I'm playing with Spurs at the minute (with a transfer update).
I didn't go too wild with new signing - I got Baines and Felliani and some youth prospects but shipped out Adebayor, Parker, Gylfi S, Assou-Ekotto, Capoue and Huddlestone to compensate on the wages and transfer side.
I'm still making a massive loss each month though and have seen my balance plummet into the red. So know I'm selling Dembele and Defoe to try and reduce costs further and rely on youth with cheaper wages.
Thing is, despite all my work to trim the wages and being in the red, the board just gave me 60 million to play with at Christmas to mount a title challenge (I'm four clear and unbeaten dropping only four points to Liverpool and Man Utd).
They clearly got Levy's stats wrong!
Is this a case of the board losing their head entirely?
Or are they expecting to claw a good chunk back through the TV and prize money I'm going to win them - with champions league at least almost guaranteed for next year (I probably have 20 points on fifth).
Would I be a fool to spend it?
I have Phil Jones willing to join me for 30million and 50k a week. He could be the rock my team is built around for years to come.
I want to be responsible but the temptation to splurge is pretty strong - particularly since I've cut my strike force to Soldado, Fierro and Maupay.
