If we were funded by a sugar daddy who covered the bills no matter what, I'd agree with you. But we're not. We have to make hard nosed financial decisions.
Everything that is wrong with the club at the moment is because we lost this approach a couple of years ago.
Every one of our players should be available to rich feckers if they're stupid enough to pay over the odds. That's what Chelsea did for Drinkwater and Man Utd did for Maguire. Mahrez and Chilwell were undersold in my opinion and we were robbed for Kante.
If Chelsea are prepared to pay a world record fee for a defender for someone who hardly kicked a ball last season and may, or may not, become a world class defender, we'd be utterly insane to turn it down.
The only logical argument against selling is a fear about our ability to recruit well. From what I hear about the targets we have, it feels to me as though they are much more of the 'reinvest and grow' (Fofana) type than the insane 'spend and die' (Vestergaard) type.
If, as seems to be the case, the club have learned their lesson from stupid decision makng for a year or two and are going back to basics, then we should cash in and be Leicester City again.
