I know. I’m a changed man. I was so negative under Gerrard. Started to get super negative towards the end of Deano’s reign. I’d like to thank my fellow VTers for helping me through that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m fairly certain in previous seasons we’d have signed someone by now by spending actual money… I’ve mentioned in recent posts that I reckon Emery is going to be frustrated this window, much like he (and we) were in January. I hope that isn’t the case because I’m not sure it will go down well with him… Mentioned it previously and acknowledging the disrupted time table of that window - We bought Matty Cash as our first signing of the 20/21 season (confirmed by the club on 3rd September). The previous season had finished on 26th July. Nearly six weeks between the end of the season and our first signing. The first game of the 20/21 season was 18 days after Cash signed. I may start getting a bit more restless after the next week or so, provided it remains quiet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TELL US NOW! not a jot it’s very early days mate, a little patience will go a long way. It’s a long window too… We didn’t attract and appoint Unai if he wasn’t going to be backed… all we need to do is use a little common sense. He’s the best manager we’ve had in who knows how long? We’re not going to waste this opportunity and he has been given the keys to the kingdom. It’s not for no reason… The club have given him the opportunity and freedom to thrive here and he’s only gotten started. And why would we question our owners too when all they done is benefit and pump millions into the club? It’s a ridiculous notion… Just imagine what Unai will do and manage when he brings in a few players of his own choosing. He basically performed minor miracles in a short space of time with players he inherited, those at his disposal. Only Moreno was added and he has such an impact! After such an amazing turnaround, an amazing recovery of a season, a transformation in our style of play and level of performances from our players… we have every reason to be enthused, optimistic and excited. We had every right to be annoyed, frustrated and critical previously but we should actually be grateful for our recovery and revitalisation! WE GOT UNAI EMERY! WE GOT INTO FRIGGING EUROPE! It really makes no sense and is actually kind of a bad look for us to display the opposite feelings or emotions (negativity, pessimism, doom mongering, pant wetting, anger, frustration etc.) for no real reason or justification. I really don’t want our fanbase to look like a bunch of entitled, spoilt, impatient, anxious, angry bunch of idiots - like so many others do! A bit of unity and togetherness would be quite pleasant but so many of us end up fighting with each other over nothing We need to show some class and humility - like King Unai! 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wishywashy Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 An English club is supposedly pushing for Jeremy Doku... Our #2 option after Williams?

Doubt it given their current options of Diaz, Salah, Jota, Gakpo and Nunez. I think they’ll be looking squarely at their midfield this Summer. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frodo Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 I'm thinking there maybe deals done there may not but I think we are not going to hear anything from the club till 1st July reason being Monchi doesn't start officially till then & he is going to want to be alongside those signings coming through the door. He may well be working on stuff with Emery as we speak but officially its the 1st of July he start & it would surprise me that's when our next signing comes through the door Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would make a change for us to go for one of his transfer targets, rather for them to pinch ours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
