You buy expensive players when you don't have the ability to produce your own

It's clear we have a coach capable of developing young talents into premier league first 11.

Therefore i cannot see any reason to spend anything over £5m as our target players are those that young, unheard of, in different markets and possess real potential but need a year or so developing their game to then step up.

We have the experience in the club from the likes of Tettey, Klose, Krul, Pukki, Hanley.

So just why would you buy anyone for £10m. We're not a top 6 club. We have no where near the pull the top 6 have in terms of buying English youth from other clubs. And we also do not have the cash to be spending £50k a week on wages that these players valued at £10m+ expect.

We have the least wealthy owners in both premier and champ. It's time to give up with the notion of spending big money on known players and continue with the money ball approach.

And hey maybe 5 years down the line with the system continuing as it is, we might have the cash then to step it up a gear and buy talent worth between £10-20m. Like the foxes.
