There was all sorts of shit being spouted at this point last year just before our best season in donkeys years.

We looked tired and ragged the last few games of last season due to a lack of rotation and reliance on a few players. With hopefully even more games this year, we are going to go with an even thinner squad and a pressing style. It makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. One or two injuries to key players and you will have Onomah or Edwards thrust into key roles on a champions league team. Levy totally screwed this up and I feel bad for Poch.
Based on that we just need to sign someone in Jan!

So many pathetic posts in here. Keeps me amused anyway. Shame we can't sell some of our fans in the window. I'm sure there's a lot of trolling going on because surely there can't be this many idiots in one place.

there are another 50k on the waiting list too.

Given our need for an AM I don't understand why we didn't move for Nasri on loan. I know a lot of people on here will give me a WTF for this but the truth is he would be a great addition to our front 3. He still has home in London as well so would have been a no-brainer for him.

Because you turned out to be wrong and that can't possibly happen again right?
Yes I admit I thought top six was the best we could get last season. Fortunately for us 3-4 top 4-5 teams had a nightmare season and this has never happened before certainly in a PL season. So yes it could happen again but certainly not this season.

I'm pretty sure at the start of the window it was 3 incoming. Including Pau it's 4. Why are we surprised?

I would hope DL might have asked MP if MS was worth £30m. If he'd said yes I'd have been more worried about the manager than the chairman.
You're correct it was. But then we were told that if we shift Chadli, Mason, Carroll, Bentaleb and Yedlin we will bring someone in.

Poch said we needed someone like Mane.

For the money we're allegedly offering for Sissoko, we could have just signed Mane.

Our transfer strategy is so amateur compared to how every other aspect of the club is run. Hugely frustrating.


Its a great point.

For those with fingers in Levy's bumhole, explain that fucker.

Transfer window will soon close but there are still some exceptional free agents we'll be able to sign like Hoilett, Adebayor, Flamini and Meireles.

When you put it like that it gets even more ridiculous

Personally, I'm only here for the lolz, any signings would be a bonus

i think i need to get a better understanding of not only our club finances but also other clubs. With all this extra money washing around from 3rd place, and CL and new TV deal i thought we might have quite a large positive net spend this summer. But nothing has changed in that respect.

So how are we being out spent by all other clubs? Ones without CL football? without 3rd place prize money? Are they borrowing against future earnings? Are their chairmen loaning them cash? Are we actually one of the few sensible clubs? are do we lack ambition?

We keep being told the stadium won't effect things, but i think it must be.

Can't help feeling we are going to leave the party just before the strippers arrive

And you're doing your share of the trolling with posts like this.
