    How can a club in the Europa league with a revenue of only 178m be allowed to spend £110m on players?

    I thought FFP was meant to stop this financial doping

    They will recoup most of that back from the sale of Bale though.
    No way Levy would have allowed spending of that magnitude otherwise.

    Still seems crazy spending when you only get 30k a week.

    You can't sell a Bale every year. You have to pay the wages for more than one season.

    It is unsustainable spending for a club not in CL

    I guess he is gambling on Spurs getting into the CL this season.
    Kind of make or break.
    They needed that final push if they are going to make it into the top 4 tbh.

    Yeah well, with the way Arsenal [have not] spent, it looks like there is a big possibility it will pay off.

    To be fair it isn't going to make a lot of difference, 5th is still theirs.

    The most expensive team ever to fail to qualify for CL
