Has £50M become the new £30/35M transfer benchmark..

[BOBPAISLEYFAN]

In the past six months there have been several £100M+transfers which unfortunately has created a seismic shift in transfer fees across the board…

As supporters, we can argue until we are blue in the face as to the merits of these £100M transfers, but the reality is clubs like Southampton are now using these ridiculous transfers as a benchmark, hence players like Lavia who were once considered to be worth £30/35M are now being touted at £50M….

This unfortunately is now the new norm, and this was always going to happen due to the massive failure of not implementing FFP properly…

This seismic financial shift and the new Saudi issue must be making FSG to once again seriously reconsider their position as LFC owners.

Thoughts ?

I think this season is key. If we don’t compete for trophies then I think FSG will consider

Man City have a 20% sell on fee with Lavia. So that's something we'll see more off as the so called bigger clubs sell on younger players . So that's driving up the fees.

Why isn't the Football Supporters Association looking into the apparent failure of FFP?
It's affecting so many aspects of the sport but they seem to be just twiddling their thumbs and apparently ignoring it.

It's the new 20m nevermind 35m.

It shows the growing global market and inflation. Rice signed for over 100 mill this summer, Suarez for 65 mill iirc 9 years ago.

Have to feel sorry for poor old FSG.. Henry and his billions… dum di dum… They just can’t “afford” it..

Neville telling it the way it is, but using the wrong word to describe why it is.

Despicable cunt that lad.

LFC operate a sustainable model, which as a passionate supporter is a bloody frustrating model at times tbh, but in reality who can argue with the success it has achieved in terms of success on and off the pitch during their tenure. Has everyone conveniently forgotten what has been achieved with this business model over the past 7 years of JK tenure….������

Yes we are going through a difficult transition at the moment and yes we could argue that we could have achieved even more if FSG had backed Jurgen more, but spending more and more money guarantees nothing, especially money you haven't got.

Now Gary N played for a Man Utd, were money was not a problem and they could gamble left right and centre, it worked brilliantly under Fergie tbf, but since Fergie this approach has been an absolute financial disaster for them off and on the pitch.

However at the moment it appears a lot of Clubs are likewise like UTD gambling everything on RED in the transfer market…and just hoping for the best .

So to hear Gary saying all clubs should now adopt this flaky and irresponsible business model is just typical of Garys low resolution thinking..

Isn’t it funny how many people cannot separate truth from the individual.

Explains how a broken society like ours is allowed to continue.

Neville is 100% correct in terms of how we have been unwilling to spend what is and what was needed, folks can talk about what ifs and anything they like.,,, He is correct,,, regardless of what anyone thinks of the man.
