This has absolutely zero to do with who is in charge of transfers and has everything to do with who is available, we can afford and who WANTS to come and play for us. Just stop with all of the "who is in charge of transfers" garbage.
Hmmm, another poster who could do with a chill pill. It's everything to do with who is "available", who we "can afford", and who "wants to play for us"? It's hard to argue with any of that really, it's kind of stating the obvious. I think this is probably why we're not going to sign Lionel Messi, am I right?
If though we allow ourselves to think outside the box for a bit, perhaps try and work within the confines of "who we CAN afford", who DOES want to play for us" and who we COULD possibly render available by making a decent offer (as normally if you pay enough money ALL players become available) and see if we can come up with any names.
Conservatively, I'd say we can probably AFFORD anything up to around 25 million quid, we can probably this would render a few footballers "available", then once we speak to the player if we offer them a rise, surely SOME of them would want to play for us.
Just to recap, I'm advocating signing one or both of two players who we could definitely afford, who we could definitely render available by our offer, and who would definitely want to play for us.
