The new owners did not spend 100 million. They have spent about half that at most. It's true to say that there is at least two years of bad business to be sorted out before moving forward. This transfer window should finish that off ( taking them 4 windows) and now it's all FSG signings. They have been clear from the off that they want players coming though and making marquee signings each season. This is the most important transfer window in about 3 years now, downing, Henderson, Carroll and Adam have made the squad stronger, along now with sterling, suso, Cody, coming in. It's time for some high quality signings. Maybe two this window

They 'spent' over £100m no matter how you want to disguise the fact. If I sold my TV for £100 and bought a new one for £600, I still spent £600!! In fact, I spent £600 PLUS the loss made on my previous purchase as I still only have 1 TV, but how far back do you want to go to try and paper over the mistakes in order to some way try and justify p!ss poor business decisions?

Let's not try and hide the humungous management errors - let's just accept that we fvcked up big time and that it needs to be put right.

Even now, I say we still need another £100mill (spent wisely) to improve the team enough to take us forward, forward meaning qualifying for the champions league every year and challenging at the top.

Either that, or players already at the club now improve significantly, and we sign the realistic players mentioned.

I gave those players because they are realistic, I think they're likely to happen. Regardless of what we want or think.

Out of arguably all of those players mentioned, Defoe, Moses, Zaha, Christian Rodriguez, Muniain, Lugano and Godin. With a push, I'd take one, maybe two.

Muniain is a gamble, a good player yes, but he is shining in a team where everyone plays for one another. Would he want to leave Basque? Atletico Bilbao players are different beasts, They are loyal to the club. They don't sign many players, they promote and coach from within.

Zaha would also be the other, even that is a risk. Arguably bigger. He'd come under the same pressure as the other players we've bought under the strategy to buy young British, as a result, he would be hit with the same stick.

Christian Rodriguez is likely to happen, simply because he is a left winger, Uruguayan and friends with Luis Suarez. It'll be one of those "for the sake of it"

if we go british then fletcher form wolves, jarvis and given please

otherwise lets keep it foreign

Given isn't British, he's Irish.
