Yup, we have. Out squad is bloated, we generate far less cash that our competitors and we're paying bang on what we're able to pay on wages, consistent in terms of % with all the other top clubs. If we can't shift the deadwood bloating our squad, we can't then go and spend more money that isn't in fact available. That would completely contravene what has got us this far. I don't like it but ultimately when you're in a situation that you're not registering 3 players because of the excess in the squad, you can't go beyond your means. Unless you want to sign the players that the non-top 6 have signed? Because not one player in that collective would make our bench.

I earn a certain amount, so a drive an Astra. I'd like an Audi but that would be more than I can afford, so I keep my Astra in good nick and maximise what I can get out of it.

Oh, and well done for ignoring the rest of my post and commenting on just the one part that you were able to pick a fight with (y)

Edit, I've just seen AC post so gonna leave it till after the window

Maybe it's time for Levy to take a back seat on signings?

Can't help but feel his reputation gets in the way of us doing business sometimes, we've all seen certain chairman just want to measure cocks with him and get there "i went toe to toe with Daniel Levy and won (but eventually lost) T-shirt/mug

Maybe it is time for Levy and ENIC to sell up and piss off .

Anything enlightening from the Poch presser regarding poss in's, or out's? Thinking that injuries, players still recovering from the world cup and no one of note coming in could really define our start to the season...

Loan with OPTION to buy would be OK, he is currently injured (two months?) and at least we could check him out. He was at least a previous target and we almost loaned him last season. 15m options, NFW.
