A month ago (exactly), there was this question in the Masthead Free Podcast mailbag:
match Adele's rolling in the deep to a current player
and sing it
by brometheus on Apr 14, 2014 | 10:29 PM.
But one of the podcasters on Masthead Free Podcast decided it was too hard for him too sing, so he created "Missing Erik" based on Turning Tables instead.
So I have decided to write my own lyrics to the song, not based on one player, but seven. I won't be singing it either, but here's the original song if you don't know it:
Hope you enjoy

With the Bale money
There's a signing, who should have played in the hole
But for no reason, the coach didn't put him that role
Another recruit, normally left wing
Played central midfield, thank you Tactics Tim
For our striker, another guy who's new
We overestimate the things that he can do
Our new DM, in the midfield's heart
Is already hoping that he's going to depart
Now Bale is gone, he won't score us goals
But he keeps me thinking that we almost had it all
He plays for Real, in the CL final
But I can't help feeling
We could have had it all
With the Bale money
We had the time to spend it right
Was a record, transfer fee
Maybe next year we'll see our record signing
But I've seen many rumors that he is leaving
Our newest defender, reflecting our despair
Went back to Romania and got drunk over there
In our midfield is a Brazilian star
But he is now thinking of joining his friend Oscar
And signing Sherwood just left us helpless
I can't help feeling
We could have had it all
With the Bale money
We had the time to spend it right
Was a record transfer fee
We could have had it all
With the Bale money
We had the time to spend it right
Was a record transfer fee
Goodbye Sherwood, I'll show you to the door
A new manager is what we must look for
Turn your gaze away from Pochettino
Let's sign FDB, Levy do what you're told
We can have it all
We can have it all
It all, it all, it all
We can have it all
In 2015
If Levy finally gets it right
Let's sign FDB
We can have it all
In 2015
If Levy finally gets it right
Let's sign, let's sign
Let's sign, let's sign FDB

P.S: Sorry to all the MoPo fans, I don't have anything against him, but "FDB" was much easier to fit in the song.
