Is it just me, but aren't things very quiet lately?

A few weeks ago we had the Gerrard controversary, before that the search for a new manager and the appointment of Rafeal Benetiz, and before that Houllier's sacking.

However, since the Gerrard situation died down three weeks ago, things have been awfuly quiet.

Sure, we signed Cisse, but that deal was done and dusted months ago, and it was really Houllier's baby.

Benetiz held training for the first time on Monday, but as far as I am aware he has still to finalise his first team coaching staff.

This is in contrast to Mourinho at Chelsea who finalised his staff prior to commencement of training and states that he wants to finalise his playing squad before 21st July.

There has been a lot of speculation in the newspapers over the past 5 or 6 weeks about who Benetiz will sign, but again, aside from Cisse, there has been no movement. Even the long expected clear out of the dead wood has been a lot slower than anticipated.

This is not levelled as a criticism of Benetiz as he probably wants to get the feel of Melwood and the playing staff before he makes any major decisions, and chances are he'll have a number of irons in the fire as far as transfers goes, but PERSONALLY I am getting slightly worried that we haven't really begun the sort of squad overhaul we all expected at the end of last season.

Perhaps its the clam before the storm?
