Not necessarily, no. Liverpool were arguably the best team in the world for the couple of seasons preceding the last and their net spend was nowhere near their rivals. We were nowhere near relegation despite having a minus net spend under Roy. Burnley are consistently low spenders and are swerving relegation every year. United have spent staggering amounts since Sir Alex left and haven’t really won anything significant. Valérien Ismaël, the guy I’m routing for to join Palace finished 5th in the championship on a budget of next to nothing. This could go on. The point is this, Wolves aren’t in the position they are as a result of "pluckiness" and defying the odds. They are where they are as a result of spending big and hiring a very good manager. But there is a reason that manager has left the club and even those with the biggest links to Wolves aren’t entirely sure what it is. If it were simply wanting to return to Portugal as reported initially, he wouldn’t be joining another club in England. If it’s not down to that, and he joins Palace of all clubs, there is a good chance that it’s political, Mendes is involved and as soon as the board refuse to bow down to his demands, he’ll jump the Palace ship, too.

Whilst Nuno would be the headline appointment - that doesn’t make him the best fit for the club. If he were coming no strings attached it would definitely be a coup, but he won’t. Edited by Mstrobez (01 Jun 2021 6.41pm) Liverpool net spend isnt a good example, they are very shrewd in selling players £200m for Courtinho and Suarez, another £50m for Benteke and Sakho, another £40m for Brewster and Solanke.

Dom Fyfield - usually not too far off Palace news quoted by HITC - Speaking on The Totally Football Show, Fifield said: “I would say one of Nuno (Espirito Santo), Sean Dyche or Valérien Ismaël, any point next week.” I would be delighted with any of those - hope it’s right! Mate if it’s going to be NES - Parish will need to move quickly with Everton now looking for a new Manager - like it or not Everton will be a bigger draw than us for NES if they come knocking. The reported 3 days of negotiations will mean nothing - there ain’t no loyalty or sentiment in top flight football its ruthless and mercenary. Personally I’d be over the moon with NES - huge step and statement in the right direction - but I’ve got a horrible feeling we’re going to get “gazumpped” by Everton. If that happens back to the drawing board and time we can ill afford to lose with so many players out of contract and a significant rebuilding job to be done. Come on Steve get NES signed up..!! COYP

Nuno or Dyche Two completely different managers. Either would be better than Lampard who failed with one of the best Chelsea squads in decades.

I had a look on a couple of Swansea fan forums to see how they felt about losing Cooper. Seems a lot of them would quite like to see the back of him due to the boring style of play. Hmmmm

Actually, that would make them the perfect example as to why net spend isn’t necessarily synonymous with league position.
