Buying star players is over. That's not how you become a force again. We could have gotten Bellingham, Haaland, De Jong, Rodri, long before they were stars if our board had half a clue. Instead of paying Sancho £350k a week and a £90m fee. Forget them, even players like Ollie Watkins, James Madison, Mitoma, these are players who we could have easily gotten. We have never been about buying the worlds biggest stars. Fergie didnt get Batistuta. He didnt get Shearer. Or Baggio. Or Del Pierro. All who he wanted. There's no reason why the correct structure wouldnt find the next superstars and have us back to where we belong. But the last 10 years of shown, there is no hope with this current board.
