I'd forgotten how bad transfer windows are for us. We definitely dont go all out to improve the playing staff
Nope, we don't, usually we're just trying to plug the gaping hole left by the departure of our best player(s).
Our inactivity is all the more mystifying when you read comments such as these
There will be business opportunities like never before," ex-Liverpool and Tottenham director of football Damien Comolli told BBC Sport."With the new £3bn TV rights deal starting in July, Premier League clubs have a clear vision of their income for the next three years and know they've got a big ability to spend a lot of money."In addition, the rest of Europe is struggling financially. Teams in France, Spain, Portugal, Belgium, the Netherlands and Italy are all looking at the Premier League and saying, 'You can have any of my players'.
"I've never seen a seller's market as it is now - you've got sides in Europe who are ready to write off their seasons and clear their wage bills. They are literally saying, 'everybody is for sale"
There will be hell to play if this moping around is all because we're trying to sort Theo out and it ends up with him not signing.
