Unfortunately all the other leagues are skint .
Years of allowing Barca, Real , Bayern , Juve (lol) totally dominate the tv rights and the other revenue streams has caught up with them. I know the sky 7 and all that but finishing last in the premier league means you can still afford to buy good players from Europe.
sad state of affairs but they only have themselves to blame.
Edit - Sanson is a good player but needs minutes. And what a hunk.
