So glad we turned down players like Madisson because they‘re 26 but signed 291 17 year olds that are good but clearly not ready

Me too, man, me too.

The 17 year olds aren't even the issue that much. If you'd just taken the money you spent on Disasi, Badiashile, Jackson, and Madueke you could have got Maddison and Szoboszlai and still had change.

Even just try and spent 1bn on a first XI, its actually not easy. Szobo, Maddisn, Rice midfield. Leao, Oshimen, Kubo attack. Thats still only like 500m.
