I know what you mean. The problem is you are doing neither. You're not recruiting top players but the likes of Costa and James instead, and on the other hand you're overpaying for talents (at least in relation to Dortmund or Leipzig). 35m for Sanches, 42m for Tolisso, 29m for Coman. That's 106m for talents that don't look like getting you anywhere (and that isn't even counting bonus payments for Sanches). 106m you could have spent on a top player. The only good signing when it comes to talents was Kimmich and we both know it wasn't Bayern who unearthed him.
And now Reschke is gone. What's it going to be now, "this guy played well against us, sign him!" again? I remember Uli saying in an interview that during his prison stay he got a lot of letters from fans who were worried, and he thought that many things in the club are going the wrong way. So is he going to take the club back to the 80s or 90s now? You can't work like that in 2017 anymore. At least Reschke has put a professional scouting in place, even if the results are debatable (whose fault that is, is another question). If you don't have the kind of money Paris and Manchester have at their disposal, excellent scouting is even more important. And top level professionals don't accept your job offers anymore because they don't want to be worn down in power struggles between Uli and Kalle.
It resembles the situation at Dortmund. Someone who used to be a great manager for decades is now hindering a club and even taking it backwards.
Read last night that Dortmund might end up selling both Dembele and Aubameyang. If that happens, it's time the fans really get the forks out.
