Again this from the same agent… we’re in a peculiar position whereby we’re now expectant to be challenging for CL football every year, the players and coaches are expectant of it too, but the financial position of the club doesn’t even remotely come close to levelling with those ambitions, so each purchase HAS to work. There’s zero room for error.

 

Smaller clubs can take more chances, generally because their ambition and expectation levels are significantly different, and more in line with their financials.

There is nothing as risky as not being willing to take any risks.

Aye, without a striker we probably are.

 

You're talking absolute shite mate. Botman, Hall, Livra, Bruno, Jo, Tonali is at a worst case scenario a top 7 team with an inevitable striker if Isak goes. Get a fucking grip man.

I don’t know why anyone would consider it particularly implausible that we have a poster here who “knows an agent.” There are plenty of agents out there. Obviously doesn’t mean that everything they say is gospel, but it’s fun to speculate and that’s what this forum is for.

My best mate is the agent for one of our first team players. I would not say who out of respect for both, but I have met the player a few times and get a lot of insight - none of which I would share on here out of respect from where it came from. We don't all need to be ITK twatters. 

 

Love to know (which I don't) what the squad and Howe are thinking about this window, so far.

Absolutely no need.


Optimistic Nut has been on the sauce and this board has tipped him over the edge :lol: 

 

Can see how it has, mind. Been awful on here for a while. Some of it is understandable. But plenty of entitled wankers posting shite and all.

I genuinely didn’t know what he was meant by fans being our own worst enemy. Was a genuine question.

Nah, we need a bit of perspective like. Ultimately we're the 5th best team in the league and we're kicking off because the best striker in the league wants to go somewhere else and we're finding it hard to sign top 4 players on our budget.

You've literally just said we're bottom half. 

Wasn't even that reasonable it was 'bottom half at best'. Wonder what the worst case scenario is. Armageddon!?

This is true, however we should have been planning for this window as soon as the last one shut, it all seems haphazard just now

He's right though. You talk a load of negative shite. 

Negative? We don't have a striker atm of PL quality (ruling Isak out).  With the added CL games I don't think bottom half is unrealistic right now.

 

We'll see come September, but things aren't exactly looking great, are they?
