Yup, this is the most damning thing. We looked unfit. That's not on recruitment.
Sadly, new players in or not, we're all set for a traditional Moyes slow start. His problem, however, is there's no Bill to hold on to him at all costs in his own self-interest. We now know that our much-vaunted new owners might not actually be all that competent. But we also know they are ruthless. Well, they are when it comes to Roma. But if we're only the back-up plan then perhaps Davey will survive a slow start after all...
Let's face it, these Friedkins are still an enigma. Each passing day chips away at whatever hope we had that they'd be transformational.
