I think youth players would be scarred if thrown into such a dysfunctional team. Would love it not to be so. Think summer will be big though. Think all of this is long term planning & not panicking and creating problems long term by doing something short term.
Time will tell if it’s right approach

Me either. Selling hotels to your parent company is just a joke.
Clubs should be able to dream. But clubs shouldn’t go under because an owner dreams well beyond their means.
United had a great title battle against Leeds (lost), Villa (won), Blackburn (won and lost).

I think finances are that bad. We lose £100m a year, buy players on the credit card. Usually panic buys who are very difficult to sell on. Do think summer can be good. Evans, Lindelof and Eriksen leaving frees up 20m py alone. Casemiro/Rashfird leaving makes spending a good amount a lot easier.

Tbh, PSR I think was because of City and tightened because of Newcastle. Countries can outspend everyone.
I don’t think the rules are working and I’m not sure what they should be either.
I do think they play a role in making sure clubs don’t go under. Many irresponsible owners.

I think it’s mostly wages covered. High percentage. Which equates to maybe £5-6m this season.

I’m not sure he’s the guy we get from Sporting. Quenda I feel is the jewel. And a great age. I’m concerned though that if we got Osimhen that the ego might be too big. But we’ll see. I’m optimistic though for a good summer.

€10m fee and €2m wages for 5 months.
In amortisation, that’s a £50m purchase in the summer.

I think he will and Quenda sounds like he’s already being lined up for the RWB.

It’s a marriage of convenience for both Villa and Rashford. I believe the comments attributed to Emery that he rates Rashford highly but we’ll see. In 2020 I thought he would be truly elite but the last 4 seasons have been a mystery.

Not paying the exorbitant fee spurs are playing is a success to me.
We’ve habitually done short term deals to paper over the cracks and it costs us every time. I’d rather get the right players at the right prices in the summer than getting held to ransom by other clubs.
