Summer Transfer Window 2019

[chippy1722]

I largely agree with your opinion on Bolasie. But no way was Bolasie ever more effective than Bernard, you are decidedly on your own on that one.

He would be better than Walcott but that’s still miles below Bernard.

not everton anymore i guess but Jagielka at the turf today apparently.

People complain that we haven’t pushed on in years and moan season in and season out about how aiming for seventh isn’t good enough and what’s the point of playing if we’re not in it to win trophies, then they turn round and say that players like Bolasie, Sandro and Martina are actually good enough for this club that should be trying to compete at the very top. They then go on to say that through his signings and the wages he’s got us stuck with, a man who put us in a financial situation where being owned by an actual billionaire doesn’t really count for much “actually did a pretty good job”.

I know we go on about Liverpool, Newcastle and United fans and everything but some elements of our fan base are absolutely mental.

United and Arsenal have been “poor” for a couple of years and they’re kicking up a fuss about their owners and direction.

We have been either mediocre or poor for 25 years and we didn’t do a tap about Kenwright we had fans actually clap him... why? To be all cool and that, go against the tide at the time.

We have some lunatics supporting us we really do.

I actually think this season season is gonna be harder to stay top 8 never mind bridge the gap to top 8.

All depends on investment that surely?

I haven’t seen one person say bolasie is good enough for us. I’ve seen a few say he wasn’t as bad as people make out and that he was unlucky to get an injury that pretty much finished him. I’ve also seen only 1 person suggest that Sandro isn’t as bad as people make out. There’s a massive difference between that and people saying they’re good enough for us - so your lengthy post is somewhat dramatised.

....no, they are only finished when somebody thinks they are so ITK they give a transfer rumour it’s own thread!!!

Can we start an Arnautavic thread.

I would actually cry buckets if we signed him.

I would like to give that more than one like.

...yep, seems to start well at clubs before coming a bit of a diva.

United have been kicking up a fuss about their owners for over decade. What good would you say it has done them, exactly?

It's about context I guess. Context including, more than anything, finances.

A very polite way of saying he’s a massive knob head

On and off yes, but trophies have always silenced them.... we haven’t won a tap in 25 years.

Do actually think that if everyone had booed him he would have hitched up his skirts and sold us to the mythical white knight who it seems was always waiting in the wings?
It’s like the RS imagining their pathetic whiny protests had anything to do with the removal of the USA duo , they where removed because the financial institutions were worried they would lose their money , and no other reason.
If you doubt me, go and ask the Blackpool fans how they’re getting on removing their repellent chairman and his hideous family.

Thought he had gone. That said, kinda agree with your wider point.

Can you explain this post in greater detail for me mate?

BBC say Arnautavic has put in a transfer request. Add one plus one and you get 2. He clearly wants a bigger club than the hammers probably one playing in Europe. Do I rate him? Only that he is better than the crap we have. No fear though he will be off somewhere else to make another fortune. We will be scrambling around second rate strikers anyway in our search for a proper striker. Maybe the Fulham fella might be an option. Another gold digger but aren't they all?
