It’s also a case that, irrespective of how they’ve got to the top, now that they’re there, they no longer need to act immorally (payments to parents, routing payments through other subsidiaries, inflating sponsorship deals etc). They can now sit back and enjoy the fruits of their labour because they’re perceived to be the best place for young players to develop and thus the cycle goes on. The best young players then go there, increasing their revenue stream, allowing them to continue to spend reasonable amounts of money filling the gaps the academy can’t with players financed by academy sales. The rest of us are basically screwed 😁.
