As a club maligned for years for waiting until the end of a window to do business, it's surprising that anyone can think we won't do any business at the end of a window. If there's a "same old story"...it's that we're going to wait until the end of a window to do our final bits of business.

That old chestnut.

Why do you have to do this in every thread? 95% of your posts are about levy. Just go to the levy thread and stop steering every thread off topic. Cue dislike or sarcastic funny posts from Hotmail.com username

Edit - there we go. Colour me shocked
For the record I rated this funny because of how accurate it turned out to be lol Agree with you, the Levy talk is absolutely boring

Even by todays standards thats a sizeable investment, can see why we'd be put off, its a huge step up to the Premier League with zero guarantees.

Our transfer strategy seems to largely consist of identifying a player about 4 weeks too late, or failing to move on the players we have identified, with this seemingly being another example.

Embarrassing.

It was a tenuous Daily Mail link. We can't sign every player we're linked with.

Nobody is saying we should.

I certainly don't know enough about this guy to know if he's the right answer and the price seems to be high.

But we're now 10 days and 2 games beyond selling Kane, something which Levy is on record as saying he knew was going to happen.

Yet our plan at the moment seems to be to wildly cast about for any strikers that may or may not be available.

I.e. there was clearly no plan at all.

Plus I wanted a player called Ernest.

Admit that this is the sole reason for your anger.

I'm not quite sure how you can say there's no plan when every one (including Ange) is saying we need to trim the squad first before incomings.

We've probably lined up a few deals to be able to pull the trigger if we get the players out that we need to get out. But we can't just keep on signing players with all the deadwood mulling around.

I assume we inquired about both Gift and Ernest and thought the price is too high for unproven talents (which I agree with), but those inquiries were escalated by dubious reporters on Twitter and as people do, they got overly attached to both.
