They have always been asking 60-80.

In today's market, IMO 60m for a 21 year old talent producing at a high level isn't bad. If he has another great year, price will only go up. Can either pay what the market rate is, or not.

It isn't bad, it's insane. Basically a few clubs with bottomless budgets have destroyed the transfer market. Today a Monaco can ask anything their little heart desires with the full knowledge that a City, Chelsea, United or Real will pony up. Nobody else is paying this kind of money. This is not a logical valuation for a player who wasn't even playing top flight football two season ago.

TV earnings have also greatly increased. Bottomless budgets are not the only thing inflating the market (although it does help).
Data suggests we have money to spend, so we can either spend to compete for the league, or spend it to compete as a cup team.

These are all separate topics that you're lumping into one.
1. We have money to spend but within limits cause there is no external funding. Remember we have an openly disclosed self sustaining model.
2. TV earnings have increased but are not high enough to fund Mbappe at 160 mil or a player like Lemar who frankly wouldn't start for City or Chelsea at 60 mil.
3. Four clubs are running riot with spending and uefa has no control over the situation.

Yeah Chelsea and City really made things happen by whoring themselves out. No thanks.
