Same for Gale on the wings.No good naming players who have shown nothing like the level required and saying it's job done. SS said we needed five players and we've signed nobody since. I don't see why that target would've shifted.

I’d personally rather spend a bit more on a permanent move if it’s possible rather than loan fees which I consider a waste of money in many cases. I could understand a loan for Amario because we’ve absolutely no chance of signing him but not for Kenny.I know it's the case with all loan moves to an extent, but with Kenny the situation is seemingly we rate him a lot higher than Celtic do. If we sign him on loan and we're right, his price doubles or triples next season which benefits Celtic more than it does us.It's not my money to say 'just find another £m or so', but it is a bit annoying.

Welbecks and guaranteed 10+ and won't mind not playing every game. Hendo is a proper leader and will sort the younguns out. They'll do well this season Chelsea imo. Edited August 10Aug 10 by gonzo
