Guess it’s the difference between fees with add ons etc
But seems like they are selling off all those players they got early days
Seems they are also buying players via Strasbourg as well

Think they just have a settled squad but also a lot of their players are ones that have come from other prem clubs when not needed

The Joao Felix transfer was also pretty suspect, bought for £45m, was a massive flop and somehow sold for about a million less!

I think we all know that Chelsea are using several loopholes to find various ways to negotiate FFP.
Personally I blame the FA/UEFA/FIFA rather than the club itself.
They seem to me of thought this is a good idea but in reality they have not looked hard enough at how it actually works.
It’s like when someone designs something and the person building it has to point out or make the changes to make the project plausible.
One thing I do know is if I’m in court I want the Chelsea lawyers defending me and if their accounts department could have a look at my taxes at the same time that would be a result.

Some telling comments by Nuno Espirito Santo in his press conference. When asked about his relationship with the Chairman he said things like "Our relationship has changed and we are not as close" and "It was a respectful relationship based on trust and sharing opinions but now it is not so good." He also said he hopes the relationship can continue but he is not so sure. Could be trouble ahead.

Just literally watched that and thought “hello”. Something definitely seems off with what he said about their relationship and how he is and still feels committed but cannot comment on his relationship with chairman and whether it can continue.
Hope it gets resolved they’ve done well and look to be building something good under Nuno.

Rumours abound now that he's getting sacked!
Or is Nuno doing an Isak, and silently pushing for the sack?

One normal and quiet day of being a Forest fan is all I ask! 
Nuno only signed a new contract a couple of months ago, so this would be a strange development. A week or so before the start of the season he made comments along the lines of Forest being “nowhere near” where they needed to be in terms of squad preparations. I think that was interpreted to mean he wanted more signings to happen earlier in the window. But that possibly couldn’t happen as we were waiting for the European competition issue to be resolved.
Most worrying of all is that the Italian journalist who was the first to speculate on this early this morning said Ange Postecoglou was in the running to replace him!

Could be right but the timing seems really weird they’ve just made some good recruitment deals. So something clearly happening in the background with them both.

Oh dear. If this was a couple it would be down to Relate or the divorce court.

I think it's crazy that Nuno would say anything like that in a public forum unless he was pretty convinced he was going to be leaving. I would imagine Marinakis is a difficult guy to work for.

As soon as the chairman “ has full confidence in Nuno “ we will know.
Ange though that’s a clash waiting to happen .

Wouldn’t surprise if owner isn’t happy that they missed out on CL

Couldn’t agree more! Nuno don’t brilliant with the team but there were signs of cracks last season with the chairman.
As for Ange if anyone goes near him as a replacement premier league manager they’d be nuts.

I think you will find his correct name is Sir Marinakis of Crete (Twinned with Nottingham), and Nuno is not the Messiah he is a very naughty boy.But never the fault of Marinakis
