I understand our Covid financial issue but spare me the "we can spend anything" argument.

If you don't do at least that then you are fooling yourself about the title next season because City, Chelsea and United are spending big to catch up.


Exactly. What makes our situation so different than theirs? Perhaps we just have cheap arse owners who are content with these past 2 years.

I definitely understand the frustration, but at this point I don’t think any of us can criticize the owners for their business decisions. Every step they, along with Michael Edwards, have taken so far has been a masterclass in football management. If they don’t want to block the path for the extremely young talent we have coming in, then so be it. They’ve earned my trust.

Compared to City and Chelsea we do

Our club is built to be self sustainable and the massive hit in revenue impacts that. And we’re just not quite at the point United is with generating revenue yet, but I would be willing to bet they don’t spend very big this summer either without selling

My god dude, we just won the damn league by 20+ points...
The model they've used the last 4 years has worked pretty damn well wouldn't you say?

I'm not saying I think we should never spend, but why are we acting like a team that (up until very recently) had looked like the best team in the world needs to spend a shite ton of money?

FSG is always going to be frugal, that's just how it's going to be, but if you don't buy in now, on the day the club will finally lift the Prem trophy, then I don't know when you'll ever buy in.
