I'm starting to feel that we aim for the perfect deal too much. Think we're missing out on some decent buys as we wait for the price to drop, the player to get unsettled and desire a move, the club to be in a position willing to accept bids, etc. I still respect Pards' judgment as it got us to where we are now. However in times like this when you're building to consolidate a thin squad for more games, we'd have to accept a no-frills approach to beef up our ranks imo.
