That's one thing you can't fault them on. Need to throw them a curveball, thought that Jizz and Whang fellows might have been them but too obvious. Forest get your act together, maybe they'll actually buy MGW for 45m and that's our real plan.

Feels like whenever we've missed out on a player we've had alternatives lined up that are just as good or in some cases better.

He does a hell of a lot of pressing from the front & ball carrying though so I can understand why folk are saying he's an ideal Cooper player.

I'm still not sure how Everton are allowed to keep on spending. I thought they were in breach of FFP?
They've sold Richarleson. That was a £50m payment upfront and before June 30th, which put them net-positive to £48m in the last accounting period.

They took in a free and a loan.

While they're paying a lot for Onana, it was based on a very small initial payment, with the rest coming in instalments that get bigger over 5 years. They'll do something similar for Gueye too as PSG don't really need cash up front.

They're likely to sell Gordon. They may sell Calvert Lewin too.

It might be kicking the can down the road, but that's how they've done it.

I see, I didn't realise they'd staggered the payments for Onana. I can't remember the exact figures but Kieran McGuire said they were trying to blame 150M plus losses on Covid - all other clubs were saying 50M. They must be in some shite to be trying that.

Hopefully it'll catch up with them. I always quite liked Everton until they decided to do a Derby

I think the COVID amounts could take some while to 'negotiate' with the league. Some of it is a straightforward loss of revenue, and some of it is more complicated deprecation effects on player sales. Mel Morris is counsel for the club, your Honour.

I thought for ffp purposes the payments were irrelevant, it was just value divided by the number of contract years? no idea though!

Yeah most deals will be spread over the length of the contract in the accounts. It depends how much wiggle-room clubs will have on what year they put it in.

As for the cash, Normally clubs will only demand instant payment in full if they have cash flow issues? Almost all deals will be in instalments.

Amortisation is the spreading of the cost of an intangible asset over a period of years.

There are a few methods. The common one is 'straight line' Amortisation where the cost is divided up equally over the years.

The approach that Everton are using with PSG is 'balloon' Amortisation as the installments get bigger over time.

Other methods, such as 'Bullet' Amortisation had just small payments then a big settlement at the end. We tend not to see this in football so much, but in the future, who knows?

I know straight line is the most common way but the way the transfer market works suggests that an amortisation curve is more appropriate. Having said that, I still think straight line is better as it evens the years out and should make an individual clubs accounts out over the years more consistent. Ho Ho Ho, as if.

And then there’s the method preferred by a Mr Mel Morris.

Same here, always liked Villa and Everton historically, proper clubs and fans. Not going to lump Everton in with Derby just yet as a club yet, it was the Derby fanbase reaction to what they'd done which disgusted me as much as the acts themselves and I've not seen what they've been like, although I can't imagine them being happy with it.

4 days since Fabrizio's Tweet saying it was as good as done.

If he's stalling at the final hurdle to see if there's better elsewhere f*** him off.
You've got to be at least Aouar levels of awesome to do that. :p

Key reminder for some that this is *completely unrelated* to the actual payment for the player. Payment terms/length are dictated solely on the agreement between two clubs. What the buying club then does to capture the asset value on the balance sheet is another thing entirely, and from an FFP POV is irrelevant (but FFP is impacted by the payment terms/length agreed between the two clubs).
