I think he's bang on with what he says, because I want that same ambition, but what you said is exactly what went through my head too. We could have possibly done what city did but it would still have taken patience.
Then on the flip of the coin, lukaku needs to see realism too. We were trying to but witsel, Carvalho, mata, gabbidiani, brahimi, koulibaly etc if reports are led to be believed but we're not quite there yet in terms of attracting these players.
The game has also changed to stop doing what city did as well, but I have no issue with his comments, I was fairly disappointed with our summer dealings, I thought we had a lot more to do. But we can use this summer to put it right and get in some big names using Europe as a pull as well, but we need to show ambition, a name like rooney would show that tbf.
But if we sell lukaku now ( which we wil ) how the hell can we convince top stars to we want to aim high when we can't keep are current ones?
