So how does that work then, we buy him for £20 million, which we haven't finished paying off yet, then 6 months later we sell him back for £15 million and somehow we have cash in the pocket??
If you get that to work Peewee you might want to give Gordon Brown a call.   

In all seriousness is no one the least p1ssed off that Rafa has just wasted £5 million of transfer money, I'm sure the owners must be fecking ecstatic  Has to be said Keane was never going to work whilst Rafa is in charge though.

I know he's been a bit of a c*nt at spurs, but he does have a little more end product than Lennon. I suppose beggers can't be choosers at this late stage in the transfer season.

did you miss maths in school   


20 million, we paid 9 million meaning we owe 11 million, spuds give us 15 million minus the 11 million we owe them leaves us with 4 million

Can you believe those skinflints at Arsenal. They reckon Arshavin is heading back to the airport to catch a private jet to St.Petersburg coz they are only offering half of the wages he's asking for! Only problem is the airport is shut. Arshavin playing behind Torres.......Wake up Scott 

FACT rafa we need a RWer and a Striker FACT ! sorry can't help my self.

there is a slight problem that is stopping us buyin players - ie MONEY - we dont have any for transfers so if anyone does come in it will be on a short term loan ie someone like Saviola maybe ?

Nowt wrong in that mate...

Arshavin would be nice - aint going to happen though. Sadly.

Just as a wild random shout...how about one of the lads up top from Sevilla. Kanoute in particular

ok, interesting way of looking at, kind of ignores the 9 million we've already paid for him though. In  my book it's still a £5 million loss, did you miss economics at school

Effectively we would of paid 5m for 28 appearances (7 goals).

So that's: c179K per appearance or c714k per goal.


Seems like great business....not.
