The Olmo situation should be a reality check for us fans

Barca fans wanting Leao and Haaland is like going to a grocery store and getting your card declined, and then thinking: "I think I'll buy a Lamborghini next year." Can a person who had his card declined afford a Lambo? Technically yes, if you get a loan of half a million dollars from the bank and crippling your future. Have we learnt nothing from Bartomeu's big signings/wage bills and losing Suarez and Messi as a result?

We all have our wants. There's nothing wrong with that. You might want Ana De Armas or Sydney Sweeney but realistically, you'll need to settle for asking out your crush, which is equivalent to getting Nico Williams and several high quality low cost/free agents. These more realistic options are safer options, since we have no idea when we will reach 1:1 (we've been told we'll get there 1 year ago) and what our financial situation looks like even a year from now.
