We didn't go and buy someone for the sake of it, and let Ches do his stuff. That's worked out quite nicely.
Like I've said in countless other threads. AW gets some things wrong, but he does get some things right too. The business of running a top footbal club is far more difficult in current times due to the inequality in the market. We've got to push on, no doubt, and we've fucked up big time, but we're clawing our way back, and I'm relatively happy with the balance of the team for the forst time in ages.
Hopefully we'll add to that over coming weeks...that said, Wilshire, and our fullbacks returning will be massive for us.
