People laughed at Juve paying 'over the odds' for Dybala. Who's laughing now? Getting no one or paying mega insane fees for a kid is what happens when you are reactive rather than proactive.
Yeah that guy was Martial whom we could have gotten for 20 million euros in July instead of 80 because he signed a new contract a few weeks ago.
I tottaly agree that if we couldn't get established world class strikers then going for top potential that can also contribute now is a smart move.
If we submitted an opening bid of 30 mil for Icardi eariler I'm pretty sure inter would atleast have thought really hard about it. It's not overpaying when the demand is so high and supply is so low. Better than paying what man u have to now for Martial.
Seeing as we didn't address any problems this summer we're likely going to need a several signings next year now. ST, DM, RW and maybe LB. We'll have the money to make 4 top signings, but will we have the ambition??
Sturridge, Fekir, Rabiot and Rodriguez. Reckon we could get all of them for around £100 mil.
I pray to god we buy the players we need next summer..
"next summer" hahaha
Yeah it's really worrying the amount of potential players we might need to replace next summer, while also needing to add players on top of that. Don't think we will need a United style influx but we'll definitely be in for a shock with the amount of players we will need to bring in.how many would like to join us without CL football?
one year from now we will need a whole bunch of players MORE
Walcott/Wilshere might leave to strong more english clubs, The Ox needs to be established by then or would want to get consistent playing time
Arteta, Flamini, Rosicky (even Per) may have fallen due to age, contracts are up, they will have even more wear and tear on them
a season without a title and Kos might be seeking greener pastures and have the giants looking to him...
If Ramsey gets a stellar season they will be poking at him hard to...
we can't afford to not spend in the next couple of hours
the young talents won't get bloodied enough this season to be viewed as adequate backup next season if noone has got a standout breakthrough (Zelalem and Gnabry?)
The day Jack leaves for "ambition" after we have supported him after all the injuries is the day I am done with this club unless we get a Sugar Daddy owner.
His not that special i wouldnt mind the fee we would get for him being english would be well worth itI wouldn't blame him...
i cant even start worrying about thinking about the january window until around Thanksgiving (sorry, end of November for those of you not in the 'States)
we definitely needed a DM or a Vieira/Yaya type midfielder
Coq, Arteta and Flamini cant win us titles...
Anyone else surprised Reus didn't move? I mean I feel like it's been on the cards for ages and I thought this summer was the one as he won't be playing CL. Is he still injured or what?
