I don't know about anyone else but I am becoming increasingly frustrated by the lack of transfer activity in and out of our great club. Our American owners seem to change their transfer ideas every time that they get out of bed.
At this risk of sounding boring and repetitive we have been constantly linked with numerous players and then we seem to lose interest, only to have the interest revived again once the price has been jacked up. We have been linked with Malouda for a while now and Rafa has been wanting to sign wide men since he took over yet we don't seem to pursue them hard enough from the start; leaving the player thinking "well do they really want me to play there or not", now I am not saying that we need to chase after every Tom, Dick and Harry. But for crying out loud lets make some decisions as to what positions we need to fill and with what players we need to fill these positions with, then actively pursue them in the transfer market.
Secondly, all I hear from people in this forum is " be patient", As I type this there is approximately 8 weeks until season 07/08 kicks off. And we have signed Lucas Levia. Still undecided what is going on with Cisse, still haven't got anyone to buy the players that we seem to want to get rid of, and yet we are all told to be patient and that it is all under control.
I find this hard to believe, somewhere in there we need to train for pre-season get all the players to start geling together. We need a new striker that can score 30+ goals a season - go and get one. We need to stop pussy footing around and start to make some statements show the rest of Europe that we are serious about what we are trying to achieve.
In Summary - lets BUY a big player (Torres) as an example and lets do it soon, lets stop waiting for other clubs to compete with us on paticular players - such as Malouda and Bent. Lets do some business. If we don't want Bellamy sell him, stop hanging out for money if thats what's happening and lets just get rid of him.
