They spent over 50 million plus last summer plus Smalling and have spent 20 million this summer already plus having a 30 million bid accepted for Hazard.
I must admit that it makes me smile as well every time I read that the rags are skint. I think they spent more than us last season, and are already up £20m this close season.
The rags business model is predicated on them being the biggest and best. Second place will not sustain them financially. I said after the end of season celebrations had simmered down that baconface will be out all guns blazing this season. They simply cannot afford another season like the last one.
In my humble opinion they will spend lots this transfer window. The most valuable sporting entity in the world can call on loans if necessary.
If this share issue fucks up, they will have to recoup the money to finance these transfers from somewhere.
The Glazers will not fund it.
So who paid out the £60m last season? And the £20m this season so far?
Have trhe rags been taken over and no one knows about it?
