Confirmed Signing Thierno Barry

Everything looks obvious in hindsight. Every player signed by every club in the world could in theory have been purchased earlier in their development for less. It's a weird stick to beat the club with.

The advantage we have being in the league at the top of the tree is that we can afford to delegate a lot of the hard work to clubs across the continent.

It's far easier to sign from 70 or 80 clubs across Europe on the rung below us, because that's 70 or 80 scouting teams looking at unearthing these kinds of players rather than just our own.

We also don't need to sign the misses, which we would've signed if we took all the risk.
 

Once again, where was our interest when he was moving for £14m last season……
Better yet, was he even heard of when we were spending £15m on Chermiti…..
We don't go out and buy players from the Swiss league on a punt for 14 million. Firstly because we were skint and secondly because Switzerland isn't where premier league teams find strikers.

He had hardly kicked a ball in Switzerland when we picked up Chermiti.
 
Just came on the local Valenciano radio station that we are in talks with Villarreal,but that he isn't thrilled with the idea of coming to us and wants to hold out for a higher profile Prem team
All whilst agreeing personal terms with us? Interesting.
 

Great nickname. :lol:
