I think it is beyond saving now. We will struggle in the first few games and any new signings will take a while to make an impact.

Even a good bit of shopping will leave the question of why we waited so f**king long and ran the squad down so far before acting.

If it costs us a cl place, and you have to accept that is very possible, they are going to look like utter, utter c**ts.

I think this is the summer where we have all finally run out of excuses.
