Clement has some money burning a hole in his pocket following the midweek sale of Gylfi Sigurdsson and it is very clear that the money needs to be spent to get the replacements in that we desperately need.

Clement is aware of that and says that the board and he are on the same wavelength in terms of what is needed to strengthen the squad as we enter the last ten days of the transfer window.

Clement said: รขโ‚ฌล“The moment Gylfiรขโ‚ฌโ„ขs going you know you need to do strengthen. Without him, Llorente, Ki… when theyรขโ‚ฌโ„ขre out we are weaker.

“We still have a good squad, but absolutely more quality players have to come in so we have a chance of being competitive. The situation is fluid, texts, e-mails are going back and fore, and we hope that by the deadline – or the sooner the better – we can get it done.

“The necessity is there, itรขโ‚ฌโ„ขs clear, and itรขโ‚ฌโ„ขs a view shared by others in the club.

รขโ‚ฌล“Last week I was more disappointed with the performance than the result

รขโ‚ฌล“Today Iรขโ‚ฌโ„ขm more disappointed with the result than some of things Iรขโ‚ฌโ„ขve seen. I was happy with some of the things defensively, not so happy offensively.

รขโ‚ฌล“We went a goal down and tried to do something about it but we got punished and itรขโ‚ฌโ„ขs hard to take.รขโ‚ฌย
