Dude, we are not Real Madrid, nor are we Barcelona, talk about entitlement and being out of touch with reality. We are a second tier power-club, which leaves us with money to pay for world class players, but without the on-field success to persuade these players to come here, so we are stuck with either over-paying for second tier talent (i.e. McGuire who I think would be a good buy) or investing in prospects...either move is not idea, carries more risk and causes an uproar with the fans, but its where we are at the moment. Transfer season is easy as hell for clubs like Madrid, just pick guaranteed stars and pay them a ton of money and they will come...if we could persuade said stars to come here, we would do the same thing.
