They've done well but it may surprise people to know that the current squads cost in transfer fees:
Southampton £171m
Bournemouth £89m
With squads packed with players costing £6m to £16m.
So no fairy tales, but the media would have you believe otherwise because of the tiny Bournemouth stadium.
A great club, but will the silly PL money talk and join boring Watford.
I forget to mention, many think Stains will sack Puel this week due to their dull low scoring style, and Silva has been mentioned as their target...
As will all of the new top 7, home and away, EACH about about to spend £100m to £250m on new players this summer.
Predictably, we will have to get our 40+ points from the remaining 24 fixtures.
Said by many before in NSC, but the three worst attacks going down, deservedly so. Their very mixed defensive records wasn't the key stat.
To give TB and his team a heads-up on the blueprint to stay up - PL level finishers required.
