Ya, nothing to see here really.

He is a major troll at times, but he's just telling it like it is.

Like others have said, every title in European soccer is bought.

With FFP home grown reqs and the way clubs are investing in youth i think a good chance we will see big clubs with a good amount of academy grads contributing or even becoming super stars.

Could be, but they will still be buying the titles. There are only 3-5 teams in the European leagues that will ever win one. And yes, I mean ever.

I don't even think he trolls most of the time. He speaks his mind, and he's an easy quote, because he speaks well and can't keep his mouth shut. Most of his super controversial quotes are like this.

I think that is actually probably right.

I hate agreeing with you because, after all, you are Joey Barton.

He's a massive hypocrite. On this and a number of other issues.

Not saying Jose is wrong here, but he needs to include Chelsea in that same group. They spend plenty.

He admitted to this in the article.

quote:

"In the beginning of Mr Abramovich coming to Chelsea, Chelsea was buying the title," Mourinho said after the friendly win over PSG on Saturday. "Now, they are buying the title. All of them, they are buying the title."

More or less it seems like he's saying, If you said Chelsea bought the title after Abramovich arrived, you have to say the same thing about these other teams who are spending huge now.

Which means that Chelsea bought the title this past season.

this

And he's right!
Man City bought theirs. ManU the same.

Since you are in this thread TN Bhoy, Celtic and Rangers have bought theirs as well because the other clubs in Scotland can't keep up from a monetary standpoint.

Have you seen our net spending since he took over and our squad depth? We aren't buying anything right now.

Did I say differently? All I said was that Jose's a hypocrite on this and other matters (notably diving).


And, it must be mentioned, Rangers died because they spent money they didn't have.
