It's not difficult to work out, according to you lot every player you sell the buyer gets "mugged off" and the cheap replacement you get is better. Isn't that the way it works?
If ifs were buts you'd not have come third in a 2 horse race .... The Maguire (and Chilwell) money was used to substantially fund the new training facility and the purchases of Castagne and Fofana... theoretically we might have held on to top 4 ... then done the same as United, out of the CL at group stage, without the new training ground, Castagne and Fofana ... and exactly where we are now in the Europa ... hindsight is a wonderful thing ... but I'd take our current situation every time
