Surely he could just expand on that and let us now what's going on.
Agreed. Whilst we have made some promising signings, looking at the bigger picture, and on the assumption VDV is headed back to Hamburg, if we do not sign a CM and CF, I just think this window will have been a failure.
If VDV stays (can't see it now), less importance on the CM, but either way, CF is an absolute must. We've known all summer, and still haven't addressed it. Defoe is not the answer, and this new contract is an odd move. Two strikers, one of whom can't play up top on his own, and a relatively untried Harry Kane, is not the strikeforce of a team with realistic top four ambitions.
After all the groundwork, Lloris must be completed too. What happened to the talk of 4pm medical..?
Failure to seal these, is quite frankly embarrassing. I know we are run very prudently to maintain a stable foundation, this is better than being in mountains of debt like other clubs, but if the powers that be truly expect us be competing for CL football, then the investment has to match the ambition. No point changing managers if he is not going to be given a squad with talent and depth capable of doing the job.
I'm still hopeful Levy will prove he's the man, and deliver the players required, but unfortunately the last few windows haven't quite panned out like that. Fingers crossed this time, with a new manager, he will be backed up.
Sod Lloris, why is everyone preoccupied on what is a pretty pot luck position anyway. If he does a De Gea we will be out of the CL race before we start. It's all about the Mouts for more reasons than I have time to type.So you've decided it's our fault (or specifically Levy's fault) that the Lloris 'deal' appears to have fallen through? It hasn't occurred to you that Aulas is renowned as a Grade A ****?
What's happened to the mods? Has the latest RO info been verified in anyway?
lyon's official site. although they didn't say it's off, just that it hasn't been agreed because we've offered less than we agreed a few days ago.
