We have to take some risks seeking quality at affordable prices but that also means we might have to add cheaper/older depth pieces as insurance policies that might be unappealing to many eg take a risk on Hackney but add an Ndidi or Brownhill as...

Our fans wet the bed when we are linked to championship players , even though they are probably better than half the foreign players we’re linked with. A lot of our fans would prefer a foreign player they’ve never seen or heard of, than the best...

He was the creative player in a 3 at Forest, ever since he has been here he has been shoved in a 2 and made too play as a defensive midfielder which isn't his game imo.

What were we thinking when we bought Branthwaite mate ? There was obviously no chance of him being worth a chance as he wasn't even good enough for the Championship , never mind the Premiership. I think your logic may be somewhat flawed. I don't...

If you’re talking about 17/18, the mega splurge under Koeman. According to transfer market we spent 158.2 million euros on Siggurdson Pickford Keane Klaasen Onyekeru Vlasic Sandro. We sold 125.6 mill euros for Lukaku, Barkley, Deulofeu...

I think this to be true too. Moyes at Wham was looking at better players than Dyche ever dreamed of. The quality step up in terms of targets is part due to Moyes and part due to our financial position improving.

Ndiaye had an absolutely lethal season playing alongside Mcatee as well for Sheffield united. Currently he gets pretty much doubled up on most games

I am closer to agreeing on Kubo than I am with McAtee given his relatively small sample size in a better team not necessarily reading across well and his obvious lack of pace. Kubo has a longer track record in a middling team that feels easier to...

The team looked good at the end of the season and needs incremental improvement. A bit more depth and quality is what is needed for a good season. It is still mainly the major clubs making moves at the moment and a lot of the players we will be...

There's a limited number of ways we do that a) sell a player for big money, b) have CL money c) have a massive uplift in income like happens upon going from EFL to PL or the owner can input a limited amount as per the rules. The belief we can...

The new management team to try to get them ? No blame on Moyes

Point to the word promised. Or even point to where he says he will get elite players. I’ll be right here on the edge of my seat. He actually says elite players is what he wants, as that is what the new stadium deserves.

True. And as clubs don’t bite at those initially high fees and players are looking at not getting signed, the leverage starts to tip our way.

I know that plenty of people rate McAtee but a) is he what we need ? b) is he worth an inflated fee ? c) I know he has played for City , but he would have to become a focal player for us , at that fee , and I feel that there is a massive gap...
