I tend to agree, the club's youth policy is actually so short-sighted and frankly quite embarrassing. We are squandering millions on dross players and do not even give our youth players a chance to see what they can do.
Sad Atajic is away on loan.
Would you like to see is spend £6M now or weep it until our champs league campaign when more players are available.
Yes it's boring but we will win the league and hopefully the cup. It's the summer I want us to spend in
VB Take 5
I have consistently been a supporter of Lenny's but I have to confess that my heart sank when I read the outputs from the presser
Let's see how the last week of the TW develops but I must admit, I agree with every word of the OP
Richie not quite! We missed the boat with Finnbogenson unfortunately By the time summer comes round we will have the same "frustrating" problem and then the qualifiers are played early again with no chance for a new player to bed in.
The summer is no use as we start playing in Europe in June...we need a settled team, we just scraped by poor teams like Elfsborg and FC Borat because we weren't very settled.
You all know how it will work, we will sign one player for £1million and then Pete won't spend a penny until he knows if we've qualified rather than being pro-active and ensuring we qualify...
Murney - hear what you say, mate, but Lenny specifically said he wanted players in now to bed them in this season. The summer is always difficult when there is a World Cup or Euro Championship - before you know it we're in the Champs League qualifiers (the first 2 home ties of which will not be at CP)
I'm just thinking there, we're gonna' be without some players aren't we for the first qualifying round?
Forster, Izzy, Sammy (could be gone anyway), Big Efe, and there's no reason why VVD can't make it to WC?
Yes the team's we'll be playing are dross, but potentially four out of our back five will be gone, the team needs settled.
Lenny is taking the pi$$ not playing Balde or the youth players however we are unbeaten in the league so you cannot blame him for being selfish and trying to build a legacy for himself
