August 2019 Tough start and it's only going to get tougher with us facing both Chelsea and Liverpool away from home in September, I really hope that loss to Stoke doesn't come back to bite us. Ouch.

2019/20 Pre-Season A simple enough pre-season with us beating Porto and Juventus easily. Top 7 is the aim as usual. 1 sale and 2 brought in. I still can't permanently get rid of Ayew.

It's the 3rd most expensive transfer across the world so far this save. Thanks! I'm projected to finish £25m below the FFP limit this season...

I just couldn't say no to that kind of money. The original offer was £44m including add-ons.

Thanks!

It didn't matter in the end though! Maybe, I don't get how we managed to end up passing though.

End of Season 2018/19 Europa League winners! 3 days later a tired team that went down to 10 early on just couldn't deal with Man Utd. Hopefully not too much will come of this FFP. Awards Overall Best XI 2018/19 Best XI Jordan Pickford Reece Oxford (ResA) - Gary Cahill - Winston Reid Michail Antonio Aaron Cresswell Edimilson Fernandes - James Ward-Prowse Marcus Browne (ResG) - Manuel Lanzini - Robert Snodgrass And after all that, we passed FFP.

April 2019 Perfect month! We've guaranteed a Champions League spot for next season and we have an FA Cup Final against Man Utd to prepare for! Now it's tough.

March 2019 A solid draw away to Man City and we're through to the FA Cup Semi Final where we'll face Southampton, the other tie will see Bournemouth host Man Utd. We also squeak through to the Europa League Quarter Finals. I honestly did not expect Celtic, they beat Sporting 6-4 on aggregate.

This is all the player wage info, which adds up to £1,352,725 per week, or £70,341,700 over the course of 52 weeks, and that's only if every player were here earning their full wages, and some players are out on loan so we're saving around £87,800 p/w I think, I'm still none the wiser on any of this.

February 2019 Just the 2 league games but we manage to climb up to 3rd and make it through to the FA Cup Quarter Final after victories over Brighton and Arsenal, we face Huddersfield next. In the Europa League we beat Basel 8-0 over 2 legs but don't know yet who we'll play in the next round.

January 2019 Losses away to Arsenal and Tottenham in the league pushes us down to 4th, I'm hoping that Arsenal's form remains sketchy and that we can hold on to 4th. I sold Sofiane on the cheap and Andre is gone for now which cleared a lot of room in the wages..but it hasn't changed anything and I'm just as or even more confused with FFP than I was before. We're below our wage budget but this was it at the start of the season and surely we could have lessened the transfer budget to put into the wage budget if it's that much of a problem? Our salary is also just £70.76m per annum, which is 12th out of the 20 Premier League clubs. I don't understand.

December 2018 We were very lucky to draw against Man Utd, we spent 52 minutes with 10 men and had 1 shot compared to their 27 and then we go and hammer Chelsea 4-0 away and Liverpool 5-1 at home thanks again to amazing 1st half performances which sees us climb to 3rd at the half way stage! Basel is a great draw!

November 2018 Wait, what? back-to-back 6-0 wins? One of which being against Man City? Huh? Absolutely amazing month bar the draw at home to Hull
