Well I see the panic button has been well and truly pushed. You know I believe had the club made all its signings at the end of this window then none of you would be complaining. You would have done that already. But know they get the quality players in early, and everyone's happy. For a couple of weeks anyway.
Then it's "we need Walsh to unearth a gem", so we sign a couple of players nobody has heard of, and it's why are we wasting money on them.
Now the latest one is why haven't we bought a striker?, and we need another defender. Talk about fickle.
For the first time in the last thirty years ( and I have supported this club heart and soul for fifty four) I can see the club moving forward. But it won't happen overnight. Now you youngsters should be embracing this, you have so much to look forward to. A new owner, a new ground (which I hope to live long enough to see) , and a new team.
Please, please stop moaning and think of where we where a couple of seasons ago. Look at your programmes, and look at the names on them, and compare them to the names we have now.
We are on our way back people, enjoy it because this is what memories are made of. Trust me I know. Long live the eighties, and long live the blues.

Last I seen RK was also asking for a striker and a CB. And it's not moaning, it's just stating the obvious. I personally think we need some speed desperately on the wings. Again I'm not moaning, just stating what I see.

I am with you there Woburn and I have posted similar posts to yours on here, I cannot believe some still moan and can't see the progress being made, some seem think it all happens overnight like in the football manager games!
There is even the financial changes being made more income and better commercially which will allow us to start competing better financially and afford these better players and satisfy FFP!

When the manager is coming out and saying we still need players well then we need players that's why we are still moaning its obvious what we need so why haven't we got it?

Still want left sided players. Defender and mid not bothered about a striker to be honest. If we get Vlasic then that's the LM/ W. Still we have had a very good transfer window so far and the team is in much better shape than the last couple of seasons. COYB.

I don't see it as moaning Woburneblue .
Firstly I respect and accept to a degree what you are saying .
Yes we have moved forward tremendously BUT if you sell
your main asset and scorer of nearly ALL your goals but have no replacement with only two days remaining of the transfer window it COULD cause us to move backwards after as you point out such strides forwards .
I think or hoped that before lukaku left we already had a replacement lined up .
It looks like we took our eye off the ball ( excuse the pun ) with the Sig signing .
I think fans are frustrated that a club that has done brill this summer could possibly have caused us to be in a position were we struggle for goals AND I THINK RK KNIWS THAT
You are correct though we have done excellent plus possible ground move so both views are correct .

Good post Woburn mate.

EXACTLY Stef the Blue could not have emphasized it better RK says we NEED a striker and he knows better than anyone .
I just cannot understand why they left it so late .
If fans are moaning about not having a striker they are only doing what RK is doing also.

I think it is down to Everton being over confident of Giroud signing, now it's gone tits up we are looking for a plan b and c and time is running out still we have over 20 midfielders so panic over.
