It is partly do with not showing too much profit. If they make money, the French Gov tax the heck out of it. Pay it all in one go, and the Gov take most of it

Idrissa's gone to PSG 
Bit worried about our defence now that we're without Zouma and Gueye and haven't replaced either of them. Maybe Silva likes the look of Besic, but I'm not convinced. We need a new CB and a new DM quickly. Also looking like the Zaha move is off, we've come out and denied making a 2nd bid for him. Hope that's not true, really want us to go big and get him in.

The rumour mill went into overdrive yesterday regarding who we are interested in. No idea what is true and what isn't but at least one related to a direct replacement for Gueye. I do have faith in the team that are there in charge of signings now though. They seem clued in, professional.Idrissa's gone to PSG
Good luck to Gueye, he owes us nothing, gave everything out on the pitch.

You have replaced Gueye, you signed Delph! Did you forget??Idrissa's gone to PSG

Yeah, absolutely good luck to him, don't blame him at all for going, just a shame for us defensively.
I too have faith in Brands and Silva when it comes to transfer, but at the minute it feels like we've got worse.
Zouma, Gueye, Lookman and Jags gone. Delph, Gomes, Lossl in, so only Delph is a real addition to the squad as we had Andre last year and Lossl is possibly even 3rd choice keeper. Need to start making moves soon.
Eh, I guess. Don't really see him as a direct replacement for Gueye, but I guess we'll wait and see. Definitely a downgrade from Idrissa anyway, but yeah, I did actually forget we'd signed him

Haha. I agree he won't be as good but in terms of playing time I see him playing in the same kind of role as Gueye was for you. I hope he does anyway, I've tentatively lobbed him in my Fantasy team since he's listed as a defender and I like a sneaky move like that...Yeah, absolutely good luck to him, don't blame him at all for going, just a shame for us defensively.

Yeah, you're probably right, just not convinced he's got the defensive nous of Gueye, but we'll wait and see. Hmm, interesting move. Not sure how many points he'll get going forward compared to other 5.5m defenders like Seamus, Wan-Bissaka, PVA, Chilwell, or Shaw, but could be a good shout. I did something similar with Ricardo Pereira last year after he was down as a Defender and started the season at RW.

Ricardo was a beast. You might be right, I think my eagerness to be sneaky is clouding my judgement considering Delph's price, lol. I'll probably end up sacking him off, then he'll obviously score on the opening day. (I already have Bissaka though.)

I hope so
Jota as one of my strikers is my only punt of the year, and given his price I could really do with him doing well, the other options around that price are awful!

What a choice of cover star from PES.

Seems most teams are after a CB. This could be like looking for the years trendy toy at xmas. Supplies running low, and lack of availability pushing prices to silly money.

Excited for this move. He has so much talent, surprised Juve are willing to sell him tbh.
They are overloaded with strikers, the chat over the last couple of days has been about a buy back clause being a sticking point. If they have one in then it is almost like loaning him out for 2-3 years. Exciting signing but at the moment our two strikers are a 19yr old who needs to adapt to the PL and the country, Keane, and Calvert Lewin, 22, who is great at hold up lay but doesn't seem to score (I am assuming that Tosun will be moved on). We are pinning a lot on relatively young players up top. I'm wondering whether a cheeky bid for Charlie Austin would make sense? He could ease some of the burden and help these two lads out.

They were determined to include a buy-back price in the deal apparently.

Surely you can set your sights higher than Charlie Austin, lol.
Southampton want rid, he is an experienced striker who could help these two lads through. He would give those lads a rest when needed, League cup for example, come on with 15mins to go in a game where necessary. He would do the job that Lorrente did for you

I've read quite a few rumours that we're in for Danny Welbeck on a free, apparently his crazy wage demands are holding the move back at the minute.

100k a week plus 5 million sign on
Not bad for his quality but for his injury record it’s awful
50k basic with 70k add ons for appearing maybe.
Anything other than pay as you play or bonus related salary would be madness. His injury record doesn't deserve anything else.
