They didn't want to come here, they wanted to go somewhere better.
Wee've een this fucking movie before. For all the talk of excellence at all levels and our brilliant data and everything else, our squad isn't adequate, and we are constantly behind when dealing with everything. Look at our cb situation. In the summer of 2027 as it stands we will have a 21 year old who missed a year of development due to a bad injury. That's it. That's the future planning for losing the best centreback ive ever seen.
This club always frames things like they are so smart for not impetuously making stop gap solutions. How about you don't fucking need a stop gap solution in the first place. We need a cb for depth, we need a CB for now, and we need multiple CBS for the future.
Can't do good business in January. That is hard, you're right. So don't fucking do it then you cunts. Or don't let the good centreback we had go.
Do we want our future developing cb playing alongside the best to ever do it? Nah, let's fucking wobble our way there and then buy 3 CBS in one window, because it's easy to find three players at the same time but it's hard to replace one in a fucking year.
