FFP relaxed, why not? I don't see anything that would frighten the current top teams though.

If it was us Beefy we would be getting slaughtered in the media for not winning the CL , the Premier League , the FA cup etc etc , So £300 million gets you the Wenger trophy these days and a qualifying spot for the CL and its ok ? No out and out world class players bought with that cash aswell , but that's ok ? So much for we bought the league and al that with our meagre spending oh and we get slapped with ffp for doing so . Media and UEFA aren't batting an eyelid at the rags for "buying" 4th spot ............. funny old world innit ! ;-)

There was a brilliant image on here last summer about spending in the league and United were way ahead at the top.
Wonder what that would like like now given their spending this summer and our 60m this summer

Sure is pal and very much ' One rule for one .....'.

But we know that, don't we. The agenda/bias is there for all to see, more so this season than others.

Sad to say, with their resources, they'll keep spending until they get it right

You know what, don't care.

Don't care what we spend and certainly don't care what the media make of it.

When Sterling is worth £49M, di Maria is worth £59.7M, Bale is worth £91M.

Well it's all a bit surreal isn't it? I doubt most of us can actually comprehend that much money. Wait...

Image

To put it another way, what Wayne Rooney reportedly earns in a week, in my current job it will take me a decade to earn the same money. If I started work at 18 and worked till I was 65 and retired, what I earned at this current rate, Rooney would earn more in 5 weeks....for kicking a football....for 90 minutes a week(yes, he trains as well, FUCK OFF I'm making a point).

The brothers Grimm who oversee operations must be gnashing their teeth at the money they are wasting that could otherwise be utilised more effectively, ie into their already deep and bulging pockets.

The pressure must be mounting on LVG and it will be fun to watch him this season
