    I really think we'll struggle if we don't bring in an attacking player.

    Yeah, but apparently we should ignore those past two seasons, and instead keep our fingers and toes all crossed that this time it will all be so different.

    Lets all wait, for the third straight season, until about November time before highlighting the clear deficiencies in our squad. It's far too early to do it yet.

    Gallagher is going to save us.

    Someone will be able to tell you where we sit in the league for spend. It’s not in the bottom half so I still say we have spent enough, we just haven’t bought well enough. Everyone knows we have too many average squad players. We are loaded up with players we cannot shift and that appears to be the main issue at the moment. You say we have money, the club says we do not. We have a couple of gaps and one glaring weakness. I agree with what you are saying at heart but it won’t change in one window is how it looks to me. Maybe we will pull Golden Boots Guido back in January if Gallagher fails to save us all.

    This is from April I think so not completely up to date, but the discussion is about the last few seasons so it's still relevant. On gross spending we're 8th out of the 14 the (at that point) ever-present clubs in the Premier League since June 2014 and on net spend (which I would argue is far more relevant because it reflects the importance of the players the club has sold as well as those signed) we are bottom by some distance.
