Lets get one thing clear.
Spending obscene amount of SOMEONE ELSE'S MONEY
Does NOT = ambition
Lets get one thing clear.
Spending obscene amount of SOMEONE ELSE'S MONEY
Does NOT = ambition
No one else can afford to spend 20-30m a pop on players (Adebayor, Jo, Santa Cruz, Boateng, Robinho, et al), realise they won't work, move them on for a loss then start again with whoever else is available. Basically, it's a case of spending whatever the fuck they can until they get it right. No sense of good business practice or management nous.
That does represent no class.
It's better to burn out, than to fade away.
