Well, so you give me 4M pounds, right? 7M Euros then.
Right.
Keeper: Lopez Vallejo. Villareal. Makes 32 years this year, they're looking for a keeper, and I'd get him for 200K
Def midfielder: Fredson, Espanyol, who hasn't played much and is competing agains Moises, Eduardo Costa, Ito, Jonatas, and De la Peña in his team. I'd bring him on loan, or very cheaply, for another 200K.
Forwards. Guayre. Celta de Vigo. Pacy, skillful, and Celta is about being relegated. 600K, and there it goes the first Million of Euros.
Attacking mid, Jorge, Celta de Vigo. Hasn't played much in a good team that is going to be probably relegated due to squad fatigue and not using rotations. 600K, Celta needs money.
From Nastic de Tarragona, already relegated, Calvo, Campano and Gil , the three of them for 1 Million.
From Deportivo, Juanma, CB. We got Arbeloa cheaply as they needed money, I could bring Juanma for 800K
Valdo, Osasuna, not strong economically team. Attacking mid who can play in the wings aswell. 500K.
Milosevic, forward, 33 years, still lethal, he'd come in a free transfer. And Muñoz, who hasn't played much but is a decent player, 300K.
Garrido, LB, Real Sociedad, Spanish international sub 21 years, for a million and a half, he's here. LFC has first option for every player of Real Sociedad thanks to Rafa, and there's not much money in Spanish football until the new TV agreements come. Gonzalez, CB, Real Sociedad, 500K.
And I think I still have a couple of millions of Euros to spend, if so, I'd bring RS keeper Bravo, who has the fifth better record of the Liga, despite being in a struggling team. He subbed the other keeper, Riesgo, and reduced the received goals dramatically.

So there you have St Michael, a team with 4M, Getafe-ish made, and capable of sorting the likes of Watford, or Charlton, or Wigan.
My point with this is to show that the money that is being moved in England is too big right now, as it was in Spain back in the 2001. Right now, the english Market is too expensive.
In the mean time, I'm of the school of thought that an English team has to have at least 4 or 5 English players to keep their "personality" -- I don't like Arsenal because of that, but you certainly can do a lot of things with 4M pounds, that's my point.
