Indeed. I'm sure he's not exactly gutted he's moving to Monaco.
I'd laugh if the FFF screwed Monaco over because of the tax haven status. I'm not bitter, much.

Re: First of our 'targets' has already gone elsewhere...
Have to agree with the first lad, Moutinho is a player we should be signing and we missed out on, was the perfect replacement for Modric. Problem was that he had a very good Euros with Portugal so price went up. As soon as AVB came in was when we should have gone for him not at the last minute like Levy does when it comes to spending big money hence he got caught out playing games with his agent, now he's cost us the signings of Moutinho and Diamao. Levy really needs to come up trumps this summer, as there's many of us questioning his approach to big transfers in the Park Lane.
I think Dembele had a pretty good first season but i feel Moutinho is a different player and if we had him, Dembele and Sandro that would be fantastic 3 closer to the Oscar, Mata and Hazard trio and Chelski.

I'm quite fed up of oil clubs. When are we going to join the club please?

Confirmed by both clubs, close thread?

Yup, certainly looks like it.
Will the FFP stuff allow owners to give money to their clubs, rather than lending it?
BBC confirms. C'est fini. And the price has gone from 60 m euro to £60 mill.

L'Equipe say Monaco want Kompany for £26 mill. And Falcao wanted also for £40 mill +.

Tax is irrelevant. If their crowds are only a few thousand every home game, I cant see how they will adhere to the FFP rules

They don't need too until they compete in Europe!!! The rules only effect uefa competitions
Re: First of our 'targets' has already gone elsewhere...
I personally think we'll be taken over in the new few years, we're one of a couple of clubs that are right for the picking and levy is doing his best not to spend any of Joe Lewis's money. Actually, Jo Lewis has never put his hand in his pocket come to think of it so i think if we get a nice bid ENIC will sell.

Just like ENIC, to sell after FFP laws are clamped into place preventing another Emirates Marketing Project-like splurge.
If we were going to go for an oil baron, we'd have gone for one by now. With FFP and the new PL rules coming into effect, the only thing any new sheikh or Russian oligarch will be able to do with the wealth they appropriated from their citizens is build club infrastructure, which ENIC are already close to financing themselves, by the looks of things. So we don't really have any need for a Rybolev or an Abramovich, and even during my most cynical, down-hearted hours, I'll be eternally thankful for that, whether I appreciate that fact or not.

With more or less zero gate receipts I just done see how the numbers could ever satisfy ffp

I guess that we will find out when/if they get to a stage where FFP applies to them

But as stated before on FFP on here, everything will have a common price taken from every club.. So they will take the top 20 clubs see what they all charge and take the mean. or better still because it deletes the obscene.. they take the Median.
