If you can prove to me with a valid argument then I’d change my mind but so far I see nothing but money being thrown around to buy some of the best players in the league

    It’s bad now in terms of the total amount of money spent but the reality is it has always been the same since professional football formed. Apart from the odd exception such as Blackburn Rovers or Leicester winning the prem league, the champions are always one of the top spending teams.
