So not playing a player we paid £40m for is the better idea? It's not a good look, this transfer, so far.

40 million on potential isn't what we need right now.
70 million on him and Barry doesn't seem like the best use of funds

I’d much rather spend that type of money on potential (low wages) than the dross we spent it on under Moshiri. High wages with bang average premadonnas
The lad will be worth every penny and a lot more, he has 2 wide players that would walk into most other teams in the league in front of him, those 2 players are the perfect combination for him to learn from..
We have a young talent on our hands, be bloody happy !!

I'm not expert but ....
Spite managing a team that looks as if it will easily avoid relegation, there is no way on God's green earth we will win the title, we are building for the future, we are 2-0 down to a team of millionaire mercenaries .... what is likely to happen? The team you started with is going to turn it around? Very unlikely. Time to experiment, throw the dice, blood something new with a chance of impact. 5 minutes is not the time to do that, in my view.

I mean, it’s not difficult is it. So what if we concede another ( we would have anyway without JP).I was calling for 5 subs after their second goal went in, just even to protect KDH on a yellow, illy who was knackered etc.
Try a different system with the different players, got nothing to lose.
A three or four nil defeat demoralises the team and disrupts momentum.
And the point is that the club have a future vision. We all want to win every game but they have to plan and budget per season..and buy to the best of thier ability.
Mosh just chucked money at it and there was little strategy, then his funding line was cut leaving not very good players on big money and long contracts..disaster.
In my view we now need a firing centre forward and two overlapping fullbacks, though Myko is not an urgent one to be replaced. We are much better now and three additions away from being quite a handful.
That is without seeing the best of Rohl and Dibling as yet.
I have no patience but we all need a bit if the team is going to be rebuilt properly within our budget. We have three to sell now to help fund it. Patterson, McNeil and Beto.
We didn't lose to city today, we lost to a beast named Haaland..
Other than trying to control that monster, which when in this form, no-one has a chance.
We stood up and even with a loss i think the lads can hold their heads up.
Like mentioned above, a 3 - 4nil loss and the players would be walking off with their heads down.
If beto had finished we could of ended up walking away with atleast a draw..
Rohl & Tim both got on and had decent cameos.
Their was positives to take from today, although no points.

What a lot of people seem to forget is we weren't an attractive club during summer recruitment ( and haven't been for quite a while now )
It doesn't matter if we have more money, without Europe you instantly have to drop down a level of your player pool. We had plenty of players who did that, one even decided he'd rather stay at lyon in Ligue 1 rather than us.
So we have to to look at younger prospects that you can sell your future goals to.
This is us now, this is how we are going to have to work until players start seeing us as an attractive club to play for.
Patience is a necessity or you will carry on living in a cycle of disappointment..
He got a few minutes when we were already two down, as if this thread is even a thing.
Can you post links to those threads please?
Well your in a thread complaining about the thread, possibly cos of the negativity 'which is in every thread' or its maybe cos he hasn't played enough to warrant such quick opinions..
If its the latter, than that does make sense, maybe player threads shouldn't come active until they've played like 10 games or so, then conversation can be that bit more genuine, rather then bloated assumptions on players that they haven't had time to actually see.
