Another one that came through the Barca academy.

Hasn't played much senior football, but scored a hattrick end of last year in a cup game.

Played earlier today and got an assist for Malmo.

We are so broke

It's not actually relevant, but I absolutely loved his Dad as a player. Was one of my favourites, so silky.

I never actually touched him, but I’ll take your word for it.

“…in case they come into money.”

I can see the comment has drawn some laughs, but I'm not sure if that's on the basis of fans assuming we have money?

At this stage, it still seems hard to tell.

There is nothing to suggest the investors have put any money in or that they will

Was told they were struggling to buy the club that's why the takeover took so long

God help us when the parachutes are gone ,looks like we blew a chunk of this seasons on cannon

Expect a few loans now and that's it unless we sell
At least we dont seem to be hawking players around unless that's what all this Dutch nonsense around hamer is

Not overly optimistic about our chances next season
Play odds at best

 

[mattbianco1]

It's refreshing to see us linked with so many randomers.

There's clearly been a shift in our scouting approach. I'm all for it

A damascene conversion! The Scourge of Fannies has reemerged as… a Fanny!

 

[Blade58]

Nixon linking us with him this morning. Saying we’ve been taking a look at him should we “come into money”

Not sure how to read that? Doesn’t the Souza millions count?

Ok mate you keep waiting for the big signings to come in

I assume that's the sale that's plugging some gaps this year. Any further sales likely to be reinvested would be my bet.

I think everyone is jumping the gun a bit. Lets see where we are at the end of the window, loans and frees can be just as expensive as full transfers these days and it feels that's the way football is heading - think we'll see more teams relying on this model with bigger signing on fees rather than transfer fees.

We don't know what the ownership has made available and it's utterly pointless trying to guess at this stage.

Absolutely spot on. But you know there are going to be fountains of piss gushing all over the place until the transfer window closes. Its the Blades way.

If we really are short of cash now with £40 million of parachute money….. just imagine next summer if we have not gone up & have zero parachute money!!!!! Scary times!

 

[bertieblade]

How do any “external” people know how much money we have ?
Certain information is available at companies house, but that does b not provide access to the value of private funds available to invest .
They do not spend £100m on an asset without having further funds to develop the asset

 

[Wards]

That's what happens when you get promoted, operating costs blow up. Just look at how much Leeds had to sacrifice last summer in their second year of parachutes.

Essentially that's what the parachute payments are for i.e. to fund the transition back to much reduced revenue. The gamble now is whether we fall back in line with other Championship clubs or we fund the losses for a full year - maybe that's the big investment from the new owners. Not sure it was ever a realistic scenario to keep the squad together and fund several new big signings.

 

[Brownieblade]

I put this on another thread but it’s still the same, Luton got up with a good but nothing special team because they stuck with their way

It’s still way way early to say this new way will pan out but maybe it will

Realistically unless you have Birmingham levels of money then whatever squad we have, if we get up, is probably going to be well short and in need of big work needed

If we can get to a stage where if we get up and come back down again but have a good strong youthful backbone then it might might just be ok

Yep good points Wards

I don’t think everyone on here is jumping the gun, but one or two are starting to get a bit twitchy and I include myself in that.

I guess some posters on here are putting 2 + 2 together and getting 5 because they are hearing bits and pieces about our new esteemed owners that aren’t quite adding up.

Whether those bits and pieces are actually right or wrong will become clearer in time

 

[Bladeloyal]

Private jets to training camps ,private jets to Austria ,big infrastructure expenditure,investing in Sheffield clubs pitch ,complete restructure of the management team , wilder backed in the last transfer window with large finance (and partly wasted ) looks to me the new owners are backing the club in a professional manner .

Weren't they 'struggling to buy the club' because they had to find a replacement investor as one dropped out?

 

[Frank the tank]

Private jets to training camps ,private jets to Austria ,

Wouldn't expect them to be on jet2

big infrastructure expenditure,investing in Sheffield clubs pitch ,

Not seen any evidence of this

complete restructure of the management team ,

Doubt he is on more money than wilder or is demanding as much expenditure

wilder backed in the last transfer window with large finance (and partly wasted ) l

borrowed from this seasons budget

ooks to me the new owners are backing the club in a professional manner .

Like I say seen no evidence they have put any of their own money in yet

allegedly it’s 30 as 10 already spent on the cannon via loans against the parachutes -
