    I do wonder if the Kroenke's have been shovelling a few quid in. A weird thing seems to have started happening across their sporting franchises since the son took more control- they've started winning stuff!
    trouble is, the level of player we need to be looking at, to keep challenging City and the Dippers, will be £80-£100m in today's terms.

    Not necessarily. Maybe one of those, and a cheaper one.

    You would also hope that the quality of player we will be selling will also go up so the net spend shouldn't be awful. So far we have been giving players away.

    Good chance Liverpool might be ****ed when Klopp leaves.

    Also the core of the side is still very young and hopefully should only improve as they gain more experience.

    Post reported to Alex Iwobi...

    Decent point.

    And as our youngsters get better Real Madrid, PSG, Newcastle(?) and Man City (to whom FFP doesn't really apply) will come and sniff...

    If Real Madrid sign Mbappe they are ****ed for years, PSG , Newcastle the question mark is right, City? We beat them to Rice - not sure they are as attractive an option as you think

    London, even with it's many faults, is still an attractive destination. My worry is eventually spurs are going to have some money.

    But they'll still be spurs...

    Exactly. As long as they remain Spurs, I am not worried.

    R Madrid can always sell their training ground back to the council for 500m Euro. again.

    PSG - I mean who would want to go there? Messi and Neymar did.

    Newcastle - was a ****house comment...

    City - whilst Pep is there, they would surely be the destination of choice, no? (I think Deccers likes the lure of London over the Mancunian drizzle)

    PSG are not the lure they were - they've already gone from Messi and Neymar to Dembeke and Randal Kolo Muani (decent players but not the same.) Lots of talk of the Qataris pulling out soon as well. Definitely not worried about them
