wilsoncgp 9,230 Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Notice that Mozza isn't in the West Brom 18 today even though he's meant to be back from injury. Seems pretty certain he's not going to play for them again. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Changing Times Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 We have a guaranteed 170 mil. That is astounding. 20 mil can go towards putting the club in a positive FFP figure. Leaving approx 150 to spend on improvements and what not. I wouldnt expect us to do that, but it doesnt half make a change from the Mobray years!! It's not quite as simple as that mate. The £170m is for 3 years assuming we are relegated this season. We don't have £170m to spend now and you have to remember that a decent chunk of that will be taken up by wages over that period. I think you're looking at about £100m this season that we are guaranteed from tv money and then whatever else we get on top of that from other activities - tickets and other commerical stuff. It's still a lot of course :) Link to post Share on other sites
p_mards 1,363 Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Gibson's quote of “Our recruitment wasn’t as good as it could have been and I think we have addressed that, but it’s still difficult to get the right players. You’re asking a lot of a player to pick up and move his family to new faces in a dressing room, different coaching methods, different fitness methods and it doesn’t always work. Sometimes a player can be at a club that’s made for him, but he doesn’t know that until he’s gone and we’ve had one or two players who were better for us" pretty much sums up the situation with Bamford and Ramirez.

Dynamo Kev 1,552 Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 jesus navas is an interesting one. i've often thought how awful he is for city but would probably be brilliant at another club. could we be that club? lol Link to post Share on other sites
ManBearPig 1,833 Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 We will sign Bamford. Jesus Navas is terrible. His end product is so bad for a professional football of international pedigree. Link to post Share on other sites

Not necessarily with Ramirez as he's had good times elsewhere. Bamford though perhaps. Link to post Share on other sites

He understandably wanted a crack at the Premier League, the same as any other player in that position would. He made the right decision, it just didn't work out for him that's all. No issue with that and anyone that really feels that way is being a bit silly. Not sure I'd sign him now though either way but it wouldn't surprise me if we did. Link to post Share on other sites

Good lord I wish some of our fans would get over this, he wants to play at the highest level, I'd have more doubts about him if had chosen us over a premiership team, shows ambition and self belief I'd have him back in a heart beat Link to post Share on other sites

For me there's only room in the squad for one of Bamford/Rhodes We need a different type of striker this season, one with a bit of pace that will scare opponents if we counter on them.. A striker in the vardy/Wilson/gray mould Link to post Share on other sites
