Super Super Quality Transfer Speculation & Shit

[Power n Glory]

I disagree because we needed numbers in August. Out of £60m , you could buy 2 or 3 star players but we needed the 6 or 7 that we got otherwise we'd have been struggling to put a side out when the injuries hit. I think now's the time - when the squad is filled with decent '3rd place' players that you should aim to go after the few top players rather than 5 decent ones. There's no mystery to this transfer window - we know the score; if Van Persie leaves we'll probably get another 2 players in - standard £10-12m players like Gervinho. If Van Persie doesn't leave, we might get just one of those £10-12m.

We didn't need 6 or 7 players in August. Park, Yossi and Ox were hardly used all season, Jenkinson was too green to be considered as real cover for Sagna and we also bought Campebell; another kid that has to go on loan before he can play for us. We might as well have held back a few of our players from going out on loan and spent on real quality. Our squad is big enough to cope with cover, we just lack star power.

The players you've named hardly cost much so they haven't been eating up much of the £60m. I think we can agree oxlade was worth getting in any case. We needed numbers in august. We were struggling to name a side at old Trafford. Now there seem to be good numbers, we should be more picky.

It's still money wasted. The extra £5m we wasted on players that hardly featured could have been used to go beyond the £10m bracket and pay around £15m for a player with end product and someone who doesn't have to fly off to the ACON in January. United paid £15m for Young. I'm not saying he was an option, just saying that's the difference between £10m and £15m.

Also, the wages. Park is supposed to be on £40k a week. That's a waste of money. Such a waste that we had to bring in Henry on loan for cover in January. And let's not forget that Gazidis did say Wenger has another £30m available to spend in January if he wants it. Part of that money has probably been used to buy Podolski.

Some of you guys are fucking crazy. On and on and on but always ignoring where the money has actually gone.

Wengers pockets?

Pay packet dude, salary. Different thing entirely. If his bosses don't want him they don't pay him. Who cashed out and took all the money with them?
