    I'd be happy with just Ambrose leaving now to be honest.

    Boyata too would be a bonus, but I don't think they will both go.

    If Simunovic leaves that is another £4m in the coffers, alongside £2m say for Johansen. £6m straight away not including everyone already out the door and CL money, ticket money, and his original budget.

    If we still don't spend a bit of money in the next day or so I'd be pretty annoyed.

    Anyone else think that we might make a 6-8m signing in the next two days. The funds are there...

    Any idea how much Gamboa cost?

    I've not seen any rumoured fee, best guess would be between £1-2m.

    Turning out quite funny where we've probably recieved more money than we've spent on transfers and maybe even reduced the wage-bill.

    Scepovic, Johansen and Simunovic must have been sold for about £7million. Yet we've only spent about £5million.

    Scepovic, Stokes, Johansen, Mulgrew, Simunovic, Allan, Fisher, Cole, Richards, Boerrigter off the wage-bill and only Ajer, Sinclair, Dembele, De Vries, Toure and Gamboa added.

    Can't quote your MM but aye, same here.

    I mean how much was DDV - £500k, add the Dembele fee, Sinclair and Gamboa that is about £7m I would have hoped we would spend a bit more.

    But then wages might be higher too, we've probably added about £120k a week to the books. Although surely we have gotten rid of a good £60k too.

    Sinclair £3.5m
    DDV £500k
    Dembele £500k
    Gamboa £650k - I don't think £1m is accurate


    So say just over £5m in transfer fees. There is funds there for a couple good signings, I hope we see it.

    Let's put it this way. If we don't spend any of this money on a couple of real quality signings ("blue chip" signings as some put it), we are in for 5 (or possibly even 6) very painful nights in the CL this year.

    If that happens, I think a lot of people will be very angry.

    But we're recouping at least that much with the Johansen and (it seems) Simunovic sales. It's a net spend of pretty much zero.

    I reckon Gamboa cost us less than £500k.

    Gamboa might have been free, he wasnt even making their bench and they'd have been happy just to let him go.

    Would be our equivalent of Boerrigter.

    I've heard the term 'nominal' used to it will be below £500k or so if true.

    Fact remains, despite doing good work in a business sense by bringing in these players for very little, we could really be doing with a couple of 'big' money additions.

    We should have enough money to spend £3/4million on a good quality solid midfielder and afford decent wages for them.
