I think it hurts them more than anything, they are going to be stuck with some players who refuse to go elsewhere
I think their strategy was to buy up all these players so that when the new UEFA rules come in they would sell them for profit, allowing them to spend their ridiculous wages
but if they can't sell them they could be in even more trouble
I think they probably sell a lot of them at a big loss, and have to cover some of their wages as well
guys like adebayor, swp, given, eventually Barry and Milner etc.
only player I could see them making money on who they bought is Adam Johnson
