Have we though? Or have we spent slightly more on fees and a whole heap less on wages?
Whichever way you look at it, we just don't compete in the same market as clubs with which by every metric we should and could be competing with.

We. just.don't. ....People who claim otherwise are either just deluded or have their heads up their own arses.

It's just downright bizarre how so many of our own fans have such low standards and are happy to accept such mediocrity.

We're Tottenham Hotspur ffs . :gazza2:
 
Because, again, you were forecasting that we should be able to score 65 goals...the root of my point is that 65 shouldn't be the aim, but the minimum expectation. And, honestly, if we only score 65 I would be significantly disappointed.

You stated it as though it would be a laudable accomplishment. These players not scoring 65 would be a poor season by our (and their) recent standards.
Probably easier to agree to disagree about exactly who thought what about what.

It's ok.... we know what we are!

I really disagree with this. Dibling needs game time - when is he going to get that at our place, he will be competing with Kudus, Kulu and BJ on the right and Son, Tel, Solomon, Moore on the left. If we sign another winger it has to be someone who can make an immediate impact - that’s not him. Southampton want £50m and I’m not sure he is worth half that.

Palinha - why do Bayern want rid so quickly and which other decent clubs are in for him?

We’d be far better off taking the Dibling and Palinha fees, combining them and going for Wharton or Baleba

So who would you target over the next month or so?
 
No; it is.

You just protected a reasoning onto a bunch of other people that is likely not true for the majority of them.

That's strawman syndrome.
He really didn't. He said he is surprised that 'some' people (which is acceptable as there are posters in this thread suggesting we buy the player) . I for one would not accept signing a player with a Woolwich tattoo. Steer clear.
