It was only recently we started losing our best players in the grand scheme of things. Admittedly they weren’t so on the radar when we were in relegation scraps every season. I think we’ll not sell so many in the next few years myself.
we’re never going to stop being a selling club as there are simply one or two maximum non-selling clubs in the world.
it would however, be nice to get to a point where we can regularly keep hold of our top talents for two or three seasons as opposed to one. i feel like that is achievable
I think that gradually our model will evolve, and it no longer becomes 'necessary' to sell our top players for silly money. We are getting a reputation for bringing on and developing players, so I can see that in some time in the future our business model could actually be a greater turnover of lower players - rather than unearthing gems who go from £4m to £115m. £15m profit on 10 players is the same overall profit.
