Not to interrupt this argument or anything lol, but how many "bigtime" clubs have collapsed from things like this? In recent times, I mean.

I know some may say Rangers, but I'm talking about a club in the Big 5 (France, Italy, Germany, Spain and England) who was constantly in the UCL and competing for a league championship.

this doesn't happen in Germany bc their clubs are very financially sound

Big time clubs don't spend this way so they aren't in danger of it (Outside of Chelsea who actually have been incredibly smart about how they spend their vast wealth). At least not currently - Leeds, Portsmouth, LFC, come to mind in the past.

There are smaller clubs who have spent very wisely and are reaping the rewards. Southampton is a great example. Each year for the past 5 or 6 years they've been improving. If you want to know the teams I'm scared of, its S'hampton and Spurs, not City. Even West Ham spent very wisely this summer and with the impending move seem to be on the up and up.
