He is, and I’m entitled to disagree with it. The passive aggression does him no favours.He's entitled to his opinion - i personally like to be positive but nearly signing players is not going to placate all the fans.
Beating the club for the nearly signings is mad. Every club has examples of missing out on high profile players for a variety of reasons. Far more upsetting would be if we’d not signed Lo Celso, Ndombele, if we don’t get any reinforcement in now. I’m personally very happy with how the signings of Lucas, Son, Dele, Toby, Vertonghen, Sanchez, Lloris, Dembele etc turned out.
I’ll happily criticise Levy to the hilt for failing to refresh this squad in time to sustain our upward trajectory, but missing out on the top percentile of players, no. Those are the hardest players to sign, for whom we have the most competition, and have to spend the most money.
