What i mean is we have a 25 man squad come september 1st. Yet last season that 25 man squad was running essentially up to 9 players short under martinez. So when things were going badly, wouldn't it have been nice that some of those 9 could not only come in but compete for places? Instead we got Mcgeady, Hibbert, Gibson, Piennar, eventually Niasse, Kone, who could come in and contribute very little off the top of my head. Just nice having options as the seasons progresses, we know we will have a first 11 but even if some of the 25 were young lads, least have them in a position where they could be given a chance rather than pay some of these clowns 50 grand a week to basically do nothing.There's no point, especially without European football, but it's not gonna be easy to find takers for them that they'll agree to.
Just imagine how much money we paid out last season for them, and what did they do?
