You have to remember wages too...yes Suarez was on £200k a week but that lot are probably on say an average of £70k a week ? So that's nearly £500k a week in combined wages so that's an extra £15mil a year on the wage bill which probably comes out of the transfer budget. Over the course of say a four year contract that's £60mil. Add's up!
Doubtful! I'd say an average of £50k a week! If that, Origi, Can and Lambert won't be on big wages at all. The rest of them, I'd be surprised if anyone was over £80k. Point still stands though, we've certainly added to the wage bill!Reina, Lucas and Agger will have been on top wages. Johnson too. The extra impact on wages will be negligible. Of those mentioned so far only Lovren will be on the other side of 50k.
If anything if we get those players I mentioned sold then the wage savings will also probably be in a net profit, especially after the Suarez wage saving.
There is no financial reason that could be stopping us to signing who we want. If we don't sign a big name player it's because we chose not to. That extra 60 million mentioned is way off the mark.

Jay Rod still available to sign when he is fit again 
Must admit Im a bit suprised at the slightly "meh" attitude over the llama. He is the one signing I absolutely wanted as outside of Sturridge & Sterling he was the standout British player. And certainly alongside those + Suarez, Toure & Hazard as an outstanding player of the season. Put Sterling up front with Sturride then Stevie, Hendo with Coutinho & the llama either side and I will be a happy happy chap. Riki is a superb £4m sub/20 games a season buy.

Sky Sports reporting that the Remy deal is off due to Borini refusing to move to Sunderland, thus blocking the Remy signing..... Sources close to the player & Remy saying he didn't fail the medical!
All the reports I've just read say medical failed, and we will now pursue other striking targets. RedTrident said:

There's no way a player that you have valued at £25mil (Lallana) will be on less than £50k. The transfer fee sets the bounds for the likely wage as much as what their old contract was for. RWD cossie wil said:

Can't see that being true - non of it makes sense.Though I also can't see how Remy has played for so long in the Premier League but fails a medical with us.
