Money doesn’t automatically make you safe from relegation but on the other hand, buying quality like this won’t do you any harm.

If they want to buy Mitrovic and Targett that will cost them another £30 million perhaps even more
Which means that they will have spent £65 million on basically 1 more player than they finished last season with, that player being an untried Ivorian who has never played in British football
Big gamble

I’m not worried, we’ve resigned Gunnarsson and he’s bloody brilliant.

Spending like us previously in premiership, surely cannot justify 35m on one player ! Only top 7 pay that kind fee plus wages totally nuts by yank owner.

Didn’t mention any of that I’m just comparing quality. I’ll trust Warnock to get it right but I’d love to see a bit more quality come in.

We didn’t spend that much last time around our largest fee being about 11m for Gary Medel whilst Caulker was approx 8m. Also consider the fact that large chunks of the money were recovered in sales. I think that the club need to spend sensibly by adding quality whilst not going mad. Spend 35-45m of the 180-200m the club will get and it has to be a sound investment if the club survives in the Premiership. You survive the first season and most clubs go from strength to strength. It’s only by surviving those early years that some of the top clubs have got to where they are now. 200m invest, stay up, 200m invest, stay up and that’s how it goes. If Fulham spend 60m for example and stay up I’m sure that they will say it’s money well spent. Each club has presumably a sensible figure in mind without putting the club into crisis if they are relegated.
Look at the Championship clubs who are chasing the dream because there are huge sums of money in the Premier League.
