Winter Transfer Speculation

:yawn:

The idea a fan has to have a coaching badge and 20 years experience managing a top club before he can comment is like the justification used by politicians when taking the opposite position to their constituents or avoiding consultation and bypassing representation. The public is too ignorant to understand or even have an opinion. All bullshit of course. Because you can still measure a decision against the outcome, you don't need a doctorate to know when an elitist smartarse has fucked up or serviced his own agenda at the expense of everyone else. Wenger's like that. Don't question him, how many substitutions have you made, over how many years, etc, etc. To which the reply is - how many titles have you won in the last decade in return for the highest ticket prices in the world? Of course a football club is not a democracy (then again nor is our democracy), but the dimmest wit can twig Wenger has significantly under-delivered. No badge, no experience required. Then it becomes a matter of degrees, comments on substitutions, transfer policy, tactics. Even a monkey can spot a pattern. An educated fan with decades of experience watching the managers and players that have come through this club, they can tell when something is on the up and when something is fucked up.

Also nothing like what I said.

Addendum: We have the 4th biggest budget, we've always finished in the top 4. How has he under-delivered? When the money became available to buy a higher level of player he did so and we immediately started winning trophies again. Whether he can push on and win us the PL remains to be seen but while we're in the mix and with some of the players we've got I'll believe we have a good chance and judge him at the end of the season.

So what's the requirement to move on from being an Internet twat to something more worthy?

Got locked in a pyramid apparently. :coffee:



Nah, one of his Basle teammates has all but confirmed the moved

Probably just waiting for paperwork from the home office before we can confirm the move. There's probably a backlog of applications since the Christmas break.

Just waiting for Federer to sign off on it.
