Not the first time JJ has said that the business is full of greedy people with no business ethics and that the market is crazy. But shouldn't we've learned this by now?
Unfortunately we don't make the rules, and we're not in a position to just say "Fuck it, we don't agree with this so we ain't playing the game!" We can't operate in a vacuum. We need players.
It seemed like Liverpool payed crazy money for vvd, but as it turns out the they were ahead of the market and got a reasonable deal.
If there was one time were we should've just bitten the bullet, then it was this window. I appreciate that it's a lot of money and that we as fans don't know all the ins and outs, but from the outside it seems like we're in a critical state in more ways than one and that were not willing to accept the reality of the situation. Instead we're looking for things to blame. Either it's other clubs or agents, players not wanting to join, money or just disagreement within the club (poch only wants this, poch doesn't want to do that, poch saying "I have no say in transfers" etc) and it's seemingly been going on for years. It's a shambles, really.
