Good vibes coming out the club but we still need that centre back but if all these come off it's a great start.
JDT came here because he impressed us due to the fact we believed he could make better use from the squad we have. In particular the younger players. But he was also advised he had money available to spend if he needed it.
We where always going after a few targets either way. As we do have money.
That is without the need to sell Brereton.
If ....and it is a massive if as nobody out there will spend £20m on a player who has had one good half season, we did sell Brereton and got that £20m then we have another budget available for more players. We had always planned for both eventualities.
No club will spend £20m right now on Ben. They will wait and see if he performs again. They may come in for him in Jan, if he has another great season. Or next summer. Those clubs have absolutely no incentive right now to spend that amount of money. And we do not need to sell.
But as our mate from Div 1 is quick to tell us, we are going to struggle. Sell him and the world will end.
We will be fine with FFP and we will enjoy a decent season, with a great RB and a good side. I am looking forward to it.
