Such a missed opportunity.
Yes and no. They have the money and they will spend, but what they’ve done up to this point is down to Eddie Howe.
They've spent about £120m over the summer which is a sizeable amount but dwarfed by the likes of Chelsea and Man Utd. Given the bulk of that team was battling relegation last year and look competitive for top 4 this year they are over performing even allowing for their increased spending power.
Got Joelinton and Almiron to perform too. Schar has looked very solid as well.
Man Utd has played the most games against the "big 6" so far and managed to do well.

That Laurie fella is the Athletics Utd mouthpiece. Never seen him say one thing negative about that club.
We better dick Ajax and ensure that second qualifying spot.
I guess the other way of looking at the Forrest result is - no-one else really took advantage of our fuck up.
We're going to be left behind by all these football empires and $$$. 😳

I always thought FSG's transfer market stance more or less played a part in Edwards leaving. His hands are kinda tied here. At another club, he has more chances of making interesting signings - succh as those from South American markets or signing up and coming young talents (20ish, not the Doak, Clark kind). Just a intuition. 🙂

Now that's the definition of the word TRAITOR.
I hope IT remembered to cancel his onedrive account.
Although on a serious note, how reliable is this source ??

The problem isn’t identifying talent show at Man U. It’s the splurging obscene amounts on the latest galactico or hype. You know, Lukaku, Pogba, Cristiano Ronaldo, Maguire, van de Beek and all that type. in their DNA and Edwards will change nothing there.

Looks like top 4 is going to be a tight race.
Manchester City have condemned racist abuse aimed at 17-year-old goalscorer Rico Lewis by Sevilla fans during the Champions League win over the Spaniards at Etihad Stadium on Wednesday.
City said two arrests have been made and police and the club are investigating.
We will not tolerate discrimination of any kind at our stadium," City said.
As taken by itself ya thats all fair and right but then I think back to how they acted and tried to point the finger at klopp and something that happened 5 years ago as an excuse for their fans acting like scumbags at anfield a few weeks ago

If we don't invest in Jan we are looking at 8th. That Melo is fucking waste, just taking up another seat. Ox and Naby are another 2 who will do fuck all all season
