He went straight on loan to Feyenoord, not sure why it's not counted anywhere.

AH, I wasn't remotely surprised he went on loan, same as Vela, loan for 2-3 years to a country where he can become naturalised, get a passport and play here as a EU player. Just strange as I tend to keep a look out for Arsenal.com news and hadn't seen his name since mid december with any connection.

AS said, all our reserve/youth players are listed and loanee's have a section aswell.
 
Fulham studying Gudjohnsen's medical results, didn't have enough time to get here for a medical so had it at a local Stoke hospital.
 
I think bolton and fulham have done well with their chelsea loans. Two really good players who will help them a lot.

No, they made an 68.6mil loss, cash positive will just mean physicall the cash that came in was more than the money that went out in the calender year.

IE, they spent 50mil this year on Torres, but that cost is amortized over say a 5 year contract. The cash leaves today, this year, at 50mil, but each year its counted on the books as a 10mil loss. So in 5 years time they can make a "loss" of 10mil due to a player transfer, have incoming money of say 50million, and wages of 45million.

That would leave you with 5mil positive cashflow, but a 5mil loss on the books.

I'm not entirely sure why its done that way but there you go.

Of the 68.6mil loss, 70.9mil was transfer fee's from previous transfers.

When those transfers are done they'd have been 2.3mil in profit for the year(and have circa 70mil positive cash balance).

The uefa fair play rules take into account loss/profit though, NOT positive cash flow.

Remember Utd have something silly like 140mil in the bank as "cash" from sales of players, they then pay for players from a different account.

not quite, you're right about the amortization of fees but United's purchases are drawn down from the 170-180million in the main account. The reason you see a loss on the United accounts is due to accounting practices largely such as amortized goodwill (approx 40mill/year for next decade) and none redeemable exchange rate coupons, those aren't counted by uefa for purposes of ffp. However obviously the 40m year interest/player purchases/wages, and any one off costs associated with the bond would be.

You're quite right though that if Chelseas losses were due to wages/transfers then yes ffp will take that into account over the next few years so Chelsea must have some plans to change things up/trim squad further at some point soon.

Had you lost N'zogbia(assuming no last last last minute dealings) I'd have pretty much pegged them to certainly go down, with him, you have goals, assists and the potential to win a few games. Though if you go down anyway N'zogbia will probably go for a lot less money so might have been the time to cash in.

Before the transfer window I'd have thought they'd stay up but, Brum have strengthened a little and kept Larrson which is huge for them, West Ham got a few decent players and were improving anyway, Villa have done very well, Fulham got Dembele back, Zamora soon, a couple new players and are on the way up. Everton however seemed to have lost loads of people, gained no one and are dangerously short everywhere, if Cahill gets injured, or really any other single player they could be in huge trouble this year.

No wonder flops like Aquliani and probably Carroll pass medical tests at Liverpool, just take a look at the medical facilities... :o

Dont be such a tool - what would you know about medical facilities?

I have been to Melwood and they are simply unbelievable - and that was a few years back - they have recently acquired one of the best professors in the world in sports science. And have you seen aquilani for Juventus?

If you are going to post at least back it up with truth..

Cant beleive what is happening at anfield - 35 million for what is unproven talent, and he is injured. The only positive is to think that a big man small man partnership between carroll and suarez will flourish - but that remains to be seen
