Of course not. Hence, why a club like Liverpool is able to pay 35 million Pounds for Carrol, and 25 million Euros for Suarez, waste shitloads more on average English talent, maintain their squad, yet not make the CL.
It's one signing FFS; I'm not asking us to splash crazy money like PSG, City, or Chelsea, but if we bought someone like Matri for 18 million, 23-25 million Euros for one single player who is so much better isn't a stretch. However, if you fail to see that, then you are just as delusional as Marotta.

Reread my post. I said especially/particularly forwards. If you feel a forward is a want and not a need, then I have no reason to argue with you, as we are obviously not on the same page. A forward is a fucking necessity, a far more important one than adding depth to the squad FFS. However, if you see otherwise, then let's just end it there.
