excuse me for snipping your post but i think the words i've highlighted are important. i'm fairly convinced that rodgers and ayres and all the rest are not sitting with their fingers up their jacksies wondering what the hell to do. i'm also convinced that they are not going to be announcing every thought, transfer target and offer that crosses their minds to the UK press and footy forums. what do people expect? are we hoping the club are going to announce "don't worry, we're going to sign sanchez. and if not, we'll get benzema or rodriguez or hulk"?
the only hope people have is from the baseless rumours they see floating around the internet. my opinion is that it is best not to get excited or to despair until we see some concrete news from the club itself. there is plenty of time left in the window, and the world cup isn't even over yet. i'm sure the action will hot up and quality players will be coming in over the next few weeks. until then, lets enjoy the smell of the 70 odd million quid we've got to spend.
