In comparison of popularity yes! But when teams like Barca and Madrid are spending 300 million and adding the top players in the world were not equal. I'm not saying we should be spending 300 million every summer, but we should be spending more than we currently are. We lack depth. Our starting 11 are one of the best in the world. But to try to defend the CL and win the PL we need more weapons. Spurs are better and amazingly City got better.
Who cares what they spend, just because they are signing players for big money doesn’t mean anything, you only have to look at Coutinho!
Or look at PSG, near on 400mill worth of players in Neymar and Mbappe alone, what do they have to show for it apart from walking a piss easy league? A league that they made a mess of with amount they were still losing as the season came to a close. They didn’t clean sweep the cups either. Juventus spent 100mill on Ronaldo and little to show for it, they actually had a worse season than when they didn’t have Ronaldo.
Couldn’t give a sh*t what other teams spend or who they sign because United, Barca etc have been signing all these big name players and it’s not working out for them.
You don’t know City and Spurs have gotten better, the signings could be a flop.
You say we need better outside our starting 11, and whilst we do, it doesn’t make success any more likely. Look at City, probably the best equipped squad in world football, yet come nowhere close to winning the Champions League.
You worry too much about other teams.
