It may well be we can secure Poch's 2nd/3rd choice (or knowing us 4th/5th) now but Poch would rather wait until Summer when he can work with them instead of buying them and dumping a "save our season" expectation on them which is what we all would.I think the notion that Poch is blocking any and all players is bollocks. I completely understand him putting the block on those players he hasn’t identified as wanting and needing. But I don’t believe that he would put the block on players that he has identified as his ‘top targets’ if the club goes all out to get what he wants.
Be careful what you N'wish for
I worry. If you really believe too ending it with academy graduates, to give them. Chance, I am speechless.
Worked with and for Argentinians for a few years a lot of them a very proud stubborn people once they have their mind set it is extremely difficult to change it especially when it comes to working relationships , pretty direct and loyal tbh.Right now Poch is the problem. And I have shared that privately before it became public on hear. Guy is friggin stubborn. Alright, our budget is not the best, but slightly over 100m. Though not a set budget.

Dembele hole = Foyth filling it unless its a HG player.JJ's info makes me raise an eyebrow.
Surely he'd at lease want to replace Dembele and the hole that he's left in the squad.
Seems strange to lose a squad place at such an injury ravaged time?
Been on the sauce?Herc - not trying to ask ITK questions, but what does that sentence mean? Auto-correct on the phone mess it up?
Are you saying Poch just wants to give the academy guys the spots, which for a top 4 team is rather ridiculous if you can bring in better names through transfer?

To be fair to Poch when he is flexible / not stubborn he gets Janssen instead of Batshuayi or Fazio instead of Musacchio and I’m sure Njie and GKN were cheap substitutes for other targets he had.Right now Poch is the problem.

Well, if he's going to turn to academy graduates then fine. But evidence says otherwise. Poch may be being stubborn, yes. But that's likely because he's identified players he wants and as per usual, the club is offering up cheap alternatives instead. A ton of other ITK from you and others point to Poch not wanting those cheap alternatives anymore and wants players he wants. It is time Levy finally works up the courage to do that and back a manager. Poch has deserved that and much more.Right now Poch is the problem.

Identifying players that we have ZERO chance of getting. Come in AVB!Well, if he's going to turn to academy graduates then fine. But evidence says otherwise. Poch may be being stubborn, yes.

Herc has stated that Janssen purchase was all Poch.To be fair to Poch when he is flexible / not stubborn he gets Janssen instead of Batshuayi or Fazio instead of Musacchio and I’m sure Njie and GKN were cheap substitutes for other targets he had.
