In fairness, this was always going to happen. We were tight because we were building the stadium (and training ground before it). As soon as they were done, we started backing the manager much more, including Poch's last summer (N'Dombele and Lo Celso). Just a shame it came as Poch was burning out here.That true, not their fault we gave insane wages - but in terms of buying and selling, they have been on kind of rampage under Conte. Compared to how tight they were under Poch and even Mourinho.
From memory, we still have the 6th largest wage bill in the league but we've closed the gap significantly.
Its amazing the job he and Patrici have done in turning around the squad and club in a year. Easy to forget how low most of the fanbase felt when he took over. Things looked genuinely dire.
