Amazing how many managers fall for this. Wait till he needs backing next summer and he gets 5 teenagers.

What makes you think that Frank wouldn't be happy to work under such constraints? He's practically been doing that at Brentford?
First few managers turned Levy down before Frank accepted , evidence below

Collins is slow over the first few yards. Got exposed a few times against us in the home game. Not overly keen myself and also don’t remember it happening very often a manager leaving with a player/players between two PL teams. It just looks bad for a team to be losing both to one team. When was the last one? Fellani following Moyes.
I’d have Samenyo over Mbeumo as well if there was the choice. Two footed, great balance, think he’s just a better footballer. Mbeumo is definitely effective on the break. He’s powerful and does have end product but a bit limited when the space isn’t there

What with the overwhelming amount of teenagers signed under ange...
Because brentford genuinely do the very best they can with the money they have whereas we tend to baulk at the prices quoted for top players and then move onto option d, e and f for over inflated prices.
Yep these targets are fine, now get them.
I'm less interested in wage:turnover than gross spend, and less interested in gross spend than what we get for our money.
A couple years ago our wage:turnover was substantially higher....because we had absokute waste like Ndom, Aurier, Dier, etc. clogging it up.
We're turning over an aging, failed squad - the wage:turnover was always going to reduce when we did that.
He wanted that then admitted he got it wrong.What with the overwhelming amount of teenagers signed under ange...
“Thomas, does this rag smell like chloroform to you?”

Pretty sure Veliz was not signed under Ange- Signed under Conte if I am not mistaken.
Well indeed, but wanted to highlight that he spent a lot of the £400m on players that weren't teenagers
Signed in Aug 2023, 2 months after Ange
This is one of these stories where I just wonder how plausible that level of detail is. Genuinely - would someone with that level of access be leaking it to journos before Frank has even been announced?
But this doesn't alter my point though?
We pretty much shop in a similar ball park to Brentford as well (shamelessly) Gray and Johnson are two of the players Frank wanted in recent seasons.
