If we’re signing that many, that’s the EcoWorld flat sales sewn up…If they are young enough thats the new academy filled up ....

I've heard that it will be up to a million.We will sign up to 100 players in January...
How many top-level games, equivalent to PL, has he played?It's not really about age, I'd look more at number of games. Vs Canos agreed - said in my post he'd have to win his place, it'd be no sure thing. Vs Roerslev he's played more games at a higher level, if we're spending £10m or so on him you'd be expecting him to come in and compete (like Wissa, Ajer, Onyeka).
It’s normally the worst window to buy but if Brexit has meant our business increases in South America then this falls away. I suspect with half the campaign gone, Phil and Matthew know who is cutting it in the Prem and who isn’t and we will replace accordingly.I think that's probably unlikely - we don't tend to buy players unless they can improve the first XI - and given the first XI have been doing so well it'd rock the boat quite a lot to replace half of them.
I would guess it's 2-3 players maximum. It might be that we're in discussions with 5 players at the moment and this guys interpreted that wrong but I doubt we'd sign them all if we were.
Who knows, I'm probably wrong.

How many strikers? ((c) magicbees)We will sign up to 100 players in January...
Up to a millionHow many strikers? ((c) magicbees)
He won’t be happyUp to a million
How many had any of our team played top-level games equivalent to the PL before this season?How many top-level games, equivalent to PL, has he played?
Just ask Fulham what experience they had when they went down.....How many had any of our team played top-level games equivalent to the PL before this season?
Have people not learned that PL or top flight experience isn't all it's cracked up to be. If you're good enough, you're good enough. If the DoFs want him, I'm sure he'll be good enough.
But you don't know what they want him for, do you? You can't assume that any player we sign will be an automatic starter in the first team – at least you can accept a gradual introduction. I really doubt that players we sign, if any, will be "oven ready", on the sort of budget we have, with most January signings expected to be eased in for real contribution in the following season.How many had any of our team played top-level games equivalent to the PL before this season?

If we're actually signing this guy and spending the money being mentioned, he'll be in the match day squad from the off as a minimum. Starting XI very soon afterwards if not straight away.But you don't know what they want him for, do you?

Exactly this. He may start off behind Canos as he’s eased in the first few weeks, but we’re not spending 10 million for him to be 3rd choice behind Roerslev.If we're actually signing this guy and spending the money being mentioned, he'll be in the match day squad from the off as a minimum.

How much did MPH cost from Chelsea?Exactly this. He may start off behind Canos as he’s eased in the first few weeks, but we’re not spending 10 million for him to be 3rd choice behind Roerslev.
Somewhere between 1 and 2 millionHow much did MPH cost from Chelsea?
Iirc up to about £5m with add ons but the up front nearer £1m.How much did MPH cost from Chelsea?
And he doesn't even fit in the first team.Iirc up to about £5m with add ons but the up front nearer £1m.
Not yet, maybe next season. Like JDS.And he doesn't even fit in the first team.
I was more referring to the money, not the player.Not yet, maybe next season. Like JDS.
You're comparing 1m up front plus add ons to, allegedly, 10m up front plus add ons.I was more referring to the money, not the player.
We spent anything towards £5m for a player sitting in the B team and not even in the firdt team squad, whilst some are saying we won't spend hard cash and not expect him to start., or be in squad.
I think it is more about how much we’d spend on a player to develop slowly over time. £10m is around the level we’ve spent on Wissa and Onyeka. So while it isn’t enough to make someone a nailed on starter it is enough to put them into the first team and playing regularly as soon as fit. If we stay up I’d expect that spending threshold to rise so maybe someone arriving in the summer for £7.5-10m (eg say, Brennan Johnson) wouldn’t be straight in on the bench.I was more referring to the money, not the player.

It only becomes anywhere near 5 million when he begins to play for us, and starts fulfilling requirements for add ons. Until then it’s less than 2 million.I was more referring to the money, not the player.

If MPH's fee rises to £5m from £1m it's hardly surprising that we won't remove him from the oven until he's well roasted. With yer man he should be almost oven ready now.And he doesn't even fit in the first team.
JDS hasn’t played in the prem yet, has he? I hope he adds to the team, but meanwhile we need results with what we’ve got and also what we can get.Not yet, maybe next season. Like JDS.
Tbf the discussion, and my posts, were about him being at least above Roerslev in the pecking order, and that he’d have to compete with Canos for a starting spot.But you don't know what they want him for, do you? You can't assume that any player we sign will be an automatic starter in the first team – at least you can accept a gradual introduction. I really doubt that players we sign, if any, will be "oven ready", on the sort of budget we have, with most January signings expected to be eased in for real contribution in the following season.
This bloke will be coming from lovely sunny 30 degrees to cold, windy, cloudy, rainy, sh*tty. He’ll need warming up for 4 months minimum.They will be oven ready, they'll just need warming up for a short while![]()
You don’t wanna go up BrentfordHow unambitious of you! Should be 400 at least.
You're all wrong anyway. We'll be signing a Brazillion. ref. the jokes threadYou don’t wanna go up Brentford![]()
That's all fair. Will be an exciting month if true! Though I guess if all football gets cancelled again we may be a little more restrictive in our budget!
I think that some posters may be under estimating how much our press players are worth on the open market!Exactly this. He may start off behind Canos as he’s eased in the first few weeks, but we’re not spending 10 million for him to be 3rd choice behind Roerslev.
A middling French top flight club or a middling Premier League club. We're probably the better bet.In the crosshairs of Brentford, from England, right-back Vanderson, from Grêmio, is also on Monaco's radar.
Brentford signaled with a proposal that could reach R$89 million, but the French club is willing to make a higher offer.
Agreed, the Premier League must surely be a bigger draw for players.A middling French top flight club or a middling Premier League league club. We're probably the better bet.
A middling French top flight club or a middling Premier League league club. We're probably the better bet.
I think ( amazingly) with our full squad more than a middling Premiership club and with a couple of quality additions could well be in one of the top 6- 8th spots. I think that’s European footy competitions which may be a bigger draw.A middling French top flight club or a middling Premier League club. We're probably the better bet.
Monaco are in the Europa League knockout stage and finished last season in 3rd to get in Champions League qualifying. We’re not at their level quite yet!I think ( amazingly) with our full squad more than a middling Premiership club and with a couple of quality additions could well be in one of the top 6- 8th spots. I think that’s European footy competitions which may be a bigger draw.

Weather and lifestyle is terrible in Monaco. Ahem.A middling French top flight club or a middling Premier League club. We're probably the better bet.
We’re not far off. The prem is a much bigger deal than Ligue 1….. and their ground is even smaller than ours.Are we really thinking of ourselves as a bigger draw then Monaco for new players? Come on............... Monaco are on a different level to us.
