FFP has always been weighted to maintain the status quo and not allow any other teams to disrupt the red and white cartel, brexit Jim’s latest comments just reinforce that

Summer Transfer Thread 24/25
- Thread starter Bigpig
- Start date
The points deduction would hit for 3 seasons though, unless you spent nothing for the following two seasons
Is Jim aware United finished 8th last season?
Well it's gone from the big 2 to 4 to 6 solely to make sure they are remotely relevant so expect the big 8 to be coming soon
That one hurts tbh, especially when we keep Almoron/Wilson and Long staff. Brutal. Have a feeling Minteh and Anderson will both come back to bite us.
Edit looks like we getting 35m for Anderson, softens the blow.

That's Jim RATcliffe for ya. Every time he speaks it's with pure entitlement. He fits right in at United.
It’s a 3 year rolling cycle, so if we spent £300m this summer for instance that would still be amortised/accounted for until the 27/28 seasonDetails.

PSR is working as intended. The super league 6 were after a bargain.
Miggy will be leaving the club just not to Saudi. Dubs to Celtic after the Euros, few clubs after Longstaff. Wilson set to leave. Wee bit of a mini rebuild the summer. Squad slimming but with better overall quality.
100% Minteh also hurts after watching his progress:/ but two players that haven’t scored a goal for us that have hopefully pulled us out of a hole. I just can’t see were Anderson fitted in with Wilcock, BigJo and Miley able to fill that LCM role. On the RCM we have Sandro/Miley/Longstaff ahead of him there. Probably more suited to a CAM role.

We must be getting Elganga then!! Wee bit of doggy accounting going on.

Yeah I hadn’t really given it that much thought this morning.
In which case, do it anyway and target the 29/30 season #longtermplan.
It’s PSR deadline dayBrentford in for Archie Gray!
I'm loving this PSR faff!
more drama than the real transfer deadline hahWe've got loads of financial headroom too. I wonder if we throw out a few other derisory bids today!It’s PSR deadline day
A midfield development group of Gray, Yarmoliuk and Konak is quite a little gang of emerging talent.

Transfer wise I quite like the targets we have so far:
De Ligt - looking like very strong interest reported by Ornstein. Never quite worked at Bayern and he’s had some injuries, but a very solid player.
Zirkzee - promising young striker. I remember him on FM! More experienced than Hojlund.
Branthwaite - interest not linked to De Ligt and would be a really good signing. Both would be ideal.
Ugarte - definite upgrade in midfield, not sure how solid the interest is though.

Leeds rejected it, wonder what the figure is they want!
