Arsenal Finances

That last line is a MUST.. Tierney, Balogun, Lokonga, Tavares, Holding, ESR/Vieira, Partey, Xhaka, etc should make 130m minimum

I like how you went from saying Stan and Josh would do nothing to becoming a Stan stan. Xhaka level redemption arc for you and in less than 24 hours as well.

Imagine when the club annoucing Kai Havertz, Jurren Timber, Declan Rice joining in front of camera, that would be 210M spending in the early stage of one single transfer window. 210M is almost half of the building cost of Emirates stadium 20 years ago, if I’m not mistaken. Scary inflation.

We need to be proactive with selling the likes of Lokonga, Cedric and others during the rest of the window. Partey and Xhaka too should command decent fees.

I read somewhere recently about the cut off for FFP being 30th June so think there has been a conscious effort to get one over the line before that date.

But as fans we must remember we also don’t know how these things are paid. we already know many transfers happen over years of instalments, which may suit Chelsea to get a player of their book. We don’t know the ins and out of transfer pay and we also know what a farce FFP so I’m sure they can work around it

I like enjoying my football and by and large I'm enjoying it. Let someone else worry about FFP and the economics of it. It's worked well by and large for City, PSG, Chelsea, Barcelona, Madrid and a host of other teams. Why should we as fans become concerned with spreadsheets and money laundering.

There use to be an old rumour that we had 100M in reserves in case things ever got pleak, like dropping out of the CL. Could've bought 3-4 world class players back then. Now it doesn't even cover Rice.

Groceries are so expensive here now that we have started getting ours at Walmart. Then Arsenal go nuts in the transfer market.. hmmm

I'm a fan but I enjoy the financial side and academy developments/scouting for talents more than what happens on the pitch. I properly enjoyed all those years of profits and the young squads of Wenger.

This game of who wastes more oil money (or whatever the source is) and fans cheering for 100M transfers ain't for everyone

I've been getting groceries at Walmart for ages - my weekly bill has easily jumped $100 CAD in the past 12 mo.

Man City and Chelsea have spent a combined 2.3 billion since 2016/17

We are so bad at selling players.. We've made only 270m off sales of Alexis, Özil, Auba, Lacazette, Giroud, Ox, Iwobi, Ramsey, Leno, Willock, etc

 

[MD3 Gunner]

What did Man City offer for Alexis in 2017 ? Was it something like 50-60m ?

Yeah it's stupidly expensive everywhere you go.

That's what happens when you have a massive increase in minimum wage

 

[blaze_of_glory]

That's what happens when corporations raise prices well beyond increases in their own overhead costs, as every study is now showing has happened, especially in the grocery sector. Record profit margins have nothing to do with minimum wage.

I"m not going to engage on this further by the way. Facts are facts.

I'm sorry blaze but this is just completely incorrect and a narrative spun by politicians and central bankers to mask their own policy failures.

Inflation is a monetary phenomenon (always). It has nothing to do with corporations raising costs.

This. Even if we fail with ffp we can drag it out for next 20 years like City will.

It only seems like Juventus cant get around things.

Corporations have used inflation as a cover to raise prices further than necessary, making the situation worse . Its very clear, its the only explanation for increased profits margins.

Eg.
