From these accounts it is clear that they are on a financial knife edge, requiring either CL money or a major transfer out.
In years gone by theyve had the luxury of selling to raise money, weakening their squad but safe in the knowledge they had no challenger for their title and access to CL qualifying.
Not so now.
Also, out of their main assets Edouard, Ajer, McGregor and Christie, who have 1.5 years and a dimimishing transfer value, who could they realistically afford to lose without weakening them further?
And then they would require replacing, as well as 3 loanees and a p!ss poor goalkeeper as well.
After years of us predicting them struggling without CL income, this year really is the year when us winning the title would severely hit them financially and limit their ability to hit back with "marquee" signings.
