Football supporters are naturally impatient during the transfer window. Every rumour is dissected, every signing is compared and every day without an announcement can feel like a missed opportunity.
But as Dan Smith argues, there is a difference between strengthening a ***** le-winning squad and simply spending money because everyone else is.
Have you ever known (or been) a child who has birthday or Christmas money burning a hole in their pocket?
They have zero concept of budgeting. They just want to buy something new, usually the first thing they see. As the adult, it's your job to educate them, especially when you know they'll be bored of the new toy within days and asking for something else a week later.
Now, I would never call my fellow Gooners childish, but some supporters do seem more frustrated by who ***** nal have not signed than by whether the players available actually represent value.
