Deuce Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 On the verge on an eleventh, too. A club on the brink of administration a short while ago and not having featured in the Premier League for three years with a £100m+ net spend. It’s not too uncommon now. Most promoted clubs go for it and spend the TV money to try and compete. They also have very few assets who will go for huge money to affect their ‘net spend’. We have the third richest owners in English football too, which helps. The Sawiris family are eye wateringly minted and Wes Edens isn't short of a few quid either Most importantly, they're not just throwing money in and hoping for the best, they've appointed a coach with a good paying style and the brief to get the whole club playing that way, appointed a head of recruitment (Pitarch) who has put together a Europe wide scouting system and put in place a CEO who has done the job at Chelsea and Liverpool. Apparently they had two plans - players they wanted, basically - put together last season, one for if we stayed down, one for if we went up. That's the sort of sensible spending we didn't have with Lerner, who threw money in and let MON run things Exactly what Fulham fans were saying last Summer. Came up thinking their spending and “playing style” would rip up the Premier League too. Instead the Premier League ripped them up Which I predicted Jesus Christ man, just fuck off.

Oh, I really can't do this circular conversation any more. http://giphygifs.s3.amazonaws.com/media/c6DIpCp1922KQ/giphy.gif Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate End Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 I don’t get why Aston Villa fans throw a fit every time they get compared to Fulham It’s similar surely you can see that? I think you’ll do better than Fulham but you will have similar issues. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Gonzo Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Yeah the money is great and all but I can’t respect anyone going out there for sporting reasons. Like Mayweather fighting that kick-boxer a few months ago or Khan out in Saudi recently, it just makes a mockery of competitive sport. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
