I was thinking the same when we were linked to Suarez, That he and torres would not play together.
Anyway here it is... Suarez or someone BIG will leave this summer.
FSG did save us from administration but the net spend eg their investment has been tiny. If anything.
Last year we lost our player of the year Meireles for peanuts. They won't invest heavily which is what we need.
I just feel that our best players will become bargaining chips for any transfers moving forward.
Something about this whole American Ownership stinks and I dont like it one bit.
FSG spent approx 31 million net on transfer fees last summer, which is not tiny. No reason to think they won't invest again this summer.
If someone big leaves it'll be because that player decided to leave, not because FSG decided to cash in. And if someone does leave there's no reason to think that the money won't be made available to the manager (eg. Torres fee).
The £31 million they invested nothing out of the ordinary though, We usually have that amount of money to spend each summer.
They haven't invested a penny in playing staff. This money comes out of our revenue.
I will not bend to adopt a small club mentality like others have, 2 Bad seasons does not change the fact we are the most presticous club in the country, We are in the top 5 for shirt sales worldwide, or there abouts.
Why should we settle for anything less than a full on assault on Top 4. Where we belong?
If they don't get out the check book this year, Face it they never will. They are medium term invetors who will sell the club once we are back in the Champions League.
FSG will not lead us to the EPL championship, They bought the club for £300 million or so. If someone offered £500 tomorrow they would sell up!
They do not care for us in the same manner they do with the Red Sox.
