Just reading a few different people's opinions about ambition and we are kind of back to that early-Moshiri were people were moaning about ambition, mentality etc.

Several years later there was hindsight saying they wished somebody (and Moyes was mentioned) had been more frugal and sensible in our growth.

So, where are we at ? Are we looking for todays Koeman or Silva again ?

To quote Lampard it's all "relative" to the situation.

Under Moshiri we instantly spent £300mill+ with no plan and fired managers due to wanting to be competitive with the top 5 when we looked mid table. We overspent to create a mid table side.

The funny thing is now... rightly or wrongly we have a plan due to the circumstances. We have a manager with a style (lets not argue over how good it is) working with a DoF with restrictions. It's the only reason why we're treading water without sinking.

If we're talking next steps...to me the latter is the best way of moving forward. You have a manager and DoF working together within a budget that you increase when needed based on progression.

But no one knows that these will do.
