Do you remember back in the Ivan Gazidis days when he and Arsène Wenger were all like, yeah, when financial fair play kicks in, we’ll be kings of this town… and it never happened, and we were never kings of the town.
I do kind of feel like that’s the era we’re in at the moment, except our ownership group these days invests, and we still win things despite everyone else around us bending rules like Wall Street’s finest.
The ‘owner to owner’ deals speak to one thing to me… close relationships between clubs that have similar challenges.
