Yeh i moan about this frequently, its too much of a reward for failure, and the fans who "suffered" relegation from the premier league soon find their voice again...."piss the league" im seeing from Leicester fans already, its hard not to with a huge advantage over everyone else.

What is more annoying is the denial on twitter that Parachute payments have anything to do with it and that it's all funded by their player sales (it was Burnley fans last year and Leicester fans this year).

Acting as if the £45m they're given makes no difference.

Don’t know if it’s been mentioned elsewhere, but Ike Ugbo (previously linked with us on a few occasions) has gone to Cardiff on loan.

10 goals in 56 appearances previously. He's only on loan, so even if he scores a load cardiff wont reap the rewards financially. not too concerned at missing out on this one.

A lot of talk of Akpom leaving Middlesbrough, will be tough to replace a 28 goal a season forward. Be interesting to see how they get on next season.

I'm pretty sure he's out of contract next summer as well, so expect he'll be off shortly too.

They paid a similar fee for Lavia and are about to sell him for about 50 million. It’s not as crazy as you think

If they're going to make that much on Lavia, then 15 is hardly a lot on a replacement who could potentially also make them a lot of money.

They gamble on talented young players (from Man City mostly) with the hope they sell them for huge profit. They will be a strong outfit this season

Why do you want us to sell Wilson?

Because I don’t rate him. I think his clean sheet tally was highly assisted by having a solid defence, a lot of the games he kept a clean sheet he didn’t do a lot.

Don’t get me wrong, he’s improved but he worries the shit out of me and I want an improvement on what we have and personally I don’t think Wilson is a keeper we will ever get a fee for so I’d like to make the most of this opportunity. Maybe last season was a lucky streak and he might come undone this season. Time will tell.

Right now clubs will see the clean sheets, see he was keeper of the year and we might be able to cash in

He's a good lad, improved a lot last season, and is part of a great team spirit. Wages won't be daft and there are a lot more important areas to be addressed. If we are getting Collins too, then Ben as number 1 or 2 is fine by me. Plus he's the top sh*thouser keeper in the league (as well as the golden gloves)

Blues made anither great signing in Siriki Dembele

They've had a phenomenal window, expect a play off push from them this season

They'll still do well to make mid-table. Agree they've had a good window so far, plus new owners. Think a lot of teams will beat each other and the play off places will be another bunched finish.
