Translation: ‘The boards told me I spent all the money they had given me and although they are ok with what I’ve achieved for now , they said it’s down to me to get rid of the dead weights I purchased and use the funds generated to get better players in. ‘

And PS ‘ there’s a contract there for me to sign, but they have set a few 26 short term targets for me before they are prepared to sign it with me’. ( that’s my hope anyway)
