is a little french cunt running for president who has proved himself now matter how you look at it, or how you run through the numbers to be bend right down to his core. aka Barca's bitch.
I'm sorry but that's just nonsense re buying players in Jan.
You don't just buy players for the hell of it. We have just managed to ship out some players with whom Mancini did exactly that, & are discussing the difficulty of moving on players now, to make way for new ones, plus we had a full squad of players for the Champions League & had to leave Jovetic out of the squad.
Apart from signing some cheap English numptie, there was no room for manouevre & if we had done that, we would now be looking to offload him in this window as well.
