    I know you're playing devil's advocate here FLT, but in my mind Katherina has made two fundamental errors so far in her stewardship. First one was not finding some way of working with NC moving forwards (I don't believe a way couldn't be found). Second one was Krueger.

    Bingo. We'll get back 120m+, spend 70m to show our intent, and the rest will be in a sock for future use of some sort...totally on players, obviously, at some point, but not now.

    Sure but it's making it trickier to buy above our station, that's undeniable.

    I just hope RK's sway with the Classies, Van Dijks and De Vrijs of this world proves to be rather spectacular. It may well do so.

    **** it. New era - let's sell everyone from last year and start again. Fed up of clinging on to the tatters of last year's team.

    Until someone at the club hears him listening to "London Calling", at which point his heart is in the wrong place and he'll have to be sold, too.

    So why didn't he stay then? She's be gone and he's still remain as the key figure at the club. If that was me I'd want to meet the new potential owners and see if they matched my ambition.

    Or are we choosing to ignore the media reports that said she wanted him to stay?

    She may well be wanting to sell, I am not doubting that bit at all.

    You might need to add an extra teardrop to that manatee. (I'm terrible with sea creatures so who knows if it's a manatee)

    Personally don't think this is the right deal for the club or Chambers to be honest. I'm not sure he's ready for a big move and certainly won't be an Arsenal starter like Shaw will be at United, and surely he'd be worth much more in a season's time!? Plus the PR damage is surely not worth it?

    It is. And here I thought that I have had the manatee avatar here and abroad for so long that I hadn't even noticed that it was still the teardrop one...turns out I was psychic!

    Because the chances of any new owner giving him the same power would be quite low. His position would have been "things stay the same or I walk".

    Or a big old boat for the owner, which is quite similar to a player in some ways.
