    Fair play. But you should also be the best side, I guess?

    Should be by the time the rebuilding is done and th team has played for a while.

    There wouldnb't be a need to spend so much if the team was good, would there??

    Is it that surprising? Financially, the biggest club in the world. Bound to have money to spend on top players rather than searching the bargain basements

    If it was that simple Chelsea would have won more than one title in the last eight years.

    When Chelsea were spending money like there was no tomorrow and scooping up the best players, they were literally on their own. City started spending after the oil riched owners took over. Abroad PSG and Monaco started to spend big too.

    United for the first time is spending like the biggest club. They are doing it because they have to and from a position of weakness. Why didn't ****ing do it last summer?

    There are now so many teams who are spending big that all United can hope is to compete for the totle in the next few years...<ok>

    Had it not been for Ken "Del boy Trotter" Bates flogging of he dead horse of Chelsea to the Russian crook, you would still be a yo yo club like West Ham. The FFP terms will put a severe restraint on you and Citeh .United's financial clout comes from achievements, not sugar daddies.
