Couldn't have put it better myself... watch us spunk 50m on that kid from Leicester... then watch him do fuck all and we are left with another dud we can't get shot of.

Think of Normandy , you will feel betterOf course my bad
Levy you bald cunt, fuk off from our dickhed, I'm so angry man I'm gonna abuse my fellow fans on forums and act like a complete man child just so I don't come across as a 'Levy lover'
This fanbase is full of fucking gimps lmao
Is he out new no10?
4 more lines and it can be a sonnet
Morgan Gibbs-Quite - quality player!!!
Better than his counter part, MG - Shite!
Could even be a case that we're going to point to the left and then go and sign someone to the right.
Or even point to the left and then sack the cunt that leaked who we were pointing at.
Just to throw this out there, if Wham are dumb enough to sell us Paqueta, I’ve had a complete 180 and think he’d be an outstanding signing.
1. In his peak at 28
2. World Cup year
3. Plays 8 and 10
4. If Palinha is Grays mentor, find me a better profile match to mentor Bergvall than Paqueta… you can’t.
5. A MF 3 of Palinha, Sarr, And Paqueta works. So does a MF 3 of Palinha, Bentancur and Paqueta
6. Richy will be even happier than he is atm

Posters are just throwing all sorts of connotations as to which player was bought for what and why that translates to 'X' Not sure any of it is accurate.
What seems apparent, but who knows for sure is that Frank is vetoing numbers for the sake of numbers.
It also means we seem stuck between a rock and a hard place because we are 2 or 3 quality players short, and we will suffer as a result. A big club with no strategy,
In Newcastke, arguably with a better squad, you see quite a parallel. At least they are actively bidding for players.

West Ham surely cannot sell him, they'd need a replacement, plus they're in danger of relegation
Totally agree. It's a brilliant short term buy and would be a great addition to our squad this year.
Problem is Levy is probably looking at the wholesale market value and wondering if he'll get anything back on him in 4 years when he's 32!
We need a LW, a 10 and a CB/LB hybrid and time is running out
We should not be wasting time or money chasing another 8 IMO
A midfield of Palhinha, Bentancur and Paqueta would be a carbon copy of the Newcastle midfield of Tonali, Bruno and Joelinton.
Be too expensive and is so over rated he'll end up another player we can't use or sell.
Wouldn't complain if we try for Paqueta.
But I feel we aren't getting any of those linked in the media at all. It will be a total out-of-nowhere signing and done in 24 hours. And then possibly a last minute loan.
And even so, this is setting a high expectation of Levy still. He's so incompetent in signings recenty it's just unreal.
Not particularly "creative"
But lots of energy and power there. Lot's of interceptions and tackles high up the pitch.
People say Sarr isn't creative, but he "created" our 2nd goal Saturday by winning the ball that fell kindly to Richarlison who controlled it before Palinha smashed it in.
You don't need to have a high IQ footballer if you have a system that literally creates chances.
Newcastle are having an absolute nightmare and have just accepted overpaying for players to get them.
55m on Elanga
40m Ramsey
60m bid incoming for Larrson
Literally spending over 150m on 3 ordinary midtable players!
But like you said atleast they are bidding and actively bringing players in the door. Levy looks stunned by the current market prices and is more afraid of bringing in the wrong player then going into the season short. Hard to know which club is right tbh but both having a nightmare of a window!
What is best position, he seems to be all over the shop at West Ham
