I just think it's another weak point in this view that we have a real "strategy" to build a winning club here and that we are executing on said strategy. The evidence seems to be that we are unable to execute the strategy management prefers due to external factors, and are being forced into a strategy many people here support far more, but with less alacrity and forceful decision than warranted.

Wanting to keep good players on terms you feel fit isn't a lack of strategy.
Line in the sand for term or dollars eliminates the chance of getting the player under those terms so you move on.
They've done it over a half dozen times in two years.
It's a far cry from the "please sign with us, any term ... any dollars we don't care" narrative.
