Do you really give a rats ass?
A bit, I just don't see that type of striker leading the line if I'm honest.
I hope I'm wrong.

Would westbrom mug themselves off by making that powerful statement on Tuesday and selling him by Saturday? I'm sorry but i really can't see it
Am I the only one not seeing the idea of Fazio and Berahino being split into seperate deals? Surely, if done this way both clubs will have to pay more in taxes this way? Perhaps they are just being announced as seperate deals, but is basically a swap + cash to suit both clubs.
There's also the very good chance that I am completely wrong though...
@Spurger King He's doing it again...Exactly what I said a few days ago. They give us £5m for Fazio, in a separate deal we give them £25m (probably) for Berahino- in reality, we've only paid £20m- but to the fans it will seem like they got their valuation.
Not quite. In your example above WBA receive £20million cash plus a player who cost us £8m last year in exchange for Berahino.Exactly what I said a few days ago.

We are selling one player at a loss, which obviously doesn't increase the tax bill, really. Then we are buying one player for quite a large sum of money, which will reduce our profit and thus lead not increase the tax bill.Am I the only one not seeing the idea of Fazio and Berahino being split into seperate deals?

Exactly. One make make up some sweet reasoning as much as one wants, but at the end of the day, we will pay a substantial amount for Berahino. And adding a player on top of it in no way reduces the overall value of the fee.Not quite.

I've deleted it so we don't go through this again. @razor1981 - I know it's plus a player but I kind of implied that in my post.@Spurger King He's doing it again...
No, it only "works" if Fazio is valued at £0This only works if the "real" valuation of Fazio is £10m, which I doubt.

Do West Brom have to announce the fee of transfers? I wonder if they will announce Fazio as a bargain £5m and the sale of Berahino as undisclosed.
Does he need to lead the line or forge an exciting partnership with KaneA bit, I just don't see that type of striker leading the line if I'm honest.

Pritchard signs new 4 yr deal. Great news but I got all excited when I saw the 'we are delighted to announce' line from Spurs Twitter. Was sure it was gonna be about Berahino
miscalulated then eh?Oh Jesus I didn't realize I was coming in to math class this morning!
Good news from Paul. Don't suspect that it gets done today if WBA are announcing Fazio. Probably Monday or Tuesday then. So 48 hrs...from Sunday.

You don't pay taxes on Losses (Fazio). On the contrary you get a tax credit!
