And like I said getting rid of any of the players we paid decent fees for means their transfer fee gets included towards FFP now rather than being spread over a few years. If DC were to splash 10m on someone else at this stage what would it achieve?? This season is dead, we have enough players to come back from injury to avoid relegation and then Jos can start the remodeling of the squad in the summer, at which point a few things will drop off the FFP radar from three years ago.
We are in the same position that Derby, Brighton and Forest have all been in, the question is whether we risk going over FFP like Forest did when they were given a transfer embargo, or whether we accept this season as a bad one and clearing out what we can to be able to add to the squad to try moving forward over the next two years like Derby and Brighton have done. DC is not blameless in all this but he put his faith in Carlos to build on the PO final team to move us forward but the signings we made that summer have proved to be pretty much useless for a variety of reasons, that is where we stumbled and that is down to Carlos.
