@RPMComo If you think that John McGinn earns £10m per year, I would suggest that you might not be the football finance expert that you think you are.

@Llama_Bin_Wild @Jlloyd100 @espenstrand @orzmund1 @MTVilla1983 Selling / loaning out Bailey looks to be the one that would have the most impact on spending, whilst making the least impact from a footballing perspective!

[Russell @RussCramp]

@HeresAdamm @BruceRioch4 Don’t remember tbh. Maybe it’s just in the league that they’ve got away with it?

[Russell @RussCramp]

@Son_Lyme @Alex_Berwick Not necessarily top prices, but we’ll definitely be spending every available penny. Hence the ticket-pricing. It’s also why I think we’re more likely to go for players like Harvey Barnes than we are for Mbaye.

[Russell @RussCramp]

@Alex_Berwick @Son_Lyme Completely agree. I think the focus is still very much on ‘winning now’ as you’ve referenced a lot previously. UCL football again in 27/28 would be massive for the finances and really allow us to rebuild the squad / invest in youth.

[Russell @RussCramp]

@MattyDAvfc1874 @VillaViews_ Rowe / Barnes / Abde would all be great signings in that position.

@doc3d 100%

@villareport @MailSport No, no and no again.

[Russell @RussCramp]

@Markyb610 Exactly. £30m is big money, but if it’s him + Harry Wilson on a free, we’ve added 2 very good attacking options for a relatively conservative outlay.

@Trentvilla1 Lindolf’s salary is less than half of Stones’, and was at Man Utd.

@Primetimeperry @espenstrand @Mr_Murals what you up to this weekend…? 😉

[Russell @RussCramp]

@Real_Rob_Warner @Trentvilla1 We certainly won’t have a net spend of £100m, but it’s not inconceivable that we’ll generate enough income via outbound transfers to spend £100m on new players. Especially if Palace take-up the option on Guessand, Benfica on Barrenechea, Leipzig on Nedelkjovic, etc.

@JamieSmith_25 Thank you Deano - so much of that squad were yours 💜💙

[Russell @RussCramp]

@ARSENALDvbrisG Thank you mate. All the best for next week too!

@footballontnt I’m not sure that a single one of them has actually understood the question…
