Where do you think there will be more profit?

The margin the club may make if they sell some players in the summer, or the bounty paid for a 2nd season in the premier league?

They'll make a massive profit on the £100 million player we already have in the ranks 😂

We will lose money on every single player we have.

That will depend on the wage bill, quite simply

Last time round our wage bill accounted for the absolute majority of the PL money
It won’t this time, but it will be a huge chunk of it

Clubs generate money via player sales, most often

We won’t lose money on every single player we have either, that’s just hyperbole

We’ll make money, or break even, on all of them

To make a sustainable profit the answer needs to be both. If we could be in the Premier League and turn players over for profit ALK's model would make sense.

It's not looking good so far, and that is why no other club is thriving with this model.
