We will burn out the top 3 if we have no adequate replacement this season. And no, Origi is no fit to lace their shoes...
Yeah I agree, in 3 months Jurgen will have been here 4 years, his total nett spend in that time averages out at a shade over £19m a season which is ridiculously low for a team competing at the top end of the premier league.
In those 4 years we have qualified for the CL 3 times and reached the final twice, not to mention reaching an EL and League Cup final too.
Jurgen's reign also coincided with an increase in Sky money which, according to the papers, made teams like Burnley and Huddersfield wealthier than Ajax and Anderlecht.
I don't buy that we're skint.
