Only Real Madrid are the all time big spenders.
I can recall only one brief period in the late 60s - early 70s when they were not buying everything across the board.
Even players they hardly needed.
Barca also during the last 10 years.
I don't know what makes them so rich.
We seem to be a poor house at the moment.

Chelsea have submitted an offer of £15million, plus Christian Atsu, for Leicester City winger Riyad Mahrez. [Marca]

We can't really sign anyone, because we don't know who will be our manager next season. We just can't buy tons of players and then sell them, because they just don't fit into our sistem.

on the point about oil......Abramovich got rid of most of his oil assets quite some time back when the price was high.

Lavezzi seems like a Mourinho player alright the only minor detail is that he's no longer our manager...

The Texteria deal has fallen through, Liverpool are in advanced talks.  Pato being described as a sick note player with an attitude problem.  So we miss out on a player who's scored more than Lebonowski for someone who was too slow for Italian football.  Time to sack the talent scouts

Do we really need new stadium ?
The present one dates from 1976, but it's better now than it was in 1976.
The biggest sports arena in Europe they were saying back then.

Stadiums get old. I 've been to the old Amsterdam Olympic stadium. That was the stadium in which the Olympic games were staged once upon a time. It looked like the stadium of a fourth division - Isthmian league team. Now of course they have a new one.

But I don't get it why the bridge is considered old.

The way you describe things we are in for a huge drop in class.

FFP is a joke , new tv deals+sponorships will cancel out Abramovichs sad loss,FFP will help with new staduim accounts. Sell alot of the loanees who are not going to make it here ,most important get rid of anybody around the 1st team who dosn't deserve to wear the famous blue shirt!

financially it makes sense.

The extra revenue on the increased amount of corporate will be massive.

On top of extra corporate, extra supporters through the gates are not just about match ticket sales. There will be extra revenue gained in the club shop, food and drink stalls  plus potential revenue from other sports such as boxing, American Football etc etc wanting to hire an iconic stadium

Why? They're both cup tied in the CL and we're in a "striker crisis"

 

unless it's an effort for us to pick up Griezmann or Martinez, it makes little sense. 

 

Edit: just read that it would be for the summer. Fine by me. I don't like Costa's antics and Pedro hasn't settled. Martinez could be in a swap. I would welcome that, but I'm a bit weary of Martinez's time at Atletico.
