A lot of dough, but when you consider we have 4 young and exciting English players in Omari, Johnson, Delap & Greaves for an average of £12.5m per head it feels like good business in this market. On a really bad day and having your pants pulled down you get the lions share of that back I reckon, if needs must.
Players you would think will have the potential to keep learning and developing under McKenna, and hopefully prove themselves capable in the premier league.
Still a few more to come I imagine. Exciting times.
For football teams to get a bit of success if for the boy McKenna to get some time with the manager and Ed Sheeran to sing to the players?
Anyone else think Ipswich have landed on a formula which England are now benefitting from? We're basically going to win England the Euros aren't we? Do we get a star on the shirt for it?
Ahadme gone. Ndaba looks like it'll materialise pretty soon, likely destination SPL. El-Miz to Oxford. JD presumably departs pretty soon.
Looking quite tidy, just leaves Ladapo as a priority? Presumably not overly straight forward as we'll no doubt need to part fund the next 12 months by bridging some salary, but I imagine we'll be willing to do that.
Then presumably some loans for Slicker, Baggott, Humphreys which should be easy deals to do.
A curious one isn't he, like whenever I watch him play he just looks every bit a really good central defender, he just hasn't nailed his place down. Favoured over Burgess on a few occasions last season for a little extra pace and very rarely let us down. Decent on the ball, physically strong, good in the air, great age, a leader on the pitch, good experience now from Rangers, Derby and Town. There's not much about his game not to like is there.
Can't help but feel he'll be one that becomes surplus though when you consider we're strengthening in that area, and with Woolf, Tuanzebe and Burgess here too.
I would be all over that deal if I were a Championship club and happily part with 7 figures for him.
Shaping up quite nicely IMO especially in terms of the departures, we're not really left with any dead wood and the contract situations seem to have been managed really well. Lot of headroom to add plenty of quality, but clearly that's the hard work left to do to bring in 6-9 more I would think, as well as Johnson.
Like when you take a step back and think about it. I was sat in my garden this morning having a coffee, that's probably not that odd. In nature, drinking some ground coffee beans mixed with hot water and a bit of milk, consumed from a ceramic vessel.
Then a plane flies over, RAF. A fricking metal can carrying people through the sky at hundreds of miles per hour. A plane designed for warfare as well. Mad innit, that we even have planes, and that we need to make some to help stop other people killing us. What a world when the concept of a 'defence budget' is so normal.
Inside to my office, open a laptop to count some numbers for a company who sells some stuff. Do that for 40 hours of my week so I can get some money to give to another company who sells some stuff that I want or need. Still feeling slightly annoyed that 11 chumps from my country couldn't kick a ball in a net more times than 11 chumps from another country.
Can anyone who has bothered to consider this add some flavour please? Now the groups are taking shape and assuming we win ours. When are we getting knocked out?
