True. They were using that as excuse to chuck people on the scrapheap. They're being cute, spreading the cost of the payments over the whole of the contract. Also  Rashfords salary about 325k a week is paid by Barca and they have millions from sell on clauses coming in. 

 

I think it’s more to do with if they don’t get champions league football again for a few years they are fucked financially, is this a rash attempt to get back into the top 4 if so it’s either extremely brave or stupidity at its highest

I think that’s exactly what this is. Monster outlay in a desperate attempt to get UCL football. Because they’re fucked if they allow the current top 4 to run away from them and lock them out like it looked as though they would thus far in the window.

With their debt situation they NEED to be in the UCL going forward or they’re screwed. 

Baleba + Donnarumma to add to Cunha, Mbeumo, and Šeško would surely be £300m+ window. All players I rate other than Šeško.

Thats their aim  - Stats was asking how they are able to do it. Answer is creative accounting mainly the stretching of payments over the whole contract.

I think it’s throw money we don’t have at it and hope by the end of the year we have it 😂
