There could be some truth to it. Both Herrera and Valencia left this summer, their wages were freed up. Lukaku and Sanchez have been sold too along with Smalling. That's a very sizable portion of wage bill cleared up. I doubt if AWB or James are on big money. Maguire must be somewhere between what Smalling and Lukaku earned.
I honestly don't know how to read into this clearout. On one hand I am happy because this was long overdue but on the other we've only brought 3 new players in which leaves us extremely short on quality and numbers for the long season ahead.
