I dont know much about Frankfurt's development process or ownership, but obviously they're pumping out strikers at a prodigious rate, maybe they're confident about some new up and comers?

The money is nice, but that doesnt really trickle down to the fans unless its used to replace the outgoing players.

At some point Frankfurt are going to have to determine when exactly it is that they feel their window to compete is and hold some players and go for it.
