The brand and marketing side get a much much bigger lift when we are the champions of England or Europe.i don't think it's as much about trophies as you think.
The difference in winning the PL and 4th is just a few million. Ditto the CL where winning it and going out in the last 16 makes a difference of circa £10m in prize money. There was only £40m difference between us going out in the Last 16 and PSG winning it!
In the CL "a larger portion allocated to teams based on their market value and coefficient ranking" so just by qualifying and performing well in the league section and making decent progress in the KOs we are going to make a significant amount of money.
Of course commercial activities will dwarf what we make from any one competition. So it's not about the trophies (though naturally that's what we are aiming for) but about finishing in the Top 4 and qualifying for the KO stages of the CL. I can't see a financial drop off sufficient to put us into the UEFA mire?
Maybe @Beamrider can confirm if I'm miles off or not?
100% take him on loan. He is an upgrade on CJ.
Tsimikas.Which one of our overseas players are you selling to accommodate him?
We’re already overloaded.
Tsimikas.
Eric Garcia for Endo as he can play CDM and CB
Me wanting X and Y is irrelevant, Hughes has shown far greater ambition with signings than meIf Garcia qualifies as HG then it works - right now we have 18 OS players and the cap is 17.

The questions I have is, can we get Isak and Guehi and is 3Cbs enough? I am not going to include Jo as part of our defence as he is just too unreliable . Endo is too fucking short and Badge like Jo is never fit enough for long enough.
It'll soon be 16 with Nunez and Diaz on their way. Tsimikas could make it 15.If Garcia qualifies as HG then it works - right now we have 18 OS players and the cap is 17.
Well Stephenson seems to be that player at the moment and I'm sure he'd be delighted! He'd still get most of the u21 games too.You won’t get a kid being happy with that. They need games. 7 cup games won’t cut it. Why did Quansah leave? He’d never get the development he needs being 4th choice here.

Can he do this though?100% take him on loan. He is an upgrade on CJ.
I felt nothing but pride of a local lad standing up for the fans.I remembered Jones got sent off for that, and the feeling I had was meh. That reflects his place in the team really; that we have better options.
Similar feeling to when I was aggrieved with that Nunez sending off back then, when I still had hopes for him. Now, meh.
Jones need to step up this season or he will find himself becoming the Elliot of last season.
Not sure why we get ourselves all riled up over some no marks, perhaps I am not local. I get that it's a derby and local pride and all that but we need to keep our eyes on the prize. If it was someone like Virg, Mo or Macca getting himself sent off and missing 3 games over these lot in the middle of a title challenge, I would be incensed.I felt nothing but pride of a local lad standing up for the fans.
What do we have with Gomez? A player who is getting on, not better than Virgil, Konate or Guehi, on a fat wedge and only will get chances in cups or dead rubbers. He’s always injured too.Versus what, an old player that isn’t good enough to play for us, so doesn’t?
A young defender not getting minutes outside of cup games is a choice that Slote would make.
That’s why I’d prefer we sign Guehi and hope Slot trusts him enough to play more games in rotation with Virg & Ibou.
Whoever that 4th CB is - they’re not playing outside of domestic cups or dead rubbbers unless it’s an emergency - and they’ll play even less if Gomez is actually fit fir any length of time.
At least with a youngster, if he’s under 21, he won’t take up a squad place and we can spend a season drilling him with the expectation that he gets more game time next season and beyond.
That wouldn’t work with an oldie.
It was retarded especially considering we had injuries at the time.Not sure why we get ourselves all riled up over some no marks, perhaps I am not local.
