If he did right the ship it went wonky again
Even Fergie has had a bad half season (in the league I stress) in his carrer. Let's see how long it's going to take us to get the next trophy now, any trophy.
You are right Vish I stand corrected. Bring King Kenny back and put him in charge of the transfer budget I say.
I totally agree that we overpaid for his signings, and as much as I understand, Comolli was responsible to negotiate the prices. But seriously who you thought then was not going to improve our team. Andy Caroll was playing very well for Newcastle (it was also probably difficult to sign somebody else young with potential sell on value as requested by the owners, 10 mins before the closing of the transfer window), when Downing was signed how many fans said, at last we have signed a decent winger (Ashley Young who was the first choice went to Manure), Adam had a very good season for Blackpool and even Fergie (maybe it was a bluff) thought that his corners were worth 7m, Henderson though was relatively unknown but the under 21 Captain of England, again good probable sell on value. Craig B was a good buy.
Even with those players still finding their footing in a new team, KD had a decent 1st half of the season and we were still in the mix for 4th place having struck the post I don't know how many times and without SG. The second part of the season was bad in the league as I don't think we had a squad big enough to compete in 3 competitions. He has been sacked for his mistakes and I really hope that the replacement is better and we would improve over last year.
