What dyou mean who cares? It vividly illustrates how these owners are ripping us off just as much if not more so than the last lot. We bid, we tried -- load of crap. Dyou see Barca saying 'well we tried for Coutinho and Dembele but clubs saying they're not for sale so hey ho.' Everton, f***in Everton are spending more than us now
You pulled 5timesacharm up for not reading your post properly and then you go and not read mine properly. I used the example of Pogba and Mane to show that record signings mean nothing if the player doesn't perform and the same applies to record amounts spent too. City, Spurs, Arsenal for example have had summers recently where they have spent a lot, but what have they actually got to show for it? Especially Spurs.
You say about Everton spending more than us but you seem to forget that they've received around £100mill from player sales, and that's before they have even sold Barkley! So they haven't actually spent much more than us this summer at all, before you start whinging too much.
If Barca don't sign Coutinho or Dembele then yes, that's exactly what they will be saying because like us and the Keita/VVD deals, if the club is refusing to do business, there is absolutely sod all they can do about it.
As for the owners ripping us off worse than the last lot, maybe you need to give your head a wobble lad and remember just how close H&G were to finishing us as a club and sending us into administration. If you think having a lower amount spent than Everton is on a lower level then that then something is seriously wrong.
So in summary, no, I really couldn't care less about what they are spending because like any transfers, it could go horribly wrong for them.
