The type of player we want and that will improve our first team, especially an attacker, is also the type of player who thinks they have a chance of Madrid, Barca, PSG, Man U, Citeh etc etc. It is not just a question of asking their club how much and Levy handing over the cash. They will have options. We have to understand that with these types of players we will not be their dream or the biggest payers. They may be very happy to come here but the idea that we just get "Levy to stump up the cash" takes no count of how the system works. We may well be prepared to do just that but the players are potentially sitting with 2 or 3 offers while waiting to see if one of the really big boys comes in for them. Is it any wonder we do our business late in the window?
