You seem to be obsessed with spending money being the only way to success.
I am not obsessed with it at all it is what it is HSC.
We can compete for a short time then we will rebuild and start all over again.
Get a team of talented Raheem Sterlings and we will do great up to the point that they cost too much to keep and then rinse/repeat.
It's not an indictment of FSG, and I am not calling them thieves it is simply reality.
Without spending like the others we will simply rely on luck, sometimes it will get you 2nd in the league; sometimes it will get you knocked out of Europa.
Don't care who the manager is if your solely going to rely on luck or even doing it better than the guys above you (being smart) then there will be inconsistencies year in and year out; that is an inevitability.
Southampton is doing great this year, just like we did great last year, clock is right twice a day.
Next year Southampton may find itself fighting to stay up, I doubt Chelsea will.
Trying to be smarter than the rest of the pack is easier said than done; I don't think those above us in the table are fools.
