If they get funded by a rich Russian bloke they might.
Look, if they'd spent within their means they wouldn't be in the league right now nothing wrong with admitting that, i've already posted a link to the figures above, but this is just going in circles so i'll leave it there
Everyone forgets the 6 million from Lallana sell-on clause too. They pretty much bought in what they sold. In football terms money they have spent is miniscule.
Fuck knows how much Derby and Boro have spent this year in a desperate attempt to get into the promised land - But it's massive and way above anything Bournemouth spent up till last season.
This years incomings:
Mings - 8 million - Injured in first appearance - out for the season
Gradel - 7 million - Injured in August - back in March - Maybe
Boruc - Free
Distin - Free
Murray - 3.5 million
Grabban - 7 million (But Bournemouth had a 30% sell on clause so knock that off the fee)
Iturbe - 1 million Loan deal to end of season
Afobe - 9 million
Federici - Free
Tomlin - 3 million
King - 3 million
So there's your 41.5 million this year. 11 players. All of that financed by TV money. How much did Benteke cost LFC again?
