Hi pal.
We aren't desperate to the point we should be panic buying.

Results have already improved under Carlo.

Iwobi is back. Gomes is soon.

We are out of all the cups.

We aren't going down.

We aren't going to finish in the top 4.

We are perilously close to the 105m losses over a three year cycle (FFP).

If the value of a player is horrifically exaggerated in the January window, as nearly everyone in football suggests it is, do you think it makes good financial or football sense to go out and splurge money when we can wait?

Take a minute to ponder properly before you answer x
Totally agree with this, but the reason prices are generally seen to be inflated in January is because many of the buying clubs are desperate. No team deliberately goes into the season thinking they’ll have to do business in January, it would make no sense. That’s where the myth of it not being a good time to buy comes from. So a lot of teams who buy players are doing it because of injuries/relegation fears etc so they can be taken advantage of. If you don’t fall into those categories, you can still do decent business.
 

His refusal to deal in January just means he has to absolutely nail the summer. He did pretty poor this summer for the most part. Which means he's done well in one of 4 windows.

I don’t think he refused to deal tbh, as Ancelotti said himself at the presser, they both felt that there wasn’t a good enough opportunity available which is both heartening in that they weren’t going to just spend for spending sake and disheartening in that no one at the club will be doing dances around USMFF that weren’t able to bring fresh blood in
