Last night might have been very useful to us - hopefully Martial and Shinguard's injuries keep.them out for a while, helping our top four hopes, and also that this result means they do take Paunchetino from spuds
The ideal scenario is pottechino to Real and Ole stays at Utd. Win/win.
The ideal scenario is that the opening fixture of next season is Spurs vs Man Utd, the first game at their shiny new stadium, and just as they're about to kick off the whole thing collapses killing both teams and all the fans.
Too much?
If Pep and Klopp are there watching for future games then that works.
And Kroenke happens to be there as well.
Probably in a minority but I have no fundamental issue with our 'self sustaining' model and don't we should expect an owner to bankroll us all the way to the title.
I think we could start with making far better use of the money we do spend. 35 million Mustafis need to be a thing of the past.
In principal it’s a good idea and if the money was spent better we could achieve a little bit more - but the model places a cap on what can be achieved in the modern game, given the spending competition. Also, we have no idea what ‘self sustaining’ model means in the current context of Kroenke owning 100% of the club.
We’re trapped between a rock and a hard place now. Only billionaires can afford to own the club, which either means turning into a City/Chelsea, or being ‘self sustainable’ which can only get you so far.
