You cant blame him for wanting out. We've been a mess for 2.5 years because of under investment and poor scouting. Incredibly, as it stands today, 2 weeks before the season starts we're weaker than last season with no Toby or Bale. Just think going to City to win trophies is lazy and unimaginative. It would have been nice if the board had made 2 or 3 big signings early summer to try and change his mind but fat chance with this mob.
There needs to a deadline on this thing. Because let’s say we get tons of cash, we need to have time to spend it and the clubs we are buying off need to have time to replace the players they lose to us.
Last thing we want is £180m cash but none of it spend on forwards because it was too late.
