Fair point about transfer fees. But huge wages preclude most clubs from doing this too.
Was more of an observation than anything else. West Ham certainly tries to do something similar, just with way shittier players (e.g. Joe Cole, Benayoun, Robbie Keane of the top of my head)
Which goes back to my point about having success at the time where the PL took off and money really started to roll in. Man United earn more than every other English club... so wouldn't it stand to reason that they should spend more as well?
What is wrong with that?
