Priorities..?

Pieters, Long, Wells, Gibson, Hart, Vydra, Lennon, Lowton - can you just imagine the weekly wage bill we are spunking on this band of hopeless second stringers?

Yep, That's what happens when your recruitment is focused on lower transfer fees and wages in relation to better quality player. We now have half the team either too old/incapable of delivering at this level and still costing millions in wages. They can't be trusted many of them to deliver in even cup games when they should be fresh and looking to prove a point. VVdra for example; why did we not rest Wood and give him a go? The must be he's just not good enough and therefore has no future! At some point soon we have a hell of a rebuilding job to do staring with finding a premier level right back. This is what happens when you scimp and scrap you waste money. If any of our midfielders that play regular get hurt long term what the hell and we going to do? Apparently there is no problem but the Cup proves otherwise by showing lack of quality and options. We therefore HAVE to exit the cups ASAP to save wear and tear on those who are playing.
