Probs because we're actively trying to avoid relegation if we can mate. Southampton & Leeds great examples that buying all kinds of yoof isn't necessarily the best policy..
But by signing players with no prospect to be better in the future are we not just doing relegation with extra steps?
Because it's what's currently happening realistically - we're marching down to fight to not get relegated if possible this year, again, 3 years in a row.
There is a middle ground there, and Saints and Leeds aren't relegated because of their 5 young starters between the two teams lol
