andycap Posted August 30, 2024 Share Posted August 30, 2024 Should be bringing in loans for the three positions either loan to buy or just the bog standard loan. I feel the fans would understand if that's what we did with us not getting our main targets. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghp Posted August 30, 2024 Share Posted August 30, 2024 People can blame whoever they want but the root cause of this is PSR or FFP or whatever it’s called. The rules that were forced through to stunt our growth are working perfectly but we will overcome these, it will just take longer than first thought. It will make it all the sweeter when we succeed despite everything they’ve tried to stop us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only way to overcome them is to build a massive fucking stadium and spend 10 years buying the top teenage talent around the world and selling them for massive profits.

midds Posted August 30, 2024 Share Posted August 30, 2024 All this has done is to heap more pressure and scrutiny on Howe and the players. The failure to strengthen looks to have been of our own volition, we made the Guehi bids so the money was there but we elected to not spend it. It's a conscious decision, not limited by PSR, this is our decision to not invest when we could have. And now the teams we're trying to overhaul have strengthened and the pack has moved on while we've chosen to stand still. It's now Howe who needs to pull a rabbit out of the bag and catch the teams we were already behind despite them improving. Pressure is well and truly on and it's hard to say it's not self inflicted Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcmk Posted August 30, 2024 Share Posted August 30, 2024 Disappointed with the window but still optimistic of the trajectory. Hoping that lessons will be learnt from this fiasco. Don't buy into this Howes being stubborness with only wanting players with Premier League experience... considering his first transfer window we were all over Hugo Etikeke, signed Bruno G and desperate for Diego Carlos and Sven Botman. Not to mention Tonali and Isak. Just lazy, and can only think people bring it up because they want to scapegoat someone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The message is out now that we aren't going to just sign anyone. We are not going to pay above and beyond what a player is worth. Can view this window as consolidation. And be more astute in next couple of windows. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbandit Posted August 30, 2024 Share Posted August 30, 2024 That message is not that strong when we went above and beyond in making offers for Guehi that no other club would have come close to matching. Equally, we got rinsed in our Minteh and Anderson dealings. We don’t look like strong negotiators in all honesty from the outside looking in but who knows Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
