I think we're probably the poor example of this to be honest - we invested brainlessly, just throwing money around. Some players were VERY far from that but it's like we just wanted to flash some cash, not negotiate.
It's important we don't get any more Barry's though, which is where we fall apart - Brentford needed a striker so went and got one that wasn't solely potential and at least was physically going to cut it in Thiago, for example, and there's many others obviously. Like yeah Barry's potential is great and he might come good, but "might" is doing a lot of pulling here
