We let Sergio go because he couldn't stay fit and was on huge wages. And guess what he's injured again for another 3 months.If we don't value Kane at £150m and don't value Ronaldo at £30m then what are we doing?
Letting Sergio go is now looking really stupid, he didn't even want to be at Barcelona.
We are out , looks like he is going to the ragsWow,went to work at 1130 and we were spotting planes from Tenerife, had no news on at all, can someone brief me up there is so many pages
Few twats on here who appear to share the same opinion as him, it is truly unfathomable!Spoilt for expecting our club to buy a striker when we’ve known for a year that our only striker would be leaving???? You’re a fucking clown and seem pleased with failed this window
enjoy this season from your armchair
oh boy, i remember the abuse i got for saying that Dzeko is better and that signing makes no sense :DWhat's big Wilf Bony up to?
Wasn’t Brian Marwood our DoF and transfer negotiator before Txiki? I don’t think CEOs really go near them do they?Not for the first time.
Or the second.
People can say what they want about Gary Cooke but he knew his way around a transfer negotiation: Agree a budget, Identify targets within the budget, Sign targets. Done.
Would these guys have signed David Silva for 24m? Sergio for 38m? Yaya for 24m? Tevez for free? No I don’t think they would. They would have offered 15m for D Silva and “walked away”.
This summer we spent 100m on a player who may well become a great but is currently unproven above Championship level and only got him because he had a release clause.
Whigh was the greater priority? A striker or yet another midfielder for a team that already has Bernardo, Foden,Fernandinho,KDB, Jesus, Sterling, Torres,Mahrez?
The minute we spent 100m on Jack the price of ANY striker we go for increased by 50m. You get your priority signing done first and then go back with the release clause for Jack if you decide you still want him.
It is transfer 101.
The richest club in the world cannot afford a striker in the most depressed transfer market for years. Shameful.
We may get lucky with injuries and get away with it this year but we would need extraordinary luck in order to win the league again.
Chelsea have strengthened quietly and efficiently.
Liverpool wont be as unlucky with injuries again.
United have their best squad in a decade.
City have further strengthened their rivals by not strengthening themselves.
Amateurish and arrogant in equal measure.
Unproven above championship level?Not for the first time.
