Clearing the deadwood’s another area where Ashworth will prove his value.
Hendrick signed on a free so got a big wage, this pretty standard for free signings.

Grand total - £531,685/week that's 4 or 4 class players or 3 Osimhen, Leao calibre players.

I remain aware of other clubs business/spending but I don't compare them to us. We are doing our own thing and I'm delighted that are ploughing our furrow not bowing to pressure from other clubs. We no longer beg for scraps from the so called 'top teams'. We Are a top team now.
