Christ that article makes it sound like we are having a season like Arsenal, Liverpool andChelsea (in the league). I don't see why spending should come in to consideration when we won the league last year and we are joint top with the team who stockpiles and pays ridiculous wages to the best players. People moaned that we paid £30m for Rio and £16m for Carrick when we could have got them for a fraction of the price had we bought them before they went to Leeds and Spurs respectively. Now we try to buy young talent before they become stars (e.g Jones, De Gea etc.) and people now want ready made stars. You're dammed if you and dammed if you don't.
