I'm cracking one out at our transfer kitty.
“I’ve got plenty of money, don’t worry. It’s not about the finances,” said Martinez, who can use Kevin Mirallas through the middle if necessary with the Belgium attacker having played there while at Olympiakos.
“We are in a great position. Every window you need to finish with the squad stronger than when it opened and that is what we are driving towards.
“We have got money because we managed to get £40m for three players. But what is important is not spending money for the sake of it, but with a clear, long-term strategy.
“For me that is very important. I need to keep the August window in consideration as well.
“January is a really difficult window. You are not going to get a player who is performing well for his club, because they are not going to sell him now.
“It is a hard window because you need to identify players who can fit into your squad who are not fitting into other squads. That doesn’t go hand-in-hand with having a lot of money to spend.
“It is different in August. I would never forgive myself for spending money cheaply now and miss spending that money in August when I know I could really invest it well.”
