You'll have to forgive me here as I won't be at my best as I'm a little under the weather.

But logic has nothing to do with it and wasn't the issue I was addressing. Hugo goes down and we call back Vorm for the emergency short term. Made sense then, makes sense now.

The GK issue somewhat illustrates my point in that it wasn't a position of particular weakness. Some may have had quibbles but I don't believe anyone would have suggested it was the position that was holding us back or the first position needing to be addressed. When the stop-gap is no longer needed we will return to at least parity with the average of the comparable teams ie stop-gap makes sense.

On the other hand if you take our MF and forward line they were positions for improvement either through quality or numbers. And these issues, along with the FBs, predated any injuries. What we've done is at best retain our previous level...which was shit.

On the other hand, Liverpool, the best team in the world (literally), have just added a transfer from a position of strength. He is a promising forward, picked up permanently, and on the cheap. He was identified and the matter was handled expeditiously. I will let you guess which day his transfer was confirmed.

Your prior post asked "is that weird to you?".... I was addressing that part.

Your point appears to have shifted, but....

Do we stand to be stronger than if Kane et all were fit? ...Of course not. If we go on to sign a DM (eg) in theory yes we are; tho not so much if the injuries remain un-addressed.

What!?!? They just spent like 60 million on this fella. Why would they give him to us? A direct rival for top 4. Get your head out of the cement mixer son
 
Admin Admin - perhaps sling this drivvel back in the trf thread.
