Ambition where has it gone? 21:27 - Aug 31 with 1362 viewshughesy2013

I cant get over the lack of ambition at this club these days. Since a good first few years establishing ourselves in the premier league we havent gone forward but we are just going backwards. I even think we have lost our identity of playing great football these days which made us unique, but instead we have gone really boring to watch. I would love to know what has happened to all the money we have made over the years because it doesnt add up, unlesss we are sitting on millions! Also with Huw Jenkins making decisions on who we sign and who we dont how can we ever say if a manager is doing well or not when its not him who has a say what players he wants in his squad or not! I can only see one thing happening for us this year and that is us struggling massively to stay in the premier league when we should be kicking on to be a top 10 team which we promised in our early years!

They've had a crack at the top six and decided its not really worth spending a c*nting fortune to get there again.

Spend a few mill here and there and hope for mid table.

You know we just broke our transfer record right? We will have to make sure we do it three weeks later next season so that the fkwits get excited about it. If we had signed all our players today everyone would be wetting their panties.

That's not the whole truth though is it? Unless you are seriously saying that we have no gaps in our squad that needed bolstering?

You have stated that the ambition has gone when we are doing now what we have always done.We have never been ambitious. Saying we are unambitious three weeks after we broke our transfer record is priceless. lulz.

In answer to the OP regarding "ambition gone" I'd say it's gone the same way as that of those sycophantic non-investigative so called journalists who were creaming themselves over the new American "investors" and who will be quick to blame Guidolin if it all goes tits up.

What I don't get is why Huw and the Americans bang on about the next level, but show no reason's to believe that in the transfer market?

They talk it up to keep the plebs happy.

Think of them as a taxi firm maintainence garage. Rather than replacing with a shiny new model. They just patch up the car with scrap or sub standard parts just to keep it going from a-to-b 👍

I never felt this much resentment when we signed Paul Connor.

Just look at what happened to villa and they are a far bigger club than us

If it can happen to them it can happen to us

The common denominator is american owners

They are effing locusts,only interested in making money

I just can't see us getting ourselves playing well enough to keep us out of the bottom part of the league

But the owners aren't really bothered

I think the effing locusts were Welsh/Dutch/South African etc mate. The new lot are just potential locusts.

What nonsense.

We've loaned Bartley and brought in VDH. Great.

We've sold Eder and Pakoschi and loaned out Gomis and brought in Llorente and Baston. Great.

We sold JJS and brought in Fer now made permanent. Great.

We've sold Williams and brought in Mawson ???

We've sold Ayew and brought in no one.

We've shipped out Tabanou, Grimes, lots of young players. Possibly Emnes.
We've brought in a goalkeeper for no reason.

Britton and Rangel are a year older.

Nothing to do with timing. Look at the above and think about it.

Do you get the concept of net investment? So we've signed a player for 15m but sold players for 40m. Rock bottom of the net spend league at a -17m (or profit to Yanks). If we had a stronger squad to start with fair enough but our squad has gone backwards as we sell any quality at the first offer.
If our 15m signing is injured or like many 2nd tier forward from Spain, doesn't hack it in the premier league we're in serious trouble on the pitch. But we'll still make a whacking profit so all will be well!
