I think it comes down to correct scouting than anything.
Even with CL football we can easily lose out on a player to a bigger team.
It’s easy to put up wish lists but targeting obtainable players is the key.
Maybe in the pre new stadium days when we wouldn’t pay the wages, but not now. Our income just means we can now. Although I guess we might lose out to the super clubs, they can’t buy every good player.
Actually, we do already have the highest wages growth over the last 5 years of all top 6 clubs and that’s without a full year of stadium income.
