That’s just the market tho.
Every year, Ferguson added one star signing to thenpostion of need.
Kept them on top of the pile for nearly two decades.
They still do it, but not as well in my opinion.
Pogba and lukaku were £80mil a pop weren’t they? Matic £40 mata £35.
It’s been said we need to be dropping £60-£80m a player to deliver first XI upgrades. We just can do that like Utd can. Hence the need to get the scouts out. And find the next four or five Dele Allis
That was my point, it's not possible for us to go shopping in the premier league anymore, clubs don't need to sell and can afford to slap huge price tags on their best players.
We will only buy players who have just been relegated or are in the championship.
As you say, scouting is key, as is the conviction to do deals.
