Oh no we missed out on Danny Wilson. Were we after him?
Spot the difference.
Spurs qualified for the CL with a good, fairly young team with few deficiencies and an experienced manager.
Liverpool finished well out of the top four with gaping holes in their team, three of their best players are either reaching 30 or have serious injury problems, and they have changed managers and are in financial turmoil.
Which one do you think is going to be in more need to sign players? All your incessant whining on this site is getting really tiresome. It's July 21st and other than Sandro we have signed no one- except our manager and our two best players whose contract merited renewal. God, where's the nearest bridge for crying out loud. Grow some fucking balls and look at the bigger picture.
I'll admit I go through patches during the season and silly season when I am very negative. It's just who I am, and while I do realize that can be annoying to others.
I'm not lamenting the players they have signed. We don't need any midfielder, imo. What I am lamenting is that while you contend that we need nobody, we obviously do and the club have made noise about finding some players. We can contest the position, that's for certain. Yet in that vain, we can't get things done. Richards, who we're openly after, is making Kaboul look like a quick signing. Wickham has been going on since the spring. The one you bring up, Sandro, took well over a year, and he's not with us yet. Hodgson has been at LFC for a week and got shit done. Came in and piped us for Cole (I'm not saying that's a bad thing)
Our methodology in signing players is what worries me. Everything is protracted and painful. There's something wrong with that, because too often it ends with us doing 10 pieces of business in the last 48 hours and trying to mesh a squad in September rather than in preseason.
Notice here that I am trying to be civil with you this week. Respond with your typical wind up comments towards me, and it's going to be impossible for me to show any further civility ever to you. Okay?
