So, with a little over 9 days left, we have signed no one, poch doesn't seem confident that we will sign anyone. So who is to blame? Levy, Lewis, ENIC or all of them?

I have defended Levy time and again on here and numerous other places, but I firmly believe that this transfer windows failure lays firmly at Levy feet.

There have been many transfer made that Levy could have competed with, but hasn't, I appreciate we may not have fortunes to spend and to improve our team will take money. But players in the mould of Yarmolenko (17.5m) we should be looking at, not a first teamer but would improve the squad and give options to change games, the are many others who would have been viable options to improve the squad but have all been over looked.

I feel Levy is playing a very dangerous game, not about money as many of you suggest but over power, Poch outburst at the end of last season, about not knowing what the future holds, tottenham needing to be brave etc, I think this is Levy' way of showing Poch who is in charge. If this is the case, our next signing will need to be a manager as Poch will go and I for one would not blame him. Levy and ENIC really need to go and quickly or we will drop as quickly as we have rose.

I think it’s our scouts that’s the problem. Who really approved the purchases of Sissoko. Aurier, Llorente, Janssen, to name a few. We have been very poor of late when it comes to buying players.

The idea is to improve the squad, if that can not be done and there are suitable youth players coming through, then don't buy for the sake of a purchase.

The problem may not be purchasing but moving on current players. if no other teams are interested, or if the fees are not suitable, or the player does not want to move, how do we make space for any new comers. and at this late stage, what's the chances of moving any of them on.

When the entire football world is telling you not to buy Moussa Sissoko don't whinge when you can't sell him two years later or think it's an excuse not to buy anyone. All these players we can't sell are Levy buys 100%, no one else. Just like Baldini wasting the Bale money, the Saha, Nelson transfer window to a crazy retractable pitch, it's all Daniel and we pay him half a million a month for the privilege. I'll make it easy for Daniel, two of these three, Martial, Kovacic or Pulisic. If you can't afford it sell the club.

Add Zaha to those three and any 2 I'd be Happy with, but can't see it.

Ps Lucas, it wasn't a whinge, just reality, Sissoko isn't the only one we need rid of. and clearly it is an excuse not to purchase anyone, we are permitted 25 players as stipulated by the premier league rules and if we can't ship out or loan out players on £70k a week, then what.

Our business SHOULD have been done earlier as Poch was clearly voicing off before. Now that is Levys fault.

But let's wait till the windows shut and then see where we are.
