Really funny there is bugger all to report. Watching Sky and the likes of Romano breathlessly reporting some minor loan deal in the lower leagues is priceless. It does feel like the punishments so far this season have been a real game changer. Imagine having to improve with clever signings, good coaching and a good youth system. Long may it continue.
Amen!
Biggest proof of that is Newcastle.
Owned by oil-barons, team has 0 depth, many long term injuries + Tonali ban - and NOTHING. Absolutely no reinforcements.
Feels like change of motus operandi for sure.
Now we have double advantage -
1) In terms of buying younger promising players, we have good experience and brilliant track record of late (U-dog, Sarr) ; PLUS our youth teams are flying very high - we are on 100% win ratio in U21 EPL and we also top U18 EPL.
2) When others play their cards with hands tied to their back, WE actually do have FFP wiggle-room to also tap into more expensive and established players market.
