Recruitment has been spot on for the last couple of years and if the club feel like keeping the powder dry then I’ll back that.

The question is how enticing is that dangling carrot of a PL title at the moment? As it stands our squad is wafer thin and we’re relying on a lot of luck to keep us ticking over.
I just think it’s too much of a gamble to bring in players that we have no use for long term in the hope that they can win us this current title, when nothing will guarantee that…we aren’t favourites…Manchester City are and we are 18 games in not 25…we aren’t in the mid way point yet to put our current league position down to anything other than an anomaly caused by other teams showing indifferent form.

As it is we haven’t secured 4th yet. But neither should we be panic buying to get that over the line
