I'm super fine with not going for VO. All the better. 

Hilarious some are calling Toney better than Jackson. Good jokes. Great in fact. 

 

Duran and a CB to close would be great to end things. 

I feel the same. VO would be nice if the deal is right - I'm not convinced he is 100% nailed on starter for us, but good competition for NJ and improves the squad.

Duran for similar reasons would be nice, any number 9 who is physical and a bit of a bully would add some nice variety to our squad of Mr Nice Guy forwards. We could use someone with a bit of an edge to them.

TBH a world class CB would make more difference than a number 9

In July 2024, Love signed a new $220 million, four-year extension with the Packers; at an average of $55 million a year, that tied him with Trevor Lawrence and Joe Burrow for the highest average annual value in NFL history.

I get that but if he goes to a new club does that not remove financial responsibility from us not having to subsidize the ridiculous wage. It is different for a manager if they do not get a new job after being sacked then yes we continue to pay them their salary but if he's going to a new team not leaving football why should we still be paying him. Is the contract no longer valid when he is sold.

I just posted to explain please read a few posts up.

We made a promise to him that he will get some portion of money (the sign on fee) as long as he does not request a transfer. Simple as. We promised it and we should pay it. That's how contracts work and the right thing to do. The rest he will obviously lose and will be on him to get from his new club.

Prime Tom Brady would be easily paid over 100m usd per year nowadays.

Speaking of American sports salaries, I don’t think people who only follow UK/European sports really realize just how INSANE they are compared to footballers. These days the top NBA stars are going to be making $60m+ per year. The very top NFL QB’s make well north of $50m per year.

We think these footballers are overpaid, it’s a different ballgame over here in the States.
