I know people dont like hearing me say it but I feel that we need a real game changer in for Grimes ala Xhaka at Sunderland.
If Rudi can't get his form back I'd have no qualms buying a whole new midfield 3.

with 3 key players missing with flu, and BTA out with injury, and with the sending off leaving us with only 10 men, Saints still couldnt manage to beat us! Even with all their Premier league experience and parachute money!Judging Milan, Rudi, Torp after injury, carrying the after effects of flu, is daft. They will improve when fully recovered. Just hope it's soon (preferably in time for Swansea!)
On top of 2-3 signing in Jan, I’d say we’d need close to 10 signings in we went up.If we go up assuming we sign Rushworth we would at the very least need:
LB/CM x2/RW/10.
Allowing for all the money you get in one Prem season, plus the £90 million in parachute payments you get for being relegated immediately, you could spend around £180-200 million in one window on the basis of recouping a chunk of that in sales after an immediate relegation. Allowing for wages as well, that's essentially what Sunderland did.On top of 2-3 signing in Jan, I’d say we’d need close to 10 signings in we went up.
Sunderland made about 12 new signings this summer.
I hope we learn the lessons of Ipswich’s recruitment to be honest. Creating a championship super team won’t keep you up and we’re seeing that Ipswich are underperforming this season and assuming they go up (I think they will), can’t see them staying up.Allowing for all the money you get in one Prem season, plus the £90 million in parachute payments you get for being relegated immediately, you could spend around £180-200 million in one window on the basis of recouping a chunk of that in sales after an immediate relegation.

That's a big statement to make.
EMC, like the rest of our players, has continued to improve. He is a key part in the way we play. He has set up the most amount of chances in the Championship so far this season. He has now started to add goals to his game and now looks like hitting double figures in goals this season from the wing. To replace him we would have to look higher up than the Championship.
Do you think we will do a Sunderland and spend an absolute fortune? You can look at every position and say we need better but the reality is our best players now will be the backbone of our squad next season.
What our squad has is togetherness and would run through brick walls for us. You can't buy this. Look at the relegated clubs especially Leicester. Spending money guarantees nothing. Most of our players will deserve their chance with some astute signings to give us an extra edge. And we would have to change our mindset from winning most games to wondering where we will get our next win.
Oh yeah the Prem that has Yasin Ayari earning a living at Brighton. Couldn't lace Ephron's boots.
Honestly the disrespect on here for what EMC is doing here & now.

You talk rubbish mate.I know people dont like hearing me say it but I feel that we need a real game changer in for Grimes ala Xhaka at Sunderland.

It would help work out who youre talking to if you didnt quote 4 posts from 3 posters, including yourself.You talk rubbish mate.
I'm being very polite.
Idiot.
Rudi will get his form back. He's a class act
It's you mate. Total Idiot.It would help work out who youre talking to if you didnt quote 4 posts from 3 posters, including yourself.

The problem is if you get relegated and sell your players you have to start again. This is where the problems can easily start.Allowing for all the money you get in one Prem season, plus the £90 million in parachute payments you get for being relegated immediately, you could spend around £180-200 million in one window on the basis of recouping a chunk of that in sales after an immediate relegation.

I agree, everyone setting themselves up to be disappointed i think.And a bigger problem is if you can't get rid of them you're stuck with them on PL wages.
Puts massive pressure on to go straight back up.
I think we'll spend but I don't think it will be Sunderland levels of spending.
I think King will be pragmatic.
Live in the now and remember also that players can continue to improveAgreed, nothing winds me up more than people gloating about a player who's doing incredibly well for us right now 'being nowhere near the squad next season'
Live in the now!!

Where’s this outburst come fromIts

It's our own supporters that need to be realistic. Many thought we had a bad transfer window before the season started because they didn't consider what we already had. The players know each other well and how each other play. Yes we would need more quality but there won't be a new team coming in. The aim would be 17th place.And a bigger problem is if you can't get rid of them you're stuck with them on PL wages.

Leeds?I think Sunderland and Forest have shown what’s needed if you want to stay up. If you’re not willing to go that far then really you may as well do a Luton. It’s been 25 years, fuck knows when we’ll get a chance again.
I still suspect King sells either the club or a fair stake in it to get investment in. This is the payoff. No sense in cutting corners now. He needs an exit and this is the best opportunity he’ll get. If we go back down who knows how long before we’re back?
You might as well do a Luton is nonsense tbf. Luton spent fuck all and made no attempt at all to stay up, there's a middle ground we will likely hit. I'd bet we won't spend anything like Sunderland or Forest. Maybe 80 million-ish.I think Sunderland and Forest have shown what’s needed if you want to stay up.

Still a net spend well over £100 mill thoughI'll also add again that Sunderland also got an extra £30 million to spend by somehow getting that huge fee for a hype job because he's called Bellingham.
Indeed they spent a lot.Still a net spend well over £100 mill though

Can't wait to see what you two will be like next season, if we're struggling in the Prem. We're top of the league. Enjoy !!OK Sweet cheeks
I think he has something in what he's saying that he could go down the co-investor route,to do that it guarantees that Frank doesn't take the England position for at least the first year?You might as well do a Luton is nonsense tbf.

I'd like to see us invest some serious money in a proper premier league class training facility, then maybe Ryton could be used as a top level academy set up.The problem is if you get relegated and sell your players you have to start again. This is where the problems can easily start.
I think there will be a lot of clauses paid out if we are promoted and lot of wage increases.Bringing it back to EMC, I listened to Darragh MacAnthony a week ago effectively say he was supporting Shef Utd in the playoff final as Posh would have earned a £1m bonus on the Burrows transfer.
He said the same about EMC.
I agree but what comes first? Trying to survive in the Prem or having Prem facilities.I'd like to see us invest some serious money in a proper premier league class training facility, then maybe Ryton could be used as a top level academy set up.
That would set up our infrastructure to be competitive with the bigger PL clubs.
