We've done really well in the sense we've managed to get in some decent quality into the club a very short amount of time - I agree entirely - but it's the position that we put ourselves in, in the first place that has really made me angry.
It's rank bad management. There seems to have been no plan, no leadership from anyone, no real ambition. It hurts me greatly. And it hurts all the more when you look at who City and co have brought in. We're not even in a position where we can dream about winning the League, you'd have to be off your rocker to believe we have a chance - and that is sad, and the worst of it is that it doesn't have to be that way, it shouldn't be that way.
I'll get behind the team, as ever, get caught up in every minute of the season, as ever, but the fact that we have put ourselves in such a weak position at this point has upset me. Now was the time to push on, to move up, and we've gone backwards.
I agree Ricky, like i said, a number of these signings could have been done way back in July but unlike say in 2008 when Wenger stuck with Denilson, he and the club have atleast reacted and that itself hasn't been bad.
As much as i wanted a Hazard or M'Vila, who are super talents, i don't know how much of an instant impact they would have had at 20 and 21 respectively.
For now we have got in good players who are very experienced and leaders too. Let's see what impact they have.
