Lol, that would require many things we don’t have, namely ambition, competent commercial director(s), foresight, and so on. Ki was signed because his price was right and no ****er else wanted him.
Quite how or why anyone is surprised is beyond me. We always operate like this. On the plus side, we will never go bust, on the negative, we won’t win anything. Survival brings in the money. If you consider the amount we’d need to spend in order to become a force, MA would never sanction it. As much as I’d love him too, I know he won’t.
Leon Balogun (Mainz) Free Details Joseph Tomlinson (Yeovil) Free Details Florin Andone (Deportivo) Undisclosed Details Jason Steele (Sunderland) Undisclosed Details Bernardo Fernandes da Silva Junior (RB Leipzig) Undisclosed Details Hugo Keto (Arsenal) Free Details David Button (Fulham) Undisclosed Details Andone and Bernardo cost around £15m. Don't believe Transfermarkt as gospel. They reckon we paid £23m for Wijnaldum. Besides which, it's still comfortably more than NUFC, isn't it?
Yeah but in the mind of the fat one, why spend the money when only the same outcome is likely to be possible. I don’t agree with it. Being a fan I want to see proper investment. I just know it won’t happen.
Bournemouth - 1 signing Burnley - 0 signings Chelski - 1 signing Palace - 1 signing Everton - 0 signings Fulham - 2 signings Man ****ty - 1 signing Spuds - 0 signings Man Utd, Leicester, Liverpool and Us with 3 signings God we have a lot of fannies on this forum
Again as with spend it’s net effect both numbers and personnel. Let’s see how we sit when the window shuts.
Ah! So it is money you are all after - defo a bunch of fannies then! We have 3 signings which is more than almost half the clubs in the PL. Look at the signings of Huddersfield, Cardiff, Brighton etc realistically how many of those would you be creaming yourself over if it had been us who signed them - my guess none?!
Re-read but this time in English. It’s not the number of players signed it’s the net number of players signed and who has gone and who has signed that counts. Also relevant time is when the window shuts. Hope that helps.
Apologies - so apart from Merino who have we let go that was in first team squad contention last year? Haidara? Haha! Gamez? Haha! Ah! Maybe it is one of those future sales that played so much last season like Colback? Saivet? Mbemba? Mitro? Basically just Ritchie and if that goes through we could get Townsend who Rafa rates higher (not for me personally but hey ho)
I’m sure the reference to hags is discriminatory and as a mod I’m obliged to do something. So, consider whatever I’m supposed to do as being done and let that be a lesson to everyone.
