Exactly they’re planning for the future and sensible rather than blowing all our allowance in the first few windows. You don’t get to be worth hundreds of billions by being like a kid in a sweet shop when running your business. We’ve been told time and time again by howe he won’t be spending crazy money immediately and that wasn’t just lip service.

I genuinely see that with ektite’s highlights reel - everybody says he’sa raw talent etc but I see a load of clumsy goals in a league with a lot more space than you get in the premier league. doesn’t mean he won’t be good though - if we buy him then I’ll trust the process we will have gone through to decide he’s the right fit.

Any time there’s a South American competition on - we’ll have no squad left if we kept buying Brazilians

We can’t compete with Ac Milan, oh wait…

Same, 11 goals in 18 games under howe (strategically removing spurs and city games) was great for our defence and dubs - burn for me lead the line as soon as he came in (in tripps absence) and everyone looked better for it. i actually was confident by the end of the season that we could hold on to 1 - 0 leads.

Whose that?

Think you have to be born within the sound of a job centre to be a mackem don’t you?

Fair enough, putting him down was the wrong wording from me. I’m just delighted we’re getting 2 first choice level players in positions now and finally de-ashleying the team.

And you know this how?

No, I just didn’t like the statement that he was only signed because we couldn’t get botman. Nobody knows why he was signed - all we know is he was signed, he came and did what was needed.

Yeah but it’s forest - they practically have no squad, no real money to throw around and this is the best they could get I reckon.

Harsh - first wood now people are turning on burn, these players came in and kept us up easily - putting in amazing performances for us, just because we’re signing better players now - don’t go putting burn down. Both burn and botman will be our best two left footed cb’s and its good to have 2 in every position, we now have it with keeper and will with this so that’s how I choose to see these 2 signings.

ASM could have son in front of him and still wouldn’t pass to the fucker.

The forward from Germany that forest have signed looks a decent gamble for them. £17m and he has 20 goals in 41 games or something like that. Forest signing

Very good post and good points

Wow - some peoples expectations are mental ffs

Everyone has been saying this year it’s different, “ffp now has teeth” was one quote, no coincidence it was brought it after our takeover so if we ignore it we will get punished.

I was afraid people would expect half a dozen players every window after January.

Not just wont but can’t yet they still won’t listen.

I can’t see us getting 6 in this window

I believe Newcastle said they will spend £200m in the first year just this morning and we’ve already spent £115m (taking £10m for pope) so roughly (very) about £85m left. Say Hugo and botman went through that’s not a lot left

Just one deal like this every window will eventually turn the tide so we start to get more yes’s

Yeah that would be nice

Sorry - I thought you were disagreeing, my bad.

Ffp is very real this year, people need to stop thinking “we’re the richest club in the world etc” and we need a cb, rw and hopefully cm still
