If its only another 2/3 we can kiss goodbye to any league win
I know but where will it come from , we need to sell imo.10 million is not enough
This is where we have been negligent Gerrard should have come in and built a team round his signings and moulded them in to his style of play.I know but where will it come from , we need to sell imo.
The 6 or 7 players that have went will only help the monthly overheads.
They werent big earners anyway.
10 million is not enough
I agree with you saying sell Morelos as we could possibly get £15m + for him but I wouldn’t sell Tav or Goldson unless someone offers us something we can’t refuse. Tav is the best right back in the league and Goldson is our best centre half, I’d look to sell Katic for €5m and Kamara for €10m if the reports about Marseille willing to pay that are true.We need to sell Tavernier, Goldson and Morelos to bring in some funds and for Wilson to find us better players with these funds and whatever else the board bring.
We need a better right back and a more reliable CH with pace.
We need two midfielders who can control the pace of a game and we need goals from our midfield who have gave us a very poor return the last few seasons.
We need a few strikers, their discipline has to be better and they need to score all season.
All of these players need to be coming straight into the first 11.
A right sided wide midfielder if I was being greedy.

I think it will depend on out goings - if any of the “big hitters” are sold a chunk of that will be re invested - if none of them are sold ... then I don’t see us spending huge sums of money
I think and hope the same.to stop 10 meaningless titles will spend big this season.
No way Rangers will sit back and watch

Definitely agree that we desperately need more goals from our centre mid, the Armstrong rumour is interesting because he’d certainly contribute at least 10 goals from the midfield in my opinion.
You are going to have a long, and incredibly disappointing, Summer mate. Be prepared.
£5 million tops. How much of that is eaten up by the Hagi fee i'm not sure. Hopefully that will be covered by last/this seasons EL run. Personally i'd spunk the lot on an experienced, ball-winning midfielder who's not afraid to mix it. A cheaper version of Souness if you like. Ideally someone with experience in British football, perhaps even an old pro from the likes of Stoke, Burnley, or some other perennial mid-table EPL side.
I get that will leave us bare at LB and up front. I think we might need to free up a few more salaries (Barker, Jones, and either Stewart or Kamberi) and hopefully pick up a couple of decent loan deals to fill those holes. However, I believe we are a small step away from being a really good side, and a player like this would not only be the final piece in the jigsaw, but elevate the contribution from others in the squad. IMHO part of reason we havent seen the best of Kent is he needs a minder (so will Hagi by the way) and there are others in the side, such as Jack and Arfield, who have fire in their belly and just need a leader.
Ideally Ross McCrorie might fit this role, but I dont think he's ready and there are still reservations over his ability. However with Ross in mind for the future, that might allow us to move for an older more experience pro. We might even get one out of contract and save on the fee. However, we cant dick about on this anymore. Whether you call it lack of fight, bottle, psychology, its clear this type of player is sorely needed in our side. It's the Elephant in the Room with the gaffer's management IMHO.
There is absolutely no way we Only have a transfer budget of 5 million lol and spent 3 million of it on hagi we spent 7 million on Kent alone the season previous , it will be at least 10-15 million.

I might have lowballed it a bit, (and excluded the Hagi deal in my thinking) and your figure might be right under normal circumstances. However, if we are unable to play in front of full crowds until next year I think the club will be conservative until that time, perhaps rightly so. That is unless this speculated investment comes in, of course.There is absolutely no way we Only have a transfer budget of 5 million lol and spent 3 million of it on hagi we spent 7 million on Kent alone the season previous , it will be at least 10-15 million.
Now I’m not stupid and I know Coronavirus will obviously impact everyone financially but, with a European run that would’ve brought in a decent amount, a new merchandise deal, season ticket sales, MyGers and £20m + investment coming in soon, will we have a budget that can realistically get us the players we clearly need?
I think we'll have about £20m and that's before any player sales.
Make no mistake, we're going all in this time.
With respect there were an awful lot of posters this time last year saying there was zero chance we would be spending anything like 12 million.Same unrealistic wild expectations every Summer.
We won't be spending £10m even if Alfie and a few others go.
We don't need to either.
