Fairly sure that around £40 million was promised to Benitez. Actually before you think the Yanks are being generous that £40 million was extracted from the £350 million loan - you know the one that isn't building a new stadium.
Erm, and we're paying £30 million interest a year.
Anyhows moving on. We have a lot of players who can be sold for value - just like last summer. I would imagine we could get at least £25 million for some of the outgoing players such as Crouch, Kuyt, Pennant etc.
Finnan's finished, and it seems like everyone on here accepts that Barry is coming. If he becomes a red then fair enough, but I really do not see th point in us purchasing yet another player of that ilk. I'd rather have Bentley than Barry - a position we really require strength in.
