Weve got money. We just act like we dont.

70m was earmarked for dybala this summer.
Was it though ?

We can all go to Harrords and have a look at the Patek collections, pretend we are able to buy, even tell all our mates we are gonna buy and then find the financial reason not to purchase and end up wearing Dad’s old Timex to the pub ....which is functional and tells the time better than the Patek. Blah blah blah.

I hope you are right and I am wrong, but why exactly do we hardly ( if ever ) go back early in the next window for the players we “almost” got.....because I fear we were never getting them in the first place :-(

Well post about 200m pre tax profit this year. We did about 130m last year off memory. You cant argue with financial statements.

The debt has been restructured from short to long term at about 25m a year.

So we are loaded.....FACT...

We just pretend like we are not so clubs dont charge us more.

When you buy a player. You pay as little as 30pc up front with the rest over a number of years.

So piatek could cost as little as 10m in year 1. Plus 3 more years of 7m. Sod all.

Absolutely, not arguing at all that there should be money. But short arms and deep pockets keeps hands away from the cash....

I would love us to go for a DM, Berge or Soumare. But sometimes when I'm fantasising, about football, not sex, I can see a 4-3-3 with no clear DM. Ndombele, Winks, LoCelso or Gedson. Where they all help out defensibly and manage it, total football where all can do everything. It'll probably never happened though, just like me fucking Salma Hayek will never happen.

Not missing much, she’s a very selfish lover.
