Thank god we've got new quotes to get this thread back on track with proper dissecting specific lines and sentences and ignoring others. He said the word "massive" which I like so I'm claiming that one to come up with a definition for. You all pick the other words you like and we'll see what we can coble together.

Poch is very careful with his language and if he is criticising the way Levy runs things, he always couches it in fluffy, positive language. Sometimes more delicately than others. If you focus in on the positive when Poch is making a critical point like this, then you've got your head in the sand.

My gut tells me he'll be right and it will just be Grealish.

My gut tells me Poch will be gone next summer. He wanted signings for a squad that needs a few to keep developing and With 2 days left it seems he hasn't been backed.

Im not sure how a club of our size and stature are unable to bring in a couple of players that could improve our first 11.

The excuses have been ridiculous and all over the place.

Besides Liverpool, who have completely destroyed the market by paying absurd prices for players, which of our rivals have brought in a couple players that improved their first 11?

Why have they destroyed the market? The market has been crazy for a while and not because of Liverpool. Good on them, they went out and bought the players they wanted early at a price they were happy to pay. All this nonsense about Liverpool destroying the market.

All this hypocrisy about the market being crazy, how about Levy who sold a player for 100mil to pretty much kick all of this off.

Yeah, cos it was Bale's sale that started it all :rolleyes:


On a completely unrelated note, could someone kindly explain why Donna Cullen is suddenly the new Enemy Of The People? Is there a genuine reason, or are people just so angry that they're preparing secondary targets?

I would love to know who Poch wanted during this window. And why we didn't end up getting them.

It will no doubt be for a multitude of reasons. Agents, other clubs, selling clubs valuation, the player themself.

But it's pretty criminal not to be in a position to strengthen the squad knowing full well this window is approaching.

Oh to be a fly on the wall in Poch and Dan's meetings.
