“Looked good”. So you’d seen Ugbo play before we signed him?
Reality was, he was bit part player for a few months at Cardiff and a virtual unknown to 99% of us.
You HOPED he’d be good. As did everyone. Luckily for you (as it clearly matters to you with you bumping this thread to gloat), he’s been fantastic. Whoever identified him as a target clearly knows what to look for in a striker, which makes a refreshing change for us.
Poveda was someone I’d seen play before and said at the time he’s exactly the type of player we should be going for. As did a few others. But again, neither me, you or anyone else could have anticipated the impact they’d have.
As for Röhl not being happy with the window. Come on ffs, it was obvious with the way he spoke and the things he said. At the time and afterwards. On more than one occasion he’s spoken about potentially bringing in free agents, which in itself suggests he feels we need more.
For me it’s clear, we’ve got a useless clown as an owner who will do the absolute bare minimum every window. January was no different. Luckily for us he’s managed to select a fantastic manager and a couple of quality championship players.
