We need the players bedding in right from the start of preseason training.
Completely agree.

I'm not saying we should wait until 31st August when the "WINDOW SLAMS SHUT" (fucking hate football terminology, especially Sky). It's clear we need massive changes.

Just saying, until it's concrete, we shouldn't be hanging anybody for things that haven't yet been confirmed. Player IN's or OUT's.

By all means bemoan the carnage of last season, and debate what we MUST put in place before next year. Discuss the relative merits of transfer dealings, rumour or not. But to blame the manager and club for things that haven't actually happened, and are pure media speculation is a bit harsh IMO.
