    It?s a good discussion but I agree it?s a lot of money on one player (however good). Our squad remains thin and with some first teamers getting on a bit, I think we need to consider quantity as well as quality.
    The cartel promoted PSR means that players like Rodrigo can only realistically go to the high earning (cartel) clubs because it?s too risky for other clubs to buy him.
    Our day will come for purchases like this but for now we need 3-4 first team reinforcements and then with our hot prospects coming through we should be looking good in a couple of seasons. Its critical we keep EH and that Mitchel now steps up to the plate as well.

    To put things in perspective, the filth have put a ?65m price tag on Garnacho... let that sink in.

    For ?20m more you can acquire a full Brazilian international, champions league & la liga winner.

    ?85m ? by the 5 Yr contract = ?17mil

    So with bonuses and agents fees the whole deal will absorb around ?20m from this year's budget.

    We have to be looking at a budget of around ?80‐120m after no spending anything for over a year.

    It won't happen but we can afford and still have money for geuhi @ ?45m which is quoted (45?5=?9m) & a striker for around ?40m (40?5=?8m)

    About ?45m expense booked for this tax year.

    Then a couple of sales like for like willock and longstaff out for example and two replacements in.

    It's doable. I just don't see us doing it.

    The other question is, aside from city where else would Rodrygo go? Psg have Krava & Demeble as wide men and the Qataris are cutting right back on the ir spending since the world cup has been and gone. Plus they're sniffing around spurs so in future I would expect be surprised if they pretty much defend PSG or it becomes a feeder club.
