Name your players then. I would go as far as saying that in the last 5 years, looking at attackers, only Haaland, Isak, Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota have justified their fee in the prem. Solanke is pending. And thats 40m+, not 60. We need ceiling raisers, not bench warmers. The odds are terrible.The odds of buying three "misses" at £60m are extremely low. Once you go above £50m you generally tend to have some semblance of guaranteed quality.
It's not sustainable to always wait for a player to hit it big in the Prem.
I agree, who wouldn't? I'd love to pay £60 combined for Mane and Salah. But please tell me where you can find 4 premier league proven players at £35m each which raise our level. We are talking ceiling raisers, not squad building/squad depth.One transfer at that price simply doesn't raise the ceiling the same way 3-4 players around £35m being successes does.
