Some people are taking this transfer window/ITK lark way to seriously.
Look, in years gone by we've spent big and bought sexy, and all we had to show for it was a couple or so 5th place finishes and the odd flirtation with the champions league.
Compare that with the way we've spent, sold and (gasp!) recruited over the last year or two.
Unspectacular in terms of a spectator sport in a thread like this, ill grant you. But, on the field of play (where it counts, by the way), well, you've seen the results for yourselves.
I know which of the two strategies I'm preferring at present. And it ain't the former.
We spent big but didnt buy sexy imo. Hardly any of the players we bought with the Bale money were really sought after and special.
