Either way, my point stands - we're too slow, too laborious, too disjointed, and too indecisive to get the players we need to boost the team, in a timely fashion. If we weren't in for Depay, we should have been, given that goalscoring is our top, numero uno problem this season.
Clubs with single decison-makers get things done quicker. We're the only top tier club with a committee. We fail continuously on transfers. There's a connection between the two. And the connection isn't "money" or "glamour" or "manager's reputation".
