The "thinking they're in a window" part is hilarious. What gave them that delusion?
And having Sam Walsh and Cripps in the same team makes them too one-dminesional, especially when theyre two of the highest paid players in the team.

I can understand why the club would pay a little more to keep Hayward but Florents contract length and the fact we paid overs boggles my mind.
