You know what. Yes, yes, billion pound stadium, world class training facilities and transformed from mid table obscurity to champions league regulars. Enic have overseen a complete overhaul of our football club.
However, Levy can talk about “200m net spend” all he wants - the lion’s share of that was the last windows. The team has been criminally under invested over many years. So many times we’ve been close and needed a player or two. Needed a striker and got Saha. Spent money on players only to be duds.
He cannot say that spending will be affected with no CL but not spend on the players required to achieve said CL. You have to speculate to accumulate.
Yes, we’ve gone from continually being fleeced for our best players to holding onto them but this has also backfired, with players now worth nothing but needing replacement.
We can talk about record revenues and profits for us, but look at the other teams. Liverpool have lower profits but the owners are happy because they are getting sustained results and a legacy on the pitch. Our record revenue is going into Joe Lewis’ pockets whilst the team falls apart.
I’m not going to be “Enic Out” yet, but something needs to change and and ultimately starts with Levy. He is the first chain of everything that’s currently wrong. He needs to change his ways or go now. Enough is enough.
