Eden Hazard

[Harv]

Does anyone else feel like stabbing their eyes out reading Arn's posts?

[Frenchie]

Nobody seems to look at FSG and understand their motives, they are experts at creating recurring income and growing supporter revenue streams. Recurring revenue streams over long term periods have a far greater NPV Net Present Value than just trying to turn the club for a capital gain.

So given that I'm not sure why everyone thinks the piggy bank is closed, FSG have never shown thrift in their ownership of the Redsocks in fact quite the opposite, go watch Moneyball..

They have spent as needed, in fact before players were sold, OK we might not like who we have chosen but they all apart from Bellamy fell into a "type" pre-determined in advance..

So why would that suddenly stop? Do you really think that this first season was FSG shooting their load?

In my mind this season is purely precum lube.....

[Frenchie]

Revenue streams like negotiating their own global TV rights, In Mexico all of the Reds games are live in fact all over Asia, Middle East the Americas etc, these are the funds FSG are after so growing the revenue streams globally will give us sufficient clout and a decent return for their efforts

NPV!..

Blow for Arsenal as Lille slap £43m price tag on star Hazard

Arsenal have suffered a blow in their quest to sign Lille star Eden Hazard after the club slapped a £43million valuation on their prize asset.

Hazard is regarded among the hottest prospects in Europe, with Real Madrid and Inter Milan also monitoring the 20-year old.

Liverpool are also interested in Hazard and could use Joe Cole, who is currently on a season-long loan at the French club, as a bargaining tool.

Hazard has expressed his desire to leave Lille at the end of the season.

But the monster fee is likely to put off a host his pursers, with Real Madrid the only club likely to be able to meet the French club's valuation.

Lille president Michel Seydoux said: 'The price is €50m and this is clear in advance. We are at a time when the club is having a real discussion about what to do but it will depend on many factors.

'First, our economic potential and then it depends on the proposals we receive. Nobody is unsellable. You would be able to look for solutions in the market with the money we'd receive.'

Clicky

I think our owners must be prepared to make at least a £40m+ loss a year until we play in a bigger stadium.

The rules don't allow that so that is another problem.

The key point is still that we must get a bigger stadium. If we don't? Well, then we are finished as a top club.

FLMAO

Seriously Arn please dont bother posting these sort of comments its nonsense

Anyone encouraging over spending & debt (in any industry or sector) is a ****ing loon in the current climate

[Lecter]

I don't think our owners will do anything that is unsustainable.

This is the key point that Arn always ignores

We've just been rescued from one unsustainable business model and Arn is advocating another one

Its ludicrous

I dont want to see the club in jeopardy of disappearring down the toilet like it was last year

We should live within our means

[Lecter]

They have their own money. Loan it to the club against 0% interest like Roman did.

This will mean we wont meet FFP rules

[Lecter]

you are off you're bloody head, with no true concept of finance and economics.

Arn can argue all he wants regarding football but certainly in regards to business matters hes completely clueless

I'd hate to have him running any business I had a vested interest in he'd bankrupt them in no time

[Bender]

you know you guys should show the finance minister some respect

[Lecter]

Revenue streams like negotiating their own global TV rights, In Mexico all of the Reds games are live in fact all over Asia, Middle East the Americas etc, these are the funds FSG are after so growing the revenue streams globally will give us sufficient clout and a decent return for their efforts

Unfortunately the Premier League negotiates the sale of its overseas rights collectively so although this might be FSG's plan its going to be difficult to achieve

[Lecter]

you know you guys should show the finance minister some respect

Arn makes Gordon Brown look like a spendthrift

[Arn]

If Lecter at least one time tried to read my posts about a subject, sometimes more than one then he would understand what I mean but as usual he don't bother to do it

As usual you are having a go at me what a surprise

I posted that they can't spend £40m a year of their own money but Lec totally ignore that and have a go at me.

I said that is what they must do to get us back to the top. I have also mentioned that they would get the money back through the CL money.

[Arn]

I never said that it is reasonable. I only said what they must do if they want us to be able to compete short term in the transfer market.

I think our owners must be prepared to make at least a £40m+ loss a year until we play in a bigger stadium.

The rules don't allow that so that is another problem.

The key point is still that we must get a bigger stadium. If we don't? Well, then we are finished as a top club.

Maybe I should post in big letters so Lec will be able to read it. He is getting old so he sometimes miss important words.
