Maybe we can get special dispensation for all 3 to share a shirt on match days.

There is no way in hell we have £40m available to spend in January. We don't have the money, are making a loss and will only spend that if we were to sell some players for serious money.80% of our income goes on player wages and agents.

With £40m to spend we'd have to go to League 1 to get all of those.

£40m should buy:
Tosun,
Skorupski or the other youngster we almost got deadline day,
Winger.

I'm hoping that the first two were on Freedman's radar and we're still in for them.
We resubmit the 25 in January - so that can't be the reason.

It's difficult to distinguish I know but this point is about the club not FDB.

Why didn't the club jettison it's baggage train of unwanted players in the Summer? That hasn't been the Manager's job (other than to say yes or no) up until now and I can't see why we didn't get rid of any (other than Mandanda who had to fight to leave by all accounts).

In addition, if we really had £40m why didn't we spend at least another £25-30m of it in the window that has just closed when prices are cheaper, there is more choice and we get the benefit throughout the whole season? It just seems suicidal on the clubs part even allowing for issues/doubts over the Manager. So a budget of £75-80m plus player sales would have allowed a significant refresh of the squad together player sales and loans.

I have to assume the sudden hike in prices, an over optimistic view of 'final day availability plus the odd every day, screw up has combined to a perfect storm. Sheesh

Look at Ledley, a stalwart of our squad for 3 or 4 years, rapid deterioration over 18 months or so and now can't find a club even though he is a free agent. We had to wait until Campbell's contract expired before we could get rid of him as no one would pay a transfer fee and his wages and I'm afraid it's the same with the 4 you mentioned.

We may look to sell pva? we have gone from having no left back to 4 that can play there assuming souare makes a full recovery plus schlupp and reidewald. Delaney won't get any football unless we get 4 or 5 injuries to centre backs - time to send him off for a final season in the championship?

I certainly agree with the positions that need filling.
I agree it's tricky. Just have to hope some other clubs get desperate.

Obviously all of them will come back and score against us.

In terms of the 'ins' we need to have more of the Wood from Leeds to Burnley deals. 15m was a snip for one of British football's most recent prolific strikers.

Part speculation, part of something I was told…
I was told Club had players lined up that were identified with Allardyce. FdB said he wanted to check the squad out too before deciding, and then decided he didn’t want those players.
Speculating, that after knowing what positions he wanted, he wasn’t as good at identifying players that he wanted, and those that he had, concerned the board i.e. Reiderwald being too small.
This meant that the board were concerned about backing him too heavily, particularly knowing that it was likely he’d be gone pretty soon, meaning budget is available now.

One of the main problems with us changing our manager so often over the past few years is that it has allowed the dross to remain at the club as they get given a new chance each time.

The last set of accounts were the first to show a loss in the PL. In that time we still have a surplus. Think it is closer to 70% on wages but only the accounts in a few months will show us that with the increased TV deal.

Oh and if you are using the profit and loss accounts to justify whether we are likely to sign a player, then transfer fees are depreciated over the length of the contract.

Have you tried selling your rubbish instead of having the council collect it? Fact is our deadwood is not good enough for the wages they are on so no-one will take them.

In addition, if we really had £40m why didn't we spend at least another £25-30m of it in the window that has just closed when prices are cheaper, there is more choice and we get the benefit throughout the whole season? It just seems suicidal on the clubs part even allowing for issues/doubts over the Manager. So a budget of £75-80m plus player sales would have allowed a significant refresh of the squad together player sales and loans. We were reportedly in for several players on deadline day even after the Sakho deal was done, therefore we were trying to spend the money. Some reports suggest FDB kept saying no.

I have to assume the sudden hike in prices, an over optimistic view of 'final day availability plus the odd every day, screw up has combined to a perfect storm. Sheesh
We certainly need to do better in the window in future.

I don't think Jairo is too small to play in a 3, as long as he gets up well and is physically strong (TBH I don't think I can tell so far having seen very little game time back there). Playing him in a 2 could be far more of a struggle. Obviously it's better if you are taller. To digress - I wonder how Bobby Moore or Colin Todd would fair these days. I just looked up how tall Bobby was and one site said he was 6'2". If he was really that tall I think he must have shrunk in the wash when I saw him play.

I heard something similar. We had a keeper all agreed and about to sign. When FDB came on board he cancelled it.
