    Damned if we do and damned if we don't.
    It's fine to say " well that's what the prices are for players now, so we have to deal with it."
    That's fine but it adds fuel to the fire if that player doesn't hit the ground running.

    We can't just go nuts in terms of just stumping up any old cash so soon after promotion back to the prem, because it's liable to come back and bite us extremely hard on the arse.

    I prefer it like it is with maybe one or two add on's if we can, for sensible fees, whether right now or in January, depending on releasing a likewise amount of players.

    Well it seems that Rafa doesn't prefer it this way, and that concerns me!

    Rafa admits he is not happy with the transfers this summer but says he is determined to carry on.When he was interviewed on Sky Sports News the background was showing the River Thames,if this was a real window not a mock up it means Rafa is in London,talking to a player perhaps?

    Thing is we have had plenty of time to sort this out. Rafa will have tod them the players he didn't want/ who he did and those he wanted to buy, but as usual those supposedly running the club aren't on the same page. Pathetic.
