It's okay, Spurs are in luck, we will offer 30 million for Chadli in the summer.

If we have so much cash to waste 120, just give me even 1% of it, would be better spent. I'd splash it on hookers and blow at least

More like the only team that spent 130 million net, literally

Can't say spending that much and just barely being 4th a third way through is "paying off"
Well no matter how much we spend its no good when they are injured.

Seriously 40 injuries already this season already you can spend half a billion and that will still ruin a team.

Not if you don't make Champions League or want to pass FFP. You also still have 350m worth of debt to deal with, United aren't quite that strong in a financial sense.
Actually we are. The debt doesn't matter with ffp. What matters is we make a profit (large) each year which we do.

Man Utd barring some stupid financial management will never have troubles with FFP

FFP is like every extreme right wing nutjob's dream of how capitalism works, the rich get better

Servicing the debt is what matters, and that amounts to interest repayments. You also partially make profits because of the Champions League revenue you get, we'll see how your finances are at the end of this season with a 130m net spend and no European football.

Ffp has no regard for debt. The purpose of ffp is to prevent clubs spending more than they generate in revenue. If United make top 4, we will make $125m+ just from the Adidas & Chevy deals. All of that spending and debt rose by 1m for the period. Annual Debt expense for the year is circa 30m if iirc which is loose change and is unlikely to be paid off in the short term, nor does it need to be.

Our finances will continue to be fine.
We'll continue to make a profit.

FFP is a complete non issue for us.
