But in all seriousness, that is what your post is implying is it not? A failed transfer window, and 'something needs to change'?

If not, then I think your wording needs some work!

Because this  is the internet and I CAN READ YOUR MIND lol...

And no, it doesn't - if you read further, I state (as i did at the end of last season) that the METHOD isn't working and the METHOD needs to change. Many of AW's best signings were done by David Dein doing the negotiating, not AW... coincidentally (or not?) this was also when AW was doing his best coaching/managing and we had much success... yes, we know the financial restraints and ra-de-ra, but those days are behind us and we need AW to get back to what he did when we were successful.

So, again, in case you missed it: something needs to change - we cannot follow the same methods as we have in recent years and expect a different outcome... the game has moved on. So must we - whether that's "back to the future" or in another direction.

And again; I said the same last year - it's not new.
