Fortunately marinakis has papered over the failings of others with the 20m.
I thought not letting players run down their contracts and leaving for nothing is an area Forest had improved upon.
Further, I thought Mr. V had done reasonably well 'flipping' some players that Forest brought in? (I suppose with the high churn there will be wins and losses?)
There has, of course, been a great churn of players due, partly to the chopping and changing of managers. But I thought that the padding of a squad was partially deliberate to allow our Sister Club to help us flip players for a profit?
Maybe actual figures will suggest otherwise.
It would be interesting to see a list of the players brought in since Warburton (or on each manager basis) and see what the profits and losses were for each manager's players. I would have thought the Aitor Karanka era would be quite expensive on players and wages if but for Carvalho alone.
That said. Our latest foray into squad busting transfer activity last Summer brought 14 players in. I'm more than curious of the financial impact of doing so. :O.
But that was before we had a more incisive number brought about by Hughton this January.
This Summer is? 'Going to be busy.' According to Hughton. So there's more 'churn' (necessity this time 11 players out of contract and many loans) but at least we have the experienced and calm oversight of Hughton this time. Some say his transfer track record isn't that great at other clubs. Dunno about that. We had a shrewd January in the difficult circumstances of our current league position. I'd like to see what he can do with a whole Summer Transfer Window.
