What did aston villa mean by this?

There's still 2 weeks or so left before the transfer window closes. I hope we get a good final day, they've all been a bit shit for the last 2-3 years.

City is the only team I can understand not spending so much but even then they've bought a really good player for a good price in a position they needed strengthen. I dunno why Tottenham or Liverpool aren't capitializing on their success last season. I mean I know Liverpool where incredible last season but this window reeks of 2008 man United and they only stayed afloat as along as they did because of fergie

i don't know anything about footie what is liverpool doing

>We're doing a tottenham/fulham

When will they learn.

Klopp is happy with the first team and they spent a load of money on new long term contracts for all their key players

Clubs have limits on how much they can spend right? if they don't reach the limit are they allowed to spend more during the next spend period?

I think the time period for FFP is 5 seasons so probably

Where are these shitters getting this kinda dosh from?

Villa? Circumventing FFP rules

((()))

??

there is no way Arsenal have spent all their budget already

Comes down to wage bill mostly. Liverpool's wage bill was 246 million in 2018/19 which was 60% of their turnover. Clubs coming up from the championship aren't weighed down by it.

They are doing all their deals in overly instalment plans, I'm sure they have a bit more than £40 million to spend but yeah, they are penny pinching over instalment plans for a £25 million defender they desperately need.

Overly complicated*

They have to pay extra so help them get over the fact they're living in Birmingham.

>Liverpool's wage bill was 246 million in 2018/19
lolwut

Sorry it was 2017/18 and that's including the salaries of everyone at the club. It'll probably be a lot higher since the arrival of players like Keita, Allison and Shaqiri which makes sense why Liverpool are refusing to buy any more players. It seems like all the big clubs try to keep their wage bill to around 60% of what their turnover is.

They did it last season

Who have villa actually bought? are any of the players even any good??

Burnley are definitely going down

ok i just looked and i've literally only heard of tyrone mings on that list. the rest of the players look like literal whos/shit records in shit leagues

>he doesn't know trezeguet

>Wesley

yeah he was great alongside zlatan at juve

B/R are such casuals. All that hype over the WWC and then they turn around and not even post about NWSL.

Is McGinn a meme?

>NWSL.
?

He's an idiot. The squad is already thin enough that they have to throw the domestic competitions as it is. If they have a bad run with key injuries (not Lallana), they'll be battling for a Europa spot.

Managers don't get to decide transfers, it's not fifa. Klopp is just towing the line of what he is being told will happen. Liverpool's wage bill is fucking humongous and they can''t afford anymore big players without somebody leaving and freeing up the money.

I get most casuals only care about the world cup, men’s and women’s alike. But you can’t run around pretending that women’s soccer faces only problems on the international stage and exists every 2 years. Caring about and developing women’s professional leagues does much more than complaining about national associations.

Villa had no choice but to spend big. Lost half the squad at the end of Championship season and most of what was left not good enough either apart from Grealish and McGinn.

We spend a fortune replacing/upgrading players and we're 'doing a Fulham'. We don't spend and we're doomed. Can't win. Couldn't give a shit to be honest, our owners are super rich and there are exciting times ahead.

Villa will finish mid-table imo.

It's funny because of how they were bitching about Wolves a couple of years back

>Managers don't get to decide transfers
This is why so many clubs get fucked up.
Get a knowledgeable manager you can trust, give an appropriate budget and let him build a team, rather than try to build a team yourself without any relevant knowledge. Basic delegation.

Villa have broken zero FFP rules.

midlands on top and sc*users in the bin, blessed table

In the modern game the big clubs are moving towards very extensive analytical teams that basically predict what players are needed. It’s a bit like the minority report. It’s why you see clubs like Man City signing players that make everyone think “bit odd but okay” like Kyle Walker and they end up smashing it.

walker is literally just there for the english quota

Neither had Wolves. Everyone is hoping they do a Fulham.

Confirmed baller

As a whole Man City don’t go after big name players to please the customers though. It’s all done with maths and science, Liverpool are also one of the leading clubs using algorithms and such to decide on transfer targets which is very similar to how Baseball teams pick players, and they are also owned by the redsox owners.

Playing for a top 4 club within 12 months. Guaranteed.

>red scousers relegated
yes please
