Freudian slip?

I've analysed reality shown the correlation to be spurious and a poor predictor.

I have explained the obsession with net spend as you obsess over it, I even predicted we'd finish above Chelsea when you were in a tizzy. Still 25 points better off than them.

You now ask me to analyse various hypotheticals in the absence of your argument based on reality.

Surely my analysis of Alonsos low net spend & your fear over Chelsea due to high net spend should be enough for you to accept as an answer on other hypotheticals.

YOur analysis is deeply flawed, your conclusions lack any sense of logic and frankly I am amazed you still mention any of it.

Here is the net spend table massively skewed by the nigh on £700 million NET spent by Boehly in just the last 18 months! See if you notice the pattern of net spend and success. We are an outlier and you think that makes it a template??

I like being an outlier.
And consistently!

Bump the thread and make your case. If you do I'll oblige you there. Spurious correlations.

I mean manu, City and Chelsea the big spenders from your link, guess they must be having a right battle for the PL title.

As are Real and Barcelona and Bayern and Atletico - all massive spenders relative to their league... YOu and the others are just talking Shyte because there is no other option but to accept that Jurgen has operated with one arm tied behind his back. that is the biggest factor as to why we have missed out a few times when well placed AND why our squad has broken down at others... not quite having the resources to get over the line AND - crucially why the man is clearly so shattered at this point an unable to continue well before his agreed end of contract.

It suits the agenda for those who love our owners, but almost everyone else I speak to who isn't clouded by the romance sees it.

Chelsea 2x League and 2X European Cup
City 7x League and 1x European Cup
United 2x League
Liverpool 1x League 1x European Cup

So of 13 titles on offer we have taken 1, united and Chelsea 2 each and City 7

Now look at the net spend table and see IF you can work out what is going on at the top.

Bayern have a net spend similar to us in a league where half of that would be considered huge!

Both Barcelona and Real have spent far more net than us - again in leagues with far less competition.

Of the 3 title winners in Spain since 2011 guess which are the 3 top net spenders?

It isn’t the entire answer by any means but anyone who discounts net spend - is taking the pish… It doesn’t guarantee you anything but over time it sure as shite gives you the biggest chance of winning the biggest prizes - limiting it makes things a ton harder.

So - enjoy what we have won but also remember we have had the best manager on the planet in situ for almost 9 years! Without him - I don’t think anyone outside our fan base believes we are even on that list of league title winners.

Autocorrect.

I guess your citing football punditry as an authority wasn't an autocorrect

There's a part of this that's funny, circularity.
There's a part of this that's sad.
