Not a good evening for the R'sss

[stanistheman]

losing Remy a day before the end of the window was a real blow and we've had little time to react
Harry thought he'd stay

HR should have had strikers lined up already as Remy's clause made him a ridiculous bargain and there was never a realistic chance that he'd stay. and if he did no harm in having Remy, Austin, A. N. Other; Vargas & Zamora

[stan_bowles]

Personally, I would've preferred us to have got our **** together weeks ago, rather than leaving it until the last minute. We dragged our heels with Sightorsson (who would've been asking for a lot less than 90k a week) and boned that one off because of wages demands....yet we're happy to keep paying the deadwood.

Typical Redknapp,leaves it to the last minute then it's all 'There's no one available'.

As for the deadwood,would you want them in your team at those salary's?.We are stuck with them unless someone is mug enough to take them.

[stainrodisalegend]

We have to also consider the impact on the rest of the squad if we pay one player 90k a week. It often creates disharmony and jealousy, and if they then don't perform, the fallout breaks the team. We've seen it happen before.

As has been stated many times, a lot of fans not blaming the club in the slightest for refusing to pay a so-so player 90k a week. what they find frustrating is that we didn't sign A striker to replace Remy. Hooper? Crouch? Sometimes you have to be pragmatic.

[West Acton]

I'm not saying there is a bottomless pot of money - I'm saying we should've gauged an idea as to what Borini's demands might be before putting in a bid...that way, you can look elsewhere with time to spare. As it is, we've shafted ourselves by taking this stance. We'll happily give Adel Taarabt and SWP a combined total of 110k a week, but scoff at Borini on 90k. It isn't about acting Charlie big spuds, it's about common sense, and taking a calculated risk.

Do you think he is worth 90k a week??

[Dale]

Looks like that is it

Pleased with Sandro but could of done with the extra striker

[stationcafe]

Sandro is about the best DM we could have hoped for, so happy on that front.

But HOW do we not have a single striker we can turn to now. We always knew Defoe was overpriced, that Welbeck would go to a bigger club, that Remy could leave at any point.

Just go for Hooper or whoever.

[Rangers77]

Milan in for Adel?? Hmmm.

[West Acton]

If we persist with one up top should get away with it until jan or worse case scenario name 24in squad and hope a decent unattached player presents itself

So what happens if Austin breaks a leg (literally) at Utd?

[Norths]

Top news, get it done.

[Rangers77]

Top news, get it done.

Sorry Norths. Was kidding.

The point is we shouldn't be in this position. Weve had all ****ing summer for god sake why hasn't the obvious lack of goals been adressed. Its gonna be someones elses fault thats for sure

[Hertford Hoop]

To make it even worse some chelsea chavs making themselves look stupid on SSN

[Norths]

Sorry Norths. Was kidding.

Tease
