Some seem to forget that we have no ability to spend money due to past misdemeanors. Lookman would have been an option but no money. No alternative but to go for scraps and hope. At least Kean has been kicked off the wage bill.
 

Would strongly disagree he’s a quality footballer and game changer. We employ people to get the best out of the quality we have, they have to do it. Equally we employ people to make apt decisions - they made one on Jamo a year ago, no point saying whoops now - let’s start again! It’s that compound that creates the problems financially and indicative of the red flags I mention.
He doesn't fit in with anyone in our squad. He's a passing player. We have no other passing players. He's 30 and barely able to play multiple weeks in a row. We're multiple years from competing for Europe regularly. It's just the wrong player at the wrong time.

The problem, for me, which has been a problem since moyes left is the lack of culture. We got ahold of some money and got rid of our whole identity and started spending without a clear plan which buying fourteen #10s showed
 
Not for the money no, but as soon as Ancelotti left we were always going to be in the last day market. A year of the club planning with Ancelotti went out the window and we started again with Benitez. Ancelotti might have been looking at an Isco type to play in a diamond or a third midfielder, maybe a right back who can play as an attacking full back in a 5. Benitez comes in and wants two wingers and might be happy with Holgate as a utility right back as he’s not playing flying full backs. Completely different.
Did we play flying fullbacks last year???
 
However long austerity is forced on us, that is only the symptom and not the cause.

The same people at the wheel will engineer the same problems over again.

At least if Brands, Denise or someone came out when this is over and said lessons have been learned, however clichéd, it would be something.

I don't expect them to, it would be tantamount to an admission of failure, but that level of honesty is what we need.
