Are You Worried.....

that we are not attracting top talents to add to the squad this season? apart from buying a reserve keeper and a barca reserves player we don`t seem to have done much. would pastore have signed for PSG if it was Man U that were after him? and the situation with Lukaku is not looking any better. Thots anyone?

I think we're doing it right. Remember Robinho? Madrid wanted the extra 5m and we refused. Similar thing happened with Neymar and Aguero last year, and now Pastore. Palermo have been really intelligent with their public auction of the player but Chelsea decided that they would not pay a cent more than 40m € so they lost out. And for all those saying it's just 2.5m € more, had Chelsea upped their offer, PSG would have trumped it so I think they did the intelligent thing. I'd prefer us getting a couple of wingers anyway.

OP you have it wrong. Its not about us failing to attract the player its about us no being able to or wanting to try and outbid the Arabs.

Exactly, if we try and outbid the Arabs there is only going to be one winner, plus it isn't advisory. It would soon get to the stage where £100m + is being bid for a player thus making a player more valuable than most Championship and a lot of PL clubs

Haha. what did red muppet say this time? i think I speak for pretty much all of ja 606 and probably all of mankind when I say he should go play with some traffic.

That`s what worries me. we do not seem to have much clout or financial muscle to compete in the transfer market.i know there are excellent players out there that can be bought on the cheap if our scouts do their job better but we seem to to have lost out on possible marquee signings that would have given us that extra edge

AVB........

I have yet to see us buy a player for more than 30m that has been any good for us!

Marquee signings are often not what they are cracked up to be.

Mr Chelsea..

It is more painful for him if he comes and plays with us
