He's meant to be great in the new Han Solo movie.

I think we all know Poch isn’t getting £150m to spend.

As always the funds generated from player sales will be available and maybe, if he’s lucky, £50m on top but that’s it

Well we will see how wrong you could be?

Holding out that he wants to bring in a fellow argentine that would improve us straighr away.... Dybala.. he has always been a big fan but that would be a big dent in the 150

Call me stupid but when MoPo leaves I would love to let Chris Hughton have a proper go at being our main man.
If ever Poch leaves there is only one person that should replace him.
Diego Pablo Simeone, one Argie for another. ;)

Just imagine how excited Ossie would be. lol...

I was going to say I hope you’re right but I’m not sure throwing money at players is necessarily the right thing.

Time will tell.
I get your point. It is about throwing it at the right players. The challenge is, they HAVE to back Poch. So pray he gets it right.

I guess this is the hard bit of any player acquisition. It’s just if you look at some of our best players (Kane, Eriksen, Alli, Jan, Tobi, Dier) they didn’t cost us very much so sometimes the right player can be a cheaper option but I guess Poch is looking at players who are already established and in their prime, perhaps? I just hope the right player isn’t another Sissoko.

A mixture of both

I actually think the Comments from Poch are not 'give me a massive war chest or I'm off'. I think he is asking Levy to get the business done early, get rid of players he doesn't want instantly even if it means losing money on them. Get the players Poch wants before pre-season so he can start early. Poch has been on back foot at the start of last 3 seasons. COYs. Go on Daniel you know it makes sense.

I'm not a fan of this obsession with money. If we need to spend then so be it, but we shouldn't be spending £150m for the sake of it. This is especially the case on guff like Nkoudou, Llorente and Sissoko where we could have used academy players.

Money needs to be spent on the necessary areas (midfield and left back) but really I couldn't care less how much we spend as long as we get the right players for each role. Dier and Alli cost us a combined £8.5m.

I don't think its the lack of money that would prevent us getting Dybala..

And why isn’t Poch on manager of year shortlist - top 3 for 3 years in a row??

But instead continuing the suck off Liverpool way with Klopp being in there...
