Vish John Henry has invested in the equity to stabilise the club but it's small beer and he has not risked it just transferred a sum in the groups accounts. Investment in players is normal trading not equity
What? So you don't need financing either through equity or debt for normal trading? Investment doesn't only mean building/construction, a business also needs investment even for working capital and players are reported as assets on football clubs balance sheet. The equity (in fact most was quasi equity such as non interest bearing shareholder loans) was mainly for the purchase of the main asset, ie players, the money is not sitting in the LFC bank account. Most of Abramovich's investment you gloat about was for the same purpose
