According to some that will be some sort of super tactic on MON's part!!
I believe so. I think MON toys with the media whenever he can. I dont mean this to sound bad but you cant trust what he says because i daresay in his mind he has very different plans.
it's a blatant 'buyers tactic'. you dont go out there, mismanage expectations and reveal your hand (budget). that would be daft.
He dosnt just do it when it comes to buying players. He does it with everything.
