We are a very profitable business. We can afford to invest in the squad. Football clubs actually do that all the time...Would leave us in a much stronger position than we are now.
My more pressing concern, with our insistence on balancing the books, is where does the money for these transfers come from?
We can't realistically expect to make much money from selling Aurier, Sissoko, Wanyama and Vertonghen. We could probably add KWP and Rose into that mix as players likely to leave on permanent deals in summer, along with maybe one of Lamela or Lucas, but in reality I can't see those ~7 players bringing in anywhere near enough to cover those 4 acquisitions.
