| Harvey Elliott - £30m-£35m on 12:55 - Jun 4 by AlexMathie | He won’t choose us if other established PL sides are interested, like Nelson and Broja didn’t two years ago. |
Broja chose us, we pulled out after medical due to his injury. He then only had Everton as an option when they were prepared to take a risk on him that we weren't. |  | |  |

| Harvey Elliott - £30m-£35m on 09:49 - Jun 5 with 543 views | franz_tyson | I feel he's a player who'll show early on in his career and will eventually drift downwards. The Villa loan was unfortunate..... but if he was as good as some make out he'd have been given more of a chance at Villa. I don't fancy him and I think his next club will buy his potential which isn't there. |  | |  |

| Harvey Elliott - £30m-£35m on 16:58 - Jun 4 by SuffolkPunchFC | And those 2 points are only 2 of the flaws. The player transfer fee is amortised over the length of the contract, likely to be only £8-10m in the first year. Finally, what we receive from PL money does not translate 1:1 into what we can spend. SCR drives the cap, and sustainability tests now drive what you can realistically spend. PL money is a parameter of those calculations, but only one of many. |
We will spend c£200m on transfer fees alone this summer. |  |

You may well be right, but that doesn't make your original maths right As I posted in detail elsewhere, under SCR we could spend another £330M and still be within the 85% 'revenue : player costs' ratio. Significantly more if we pushed to the edge of the 115% 'amber' level (but would then have far less in subsequent years). 5 year player contracts would further increase what we can spend on transfer fees (~£410M). I don't think we'll go close to the ceiling, but try to keep to a ratio below 70% or maybe a bit more. |  | |  |

My initial "maths" was clearly a little tongue in cheek. The point is, we are loaded, lets bloody spend it! |  |

| Harvey Elliott - £30m-£35m on 16:19 - Jun 4 by rickw | That price seems steep, Villa could have bought him for £35m but decided he wasn't worth it, so hopefully after last season we could get him for 20-25 with plenty of add ons The other one who plays in similar positions is Ethan Nwaneri, who's currently training with England. He has a failed loan to Marseille last season so you'd think Arsenal would let him leave again |
Nwaneri is one I'd love us to go for on loan! He'd be very exciting on our right side which we know needs strengthening |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

I can't disagree with that. Availability of funds and adherence to financial rules is unlikely to hold us back . It will be competition with more established clubs. |  | |  |

Would be a ridiculous signing. Would be good for Arsenal too giving us a player who would be guaranteed to start most games. |  |
