So tranfer season is in full swing and its the usual farcical fairground ride as is normal.....
Since January we seem to have altered our policy, deciding we are going to spend serious money on up & coming talent. Carroll for 35 mill & Henderson for 16-20 mill our initial examples.
These transfers have ultimately set a president for this club, is anyone else wondering if blowing around 50 million on 2 players who only have 3 seasons Premiership experience was a good idea? Not only that but have we made ourselves look complete mugs paying crazy money for players that arent worth it?
Then there is the Clichy deal, I thought we were going to tie this one up only for Man City to jump in on us, fair enough I suspect City offered him silly wages. But why would any player want to go to Man City over us? Really has football really gone that mad?
Then this morning I see we are trying to hijack City bid for some player from Montenegro who Ive never heard of, I guess in a vain attempt to stitch them up.... but its probably made fuck all difference thus making us look desperate once again..... Same could be said with the Phil Jones thing....
I just sit here wondering are we starting to look like we are trying to play with the big boys but when we go home for tea they are ripping the piss out of us.....
All in all, we need to make sure we get CL next season or we are fucked as far as I can see.....
