Thats not their issue for me. The issue is spending £70mill on 2 players around them who don't have the things you've mentioned. If we'd have bought a Delap for example (yes he turned us down), hed compliment the two more than Barry. If we'd have brought in some actual pace instead of £40mill...

I've always argued that sometimes you've got to let numbers and metrics slide because they can also be flawed if relied on to make a decision. We've had players like Mina and Gomes on £100k+ a week each and never played. We've paid £30mill for a striker who could easily be a waste of...

Which is the only argument against Jack

Theres £40mill sat on the bench every game.

If Ndiaye was on loan, on £300k a week, and £30mill to make it perm...would there be hesitation to make it happen?

You're going to be paying the same price for someone not near his quality. Even if you did find one at a younger age... sadly he'd have more favourable suitors than us. Think wage wise he'll take a drop from the £300k a week he's on. We'd be silly not to make it perm if all parties are happy.

Kissed the badge. Heads will roll if he doesn't sign permo next year

Probably has the skillset of a top flight footballer but not the mentality or fortitude.

Hes been our best CM and best RB

Ellis Sims did more, thrown into bigger games, and got sold cos he wasn't good enough. If Barry was from Toccy from the academy, you'd be slated and sent back to the under 23s

Don't think there was much difference in the performance from Saturday and this one. Less mistakes and Bournemouth being lackluster up top helped

That chance is bare minimum of a premier league forward should be doing. And it looked difficult for him

Beto is 12th in the xG league btw

Hes effective if used to his strengths. Holding up the ball, one twos, link up play arent it.

Issue is and always will be that the way we're set up means we dont play balls over the defence for Beto to run on to. Grealish and Ndiaye want to get to the touchline, square it, or thread balls through. Barry is better technically to link play up over Beto who isn't going to do that. So it...
