I think your jumping to conclusions with people being "jealous" of west ham, but they have signed a couple of players already who would have been good signings for us ( wilshere and diop )
I mean, any team below us who goes and strengthens a lot is something to be worried about is it not?
it's the same as city signing no one and united below them going out and singing 5 first team players
Exactly, its this arrogance by our fans that we will coast to 7th/8th regardless of transfer business that will come back to bite us on the backside guaranteed.
West Ham have a very good manager and have made 2-3 good signings
Leicester have strengthened their weak back line and wont be much worse than what they were last season.
Saints have an actual PL manager now (who whilst seems to go off the boil always has a decent 2-3 seasons first) and again wont be as bad as last year.
Wolves are potential dark horses and have a good style and system of how they play.
And thats just below us, the top 6 (who everyone wants us to try bridge the gap with) will only continue to push away from us if we dont strengthen adequately.
