90 Millions was our net spending last year, in a season where the board took (their words) from this year's budget.
Now you said we were ready to spend 130 Millions on bellerin and Veratti, therfore we can bid 150 on coutinho.
My question, how could we increase our annual spending by 80% in comparaison to a budget which was considered exceptional by the board (their words again), after a season without any major sucess ? Is it normal, economically speaking, to raise the spending by 80 % over a year ? (oïl clubs aside).
Nope.
Our total expenditures last season according to that thread was 122m. So you don't think that we have that financial power this year whilst being the second highest revenues in the world (behind United) + having new record Nike and Rakuten deals kicking in?
Sorry, if you don't think we have at least 130m to spend on transfers, I can't help you.
