RAG: It's about getting the right balance though, Fergie has mastered that and has always had a good blend of youth and experience, and has always been willing to be patient with the young players to see them succeed. Wenger has just tried to mould 11 young players together, which won't work. You need that guidence from the more experienced people in your team.
I'd hate for us to do a City or Madrid and just spend stupid sums of money each season in their quest for glory. Chelsea in fairness to them had a couple of seasons of heavy spending to get them to the top and haven't spent massively since, they've spent quite reasonable IMO, which is fair enough.
I wouldn't mind if we had a rich owner, just so long as we didn't rely on his money to be successful. As people have rightly pointed out our spending and our success has come about through years of hard work and being run in the right way...some summers we have gone out and spent big, others we've spent nothing. It's all about getting the right balance. The 06/07 title was probably my favourite as it was long overdue and it wasn't won by massive spending, it was won by showing faith in our young players and blending that in with experience. That summer we sold Ruud and brought in Carrick, truth be told I didn't give us a chance but of course Fergie knows better than any of us. I'd have hated it if we'd gone out that summer, spent £200m and won the league.
