They can change. They can sign players who are not 'generational talent prospects'. They have done it before. When they first took over the club they signed some real old bo**ocks players. Remember Aubameyang. It was only later they changed to only signing youngsters. So they can change. But, how did they not realise that you would need balance in a team/squad?

Am not sure they can without breaking that wage structure. Any quality experienced player will want to get paid well. You keep that wage structure as it is, and the only option is mid-type experienced players like Tosin from mid table clubs.

Fans don’t realise our summer transfers are almost set. Emegha as the CF, Quenda & Satpaev as the wingers, Barco as the midfielder, Penders to return as the goalie fix, might just sign a mid table experienced CB to keep the fans happy 😊

This. The average age of the squad is going to plummet next season. The worst is yet to come.

This. Our summer is already kinda set and in term of cb we have 1000+ cb already on the book.

I am really not sure what position that we need in term of "immediate impact" because we have so many players already in every position.

A while ago I said winger but we have neto, estevao, Garnacho, gittens and now Quenda.

They had money then. They have to sell first now and everyone knows they are sh*t at this.

Simon Jordan explains why it's always someone else's fault, not his investment decisions at all . Oh no ...

A lot of other things went on with my life. Everything that could go wrong did go wrong.

The Spanish property market collapsed. The American real estate market collapsed and I was losing millions overnight. I had millions stuck in films and other deals.“I did a deal with a big Spanish developer and he went into administration for £1.5bn and owed me several million.“The Lehman Brothers failed. I had a portfolio worth £4m turn into one which was minus £2m.

“I have spent all my time talking to the banks and trying to keep pace. I have not enjoyed the last two years. There’s no fond memories for me.

My brother got caught out by the Spanish property market, still has the flat yet rents it and just covers the interest.

On Lehman's I knew an accountant who said they got a few million back after it went into administration.

On reading a book about Banking crisis's in the West it was very strange they let Lehmans go under, they knew this from the 30's when a stock market bubble was compounded by a banking crisis when they let the NY Bank of United States go under as it was a small bank. However a city official warned it was not a big bank yet was a very busy bank. This sparked the global depression as a bank run started.

This and am glad fans are actually not buying their bullsh*t PR.

We are known their version of experience is a 22 year old instead instead of a 20 year old

I watched a video on the 2008 crisis. They showed the Lehman Brothers building in New York . And then they showed the building where those responsible for the bad loans etc etc were now working after the crash.

It was actually right across the street !

Because people who literally knew nothing about football decided that they could do it better than those with years of experience. .

Todd as Sporting Director for instance

All star game. . . American sports, although less popular on a global level, make a lot more money. Capitsalism. innit. That has always been their angle. Their goal. Imposing that structure on the simple people of Europe. They are still very much on course to achieve this. A European Soccer League Franchise with guaranteed income. Judged on their own terms, so far, they think they are a success. Their plan is on course.

This whole disaster was unnecessary and easily avoidable.

Roman didn't change the management structure in his first season with Chelsea. .. Replaced Ranieri with José after the season was over.. The players he bought got us to our highest ever PL finish that first season ( from 4th year before) .Think he brought in Kenyon for the second season.too .

This lot ripped everything apart straight away, , even down to sacking the medical team and the groundsmen for good measure. They continued spending Roman levels and more.and plummeted us down the table, out of Europe and our worst ever finish. while telling us we were underperforming all over the place with Roman and they were going to put it right.

Sheer arrogance, ignorance of football, disrespect for our football club and us fans all within months of the takeover..

I don’t fault any player for speaking out about ambition, wanting more, and a desire to win trophies. There’s still a way to do that, but I don’t think anyone (Enzo) crossed a line there either.

Someone had to say it, and was long overdue

The most baffling part of it all is that Cucu openly criticised the model and structure, Enzo just said Madrid is a nice place to live…

Yet one is banned and the other isn’t.

Then he cried and said everybody left the club, but the reality was that he and the rest sacked all the football people and replaced them with data nerds.

Probably Mudryk as well

Yes we have so many players. The only position where I think a ready made player make sense is midifeld, this is assuming that James is not a midfielder
