I think this is needlessly conservative. We don't know if a player the caliber of Suarez will even be available. Also next year is a WC year when prices for even average players are inflated. I understand why some people want to sit on money, but I think the influx of money we are getting from sponsorship makes it pointless. I mean, no other team would sit on 200 mil in cash reserves. I'd find it hard to believe any business would forgo an opportunity to invest in growth, especially when the outlay would be covered by additional revenue,

If the investment was risky, they may not go for it. Suarez isn't risky, but at 55M£, he is. Just saying.
