Impossible. Last season we bought Cazorla, Podolski, Giroud and Monreal for that fee. Does that mean we had £120m - £160m to spend in the year? And that's before the sponsorship announcement. What about the season we bought Ox, Gervinho, Arteta, Merts, Santos, Jenkinson and Park? That's got to be over £200m. It can't be done that way. How do other clubs manage? How were Spurs able to spend £100m from the bail money and find the wages for those players as well? This can't be the way.
