QPR move for Dawson - Overkill?


Reading about QPR 's 5.5 million pound offer for M. Dawson has got me stumped.

Added to their defensive line-up in 2011:

L. Young (4 million), A Traoré (1.5 million), Taiwo (6.5 million), Gabbidon (1.5 million), Perrone (200,000) & A Ferdinand (4.5 million)

In 2012:

Fabio (7.5 million), Onuoha (7.5 million) & Bosingwa (5 million) -

And have just signed Ehmer and Hill on contract extensions. That makes a serious amount of money already spent, probably around 40 million! (And they lost 5-0 on the opening day!)

So are they just panicking, or do they have unlimited funds, because another defender seems like serious overkill to me!? Makes me wonder about the football business machine, and how excessive it all is.
