I could give this multiple Winners. You’ve described my/ours frustration in a nutshell. Brilliant post.I'm not just talking about this season though, I'm talking about every season stretching back for a good few years.
And I'm not a great fan of the whole net spend stuff because none of us know how transfers are structured, or for how long.
The example I tend to reach for is Forest buying about 30 players last year, or Arsenal spending every year for the last umpteen, or Villa spending left right and centre.
I'm not one for the whole accounting/net spend stuff because I don't really understand it but what I do understand is that most other clubs find the money to spend when and where they need it.
We don't but yet we've got one of the highest revenues in world football.
Can we really not afford to speculate to accumulate? Especially when it's European football and the possible future of Kane at risk?!
