God, reading this EVERY SINGLE TIME is so boring. Yes, we are broke, but damn, we are still doing a good job in the market, and no, it is not just 'players that no other top team wanted'. Cancelo isn't washed up or a reject. He has been consistently one of the best RB in the world for several...

You never do... what's the point of commenting that...

Its not weird. According to him our entire team is Europa League quality. Only De Jong escapes that.

They can do more. 80m.

It wasnt all budget signings. You're forgetting we also signed Roque, he's just coming in January because of their club's situation.

LaLiga dross, eh.

Even now we are signing Cancelo on a delayed permanent deal for 30-40m or so, and looking to bring in Felix, so there is still clearly a little more money available. Could have pooled it together 50m or so to get a class DM if that's what was being looked at. But Xavi clearly chose Romeu as...

If they keep 'getting it wrong' it will be Arteta that gets sacked. His project is going into the 4th year now with huge money spent. He will be at risk of sacking if this season doesn't go right.

Because we have this advantage over them : We are FC Barcelona, and way more good players want to come here than go there.

Arsenal may spend but their pull isn't good enough for them to attract top level players. They sign a lot of mid level players who we wouldn't look at due to not being good enough.

To illustrate the point : Arsenal dropped like 300m on this : Havertz, Tomiyasu, Vieria, Jesus, Tavares, Ramsdale, Kiwior, Zinchenko, Raya @serghei Are you desperate for ANY of these guys? Do you really think that 300m spend on those players put them ahead of us a little bit, even at all? We...

Im not saying money isn't a big advantage, obviously, but you also underestimate just how many of the top players in the world were actually cheap signings. It's not very rare, it's actually common.

Arsenal's best players are the cheapest ones. The ones they paid money for excluding Rice are actually the ones dragging their team down. Martinelli, Saka, Odegaard, Saliba = the best players in their team, cost under 100m together easily.

Nah. He cost 45m euros. Some 30m were added to it in 'plusvalenza' and player swaps which didnt actually have that value.

That isnt correct. Transfers of big money between club to club are still very rare in terms of the top players. Chelsea is an exception but not the rule. Other than that, it has still been rare for a team to get their stars merely by buying them for 100m+ from other top clubs. Players like that...

Easiest two groups are City's, then ours, and then the rest are very competitive.

"Well, after all, Shakhtar and Antwerp have better squads, we can't spend hundreds of millions like these English teams."

Antwerp, Porto and Shakhtar. Conference League level group. Thankfully we will not and hopefully never play Europa again.

Here comes Serghei telling us how Shakhtar Donetsk is actually better than Barca.
