Winter Transfer Missed Opportunities and Regrets

[Marc Overmars]

Just when I thought this club had changed and started to behave like a club that was gearing up to win something, we go and spoil it all with this complete act of self sabotage.

January was always going to involve scrapping around the barrel, the real crime was last summer and spending the budget on a load of defensive players.

This January has been noted for the unexpectedly large volume and number of opportunities, particularly for strikers. There was plenty in the barrel prior to the last couple of days when we eventually noticed it.

Given we gambled and lost our shirt , would it be insensitive to do a cheeky kit launch? We could use Saka, Martinelli and Havertz to model it!

though I still think we could have done something in January if we'd been planning to earlier - it was only the Jesus injury that prompted us we were already well short attacking-wise before he got injured, given we're not allowed to play Palace every week

Amazing in this day and age that archaic rule (going all the way back to the founding of the league, I think) is still on the books.

4-6-0.

Spalletti is gonna be so proud.

I think I'm done with this clown ownership.

We started the season with a 22 man squad, 3 short of what is considered to be the norm, 25 max (as we all know, why the hell would you have less?)

We already had Ben White & Tomiyasu out long term, then the other dominoes started to fall.

January should have been used properly and accordingly to bolster the squad.

Instead we've been left to self destruct once again.

Big club my arse.

The only home chant we should have till the end of the season is: "KROENKES OUT!"

I just said it on another thread. We call the Spuds serial bottlers but we bottle it every time around this time of the year. Pathetic. Arteta and the (wee Jimmy) Krankee's out!!

We literally won every game but one from this point on last season in the league.
