I used to laugh my head off at the idea of propaganda but now it's not quite so funny any more.Ahhh, the wheels are in motion already.
We've had the same shit relayed to us, as usual. The initial 'Lessons Have Been Learnt™, we've got our targets and we'll get them in for preseason' stuff in May/June.
Then 'We're really trying to get them in but deals are proving difficult, they'll be in by the first game' followed by some classic clubs/ agents messing us around talk. We miss out on some crucial points but that's ok because theres 15/14/13/12/11 etc. days left of the window and that doesn't make a difference in the grand scheme of things at the end of the season, somehow.
[Insert random late signing from Ligue One] is a great signing and Poch is totally on board with this signing - until next summer and he, or next [insert manager with a philosophy], tries to get rid.
'We know we're not as strong as we'd hoped in some key areas but don't worry Lessons Have Been Learnt™ - 6 years in a row now - and targets have been identified and deals are being worked on already for January and next summer. But don't worry drawing against Stoke is fine because we lost to them last year, 1 point up already. Great success!!
