I propose we panic buy.
But I’m gutted that we have do. Straight up dereliction of duty by the club. How can we end up panic buying to fill a position we all knew needed beefing up since the end of last season?!? It was actually a more critical position to fix than any of the positions covered by the players we did sign. Goals win games an’ all.
The club will pin the entire summer business (and failings) on EtH. They briefed on how the new manager rejected all the candidates proposed by the scouting, and how they are trusting him full-tilt to make the right signings. Ultimately, the blame will be laid at the door of manager if this season goes to shit, which it likely will given the barebones squad
It is so difficult to be optimistic about this club because they brief one thing and do another, the entire Ragnick expirement was to fix the foundations so we go into the summer with a plan. But, we've pissed about and gotten ourselves into same situation again. We struggled for goals last season, and yet our fanbase thinks Rashford and Martial will suddenly step up this season. And, vast majority even advocate selling Ronaldo without having any replacement lined up.
