Nothing to do with being chill or otherwise. You can't say we'll sign a Doc upgrade in the next fortnight with complete confidence any more than I can say we won't.
Wouldn’t put my house on it but I’d be pretty confident. Certainly wouldn’t be screaming we won’t.
Either outcome is still realistic, just because we're all desperate for option A doesn't mean we can talk about it like it's happened. In fact the longer we wait the less time there is to do any more business. Getting the right player isn't a given, regardless of how hard we're trying. Some fans find that more unsettling than others
We might not sign the right player, but time doesn’t affect that. You can sign a dud any time. Like I said, evidence is in favour that we will sign someone, and they will be good.
Same as all this talk of Jota being fourth choice and now you call him a squad player. He started over 30 PL games last season even with his inconsistency, more than Neto (who I agree is big competition for him), and Pod has only just got into double figures for PL starts I think.
IMO, I think we they will replace him, I think he was third choice at best, and Neto I hope can go above e him too. You might not agree, fine. But it’s not like we don’t have options and are going to be left short.
Again, with the money we could end up with a better all round squad, we might not. I have less issue with the club making these calls than I do with people on the forum telling me that their wishful thinking is fact, and my exploration of anything other than best case scenarios is an outrage
Yes we might, agreed. But your using selling Jota (for a very good fee in a position we definitely have ready made replacements/superior players) to panic about not signing a RWB. They are not related. If anything it makes our ability to Sign a RWB better.
