But I guess it depends if you view it as back up? If striker is a key position, then if it is the one position we've spent money on backup then fine. We haven't exactly spent money on back up else where. We still have a couple of key positions to fill as back up and it all depends on outgoings. We hardly spent much money this summer and massively reduced our wage bill.We only spent 60m on Richie, because we wanted insurance in the event that Kane left IMO
If we got 60m on Richie, I reckon we'd spend (approx) 30m on a back up to Dom, and use 30m to boost the coffers for elsewhere.
Depth is crucial, yes, but only when we have a first team who are all worth north of 60m, can we realistically justify that amount on a back up
