And yet the club you accuse of inflating these fees have exactly how many of these 100m players? The curves on income and tv money in particular are very similar to transfer spend since the early 00's long before City.
You're still missing the point, once average defenders are going for 30m then good defenders go for 50m and great defenders for 70m, even if you don't buy a single 70m pound players buying 3 or 4 much worse players for 50m sets a new market value.
It's like property, as basic example let's say people in the UK are buying and selling houses solely to live in, suddenly a foreign investment company comes in, they decide they're going to start buying 1 bedroom houses for 10,000 more than the current rate so they can rent them out. If they buy tens of thousands of these properties, even though they never buy a property with 2 bedrooms that are more expensive than the 2 bedroom properties even with the extra 10,000 pounds on it doesn't matter because once people see smaller, less valuable properties going for 10,000 more than they used to, they're no longer willing to sell their two bedroom properties at the old rate, because the whole market has risen in value.
Do you understand?
