The same transfer in which they were one of 3 teams to actually MAKE money. The American's (Levin, etc.) were supposed to hit the ground running and be spending money, they're the ones who got all the fans all riled up with their deep pockets talk, but when push came to shove, they kept the money instead of spending. This team at one point and time was owned by a community or town trust, and now they're in the hands of Corporate Americans, and look at the results.

Also, you got guys like Ki just going through the motions but he finds his way on the field every week. Fernandez and Rangel shouldn't be playing EPL futbol period, but they're back line regulars.

time will tell, if they're not one of the most active teams during the transfer then mgt is content with relegation, which will cost them millions on EPL TV revenue. At the end of the day, you have to spend money to make money.

Please tell me you didn't just call soccer "futbol"

That should be a consideration for automatic relegation.
