Honestly, what kind of person watches us win the league opener and then their response is to come on here and complain that we should replace a crucial player to the team that just won the CL and league?

 

Boggles my mind.

 

Imagine looking to replace an aging player who's been poor for over a year, scored what was it 1 home league goal in how long and we haven't just won the Champions League that would be Bayern.  Mind boggling.

It's fucking brilliant not scandalous, winning what we have recently. Would you feel better if we'd have spent say 200m and been further up that table? Bizarre.

Considering it includes this summer, where those clubs have spent really big to try to catch us, I'd say it swings both ways. First, you've got to say that we spent big previously on Van Dijk, Alisson, Keita, Fabinho, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Mane, Salah, et al - anybody denying that's a big outlay, or wanting more just because we sold someone, is missing the point of building a winning team (hint: we did that), and we need to take into account the upgraded contracts to keep the team together (that's what top teams do, BTW) - but it needs to be coupled with the fact that we've gone quite some time without adding to the squad in a significant way. We can see our rivals are spending a load of money to catch up. We shouldn't just let them if the manager wants players we should be able to find the money. We've got a fuck load in these last two seasons, surely there's some pot somewhere that we can piss in?

As usual you miss my point. Imagine what Jurgen could do with third more of some of those outlays? He could set us going forward for years.

 

What we have to watch is that this just isn't  a flash in the pan or a one hit deal. And who are we going to get in to compete with Jurgen's achievements on a budget of 23 million over 4 windows??

Stop pretending the squad he built to win was done on 23m. It was done before then, and ignoring world record signings outlines your lack of objectivity and evident bias.
