For what it's worth, I don't think it's a lollygagging issue - it's a the moment we had a bid accepted Liverpool were waiting to pounce and match it issue.This is what happens when you lollygag around trying to save money. Someone with conviction comes in and gets the thing you want.
Not investing properly when we were really good a few years back has completely killed this club from a competitive perspective. Good players don't give much of a shit about a sick stadium or training ground, they do however care about playing against the best, earning shitloads and winning trophies. We can't really offer any of those things, at least relative to the best teams going around.
