Given how strong the squad is, I don't really need to do that
much work in terms of building. Managing the squad to promote
a winning mentality is where I'll earn my wages. Contracts must
be nailed down early with favorable bonuses. I don't like having
huge bonuses. I'd rather pay a huge wage that I
know is coming
out of the finances every year. That way I can budget.

Immediately, there is a disparity. £75,000 p/w (£3.9M p/y) may be an issue in the future
if Courtois wants pay-parity for the Squad Status. Both players are on long term contracts
though so I don't have to worry about Negotiations this year.

John Terry will be moved onto a Key Play Squad roll to reflect his pay and his importance
to the squad. He is easily England's best defender and has been for quite some time. He's
into the last year of his contract so I'll be renewing that since he's still got one or two
years left in him.
Fabregas and Oscar are both on high-paying contracts so their performances will be highly
scrutinized. If they perform well with a year-average rating of 7.50+, they will be moved
onto Key Player roles. If they achieve 7.00 or less, I will be renegotiating a lower deal;
if they reject, they will be sold.

These are the Cup starters. All Rotation players will play in both the FA and
Capital One Cups to keep the First Team and Key Players fresh for the League
and Champions League.
The wages for the Rotation players seem pretty high to me, given that they
are only going to play 18-23 games a season for the club. Their performances
will be assessed at the end of the season and unless I feel they are deserving
of fighting for a first team contract, they'll but put on the loan list; or sold.

The wages for the Backup players seems reasonable. Drogba is on a high wage
contract because of his notable experience and what he can offer the youth
in tutoring. These players will be the Cup Subs and maybe get a run out if
they are performing well at U21's level. They are however seen as Loan
candidates and I'll be willing to discuss loan deals for these players.

I've identified one transfer Target for the 2014/15 Season.
Jack Wilshere. He'll give us an extra player for the Home-
grown rule in the Champions League as well as being a
great midfield pairing for Fabregas to pull the strings
for Hazzard, Oscar and Costa.
Estimated cost: £30M-£45M
