There's a lot of impatience around at the minute with the lack of signings we are making. I do think that the delay in signing players is a money issue, not because we don't have any, but because DC hates being ripped off and I have to agree with him. DC has said before that the longer the window goes on, the more players drop their demands to a more realistic level. I would rather we wait for the right player at the right price than make a panic signing and pay over the odds.
A genuine question, if we were chasing a striker now who's realistic market value was £3k per week, would you rather:
A.) We gave into his demands now and paid him £5k per week to sign him up this week
B.) Signed him at the end of August, meaning he missed the start of the season for us but got him for £3k per week
I personally would much rather it be option B, but I am an accountant.
