Buying up and coming players..

and selling them for a big profit to reinvest into the squad has been this club's model for pretty much all my long supporting career. They key is how well we reinvest the profits (e.g.selling Fleck & Maddison each resulted in the creation of a better team). Southampton have stayed in the Prem for years with basically the same model (continually selling their best players)
