Maxi & Kuyt were probably on 80-90k, and Adam was on 50-60k ... There is NO way the additional salaries of Skrtel, Suarez & Gerrard (& soon Agger) are even 1/4 of what we've shed (or will shed).

What's your point Mystic ?
I've said the ins pretty much match up with outs so far, and our net spend is quite large so I'm expecting more sales.
I seriously doubt that. FSG are not going to give a 32 yr old a pay rise. Probably just a straight extension to his existing package.
Rodgers and FSG were both on about having to lower the wage bill so I would be extremely surprised it there wasn't a substantial net saving.

Me too.
The club is in a worse financial position than previously & he's older, I can't see a pay rise being part of his contract extension.
Carroll, Adam and Spearing out (I don't think we'll be able to offload Cole).
2 forwards in.

Hope your not right
This line from club was used for the meierles transfer last summer. Club could have refused the request as it came so late in the day but didn't and were happy to accept monies.
Not sure he will now if City are signing that CB from Fiorentina.
Well- appaz the City bid for Scott Sinclair has stalled, and they might take a punt on Walcott instead. Any takers to sneak in and make it happen?
we should have a club hypnotist
...when I click my fingers you will want to go to west ham
Wouldn't have to be a trained assassin.
Just have to put up a sign above a doorway saying 'free saveloys & jellied eels' & wait just inside the doorway with an anvil on a rope.
You rang mate?
Why should we do that? If we're paying him we might as well keep him and use him if needed.
I remember Sunny said that Joe Cole has cost us 18 million over 4 years.
The manager added: "You don't need to be a rocket scientist to see that Andy has been a cover player for us. He has been excellent in terms of his attitude and his acceptance of where he is at but, for us as a football club, and I am talking generically here, I'm not sure we are in a position to have £35m players as third choice strikers or wingers who might be on £5m-£6m a year. I don't think the football club is in that position. This is the challenge that I have to work something but it is not going to be done overnight."
Is he is taking about Cole here?

I seem to recall reading somewhere that his signing on bonus is being paid weekly to him as well so that he is actually costing the club £120k per week.
It could be all bollocks though I guess
