Relative to some clubs we may be 'poor'. But that hasn't stopped a better performance in the transfer market in recent seasons compared to this one. Whyhas this summer thus far been a washout? We get no explanations, just a whispering campaign against the manager that there is significant money there that isn't being spent. Which begs the question: if he was prepared to spend it in previous years and break transfer records, why isn't he doing it this summer if it's there?
It stinks. We've been taken for mugs and now we're supposed to be getting excited at the arrival of loan deals for players other Premiership clubs reject or wouldn't touch with a shitty stick.
Again I say it - I'm ashamed of this club.
Well mate i think the signings we are seeing now are akin to the signings of previous seasons. The difference this season is that moyes was adamant he wanted better, no more championship gems or promising youths that lost their way, the real deal. I cant fault that he has worked his ass off for the club with very little in the way of money and not a great side when he took over, hes proven he can do the business with less money why shouldnt he be entitled to spend a bit bigger? None of this £11mil record signings business, he wants to get the big names in.
Now we all know this hasnt happened and its obvious that money is the issue, maybe its a lack of money all round or just that moyes hasnt been up for blowing the kitty on one big name. Well good, say we have £25 mil to spend, you want him to throw £20mil at moutinhio and get an Alan smith an some loans? What happens then if Moutinhio cant cut it in the prem, or if he gets injured, or gets involved in some serious whoring with shandy andy? Moyes would look a right **** then and i dont blame him for not throwing endless amounts of money cos sporting just keep pulling figures out of their ass.
A lot of people seem to have fallen in love with Moutinhio (cal
) well hes one man and he cant do it by himself, so [Poor language removed] it was a nice idea and maybe we've unsettled him enough to get a decent price out of sporting in January, until then plan B is not looking too shabby...
I know some people are prob thinking would moyes not have a back up just in case he couldnt get the big names he was after? Well some of these boys that we are suddenly linked with are looking very much like Moyes signings of previous years and they arent exactly feeling like last minute panic buys. Maybe, just maybe, that crafty scottish [Poor language removed] has been playing games with the media? Why alert all and sundry to free buys and cheap loans when you can have the world laugh as tiny everton struggle in a big transfer market?
I know its unlikely but if BK knew about this id let him off with his smug little smile and his watch this space. I'm prob bein naive but in Moyes I trust...
Its gonna have to be a hell of a weekend for 6 internationals!
