It does feel like a huge amount to do in a very short period of time, but if there's a bit more money splashing around this time, and with a longer period to sell than to buy, it will be interesting to see if Levy actually does take the risk of buying before selling.
As ever I live in hope that we'll see some significant net-spend this window. As ever I look to the past and would therefore be surprised if that materialises.
I’d agree with all of that. Presumably our lack of net spend for the last decade has been an essential precursor to building the stadium.
What I’d really like to see this summer is bold spending (as Poch put it) on some real established quality. We have raised our wage ceiling, and we have CL football in a new world class stadium with a team featuring established world stars. I don’t see why we can’t attract one or two signings matching the quality of our better players that really mark us out as potential title contenders.
