In hindsight yes, but he was absolutely unplayable back then. 

 

Agreed, but as a selling club (which is what many on here want us to be) the best time to sell a player is when he's unplayable.

 

I don't believe the typical owlstalker (if there is such a thing) will accept us selling our better players and replacing with "players with potential". Just imagine, Rhodes* starts the season on fire, 10-15 goals by Christmas, and sold in Jan...

 

 

*Replace Rhodes with Joao or Fletcher or Reach or whoever.

If we had the same squad that had finished last year we'd be pushing a playoff spot. Problem is we've lost our best player and gladiator. 

Who's that, Jones.Boyd or Abdi?

Great, Malek’s about to recommend every player U21 in the country that he knows everyone here will have to google. 

 

Exactly what you love to see right now. 

 

Sorry mate, I work on provision for Wikipedia. You got to make ends meet :happy:

Exactly, Could just see it:

 

Told Bob: Sell him, we need to be a selling club.

 

DC: We have sold him for £12 million pound.

 

Told Bob: What did you sell him for, he's our best player! Ridiculous decision.

 

BTW, No idea who Told Bob is.....Apologies to anyone called Told Bob, no offence intended.

lol

How does that work then

 

They are under scrutiny from the EFL over losses and have been warned of further sanctions if they loose more than 15m this season and yet they sign someone for £5m

Slate was wiped clean with points deduction, They start again from this season.

Only just seen Blackburn Rovers spent £5m on Sam Gallagher. 

 

Remind which club club is well run again? 

 

And remind me who is saying that £7-8m for Joao is unrealistically high?

No, no they don't. The slate is most definitely not wiped clean. They're in trouble.

if report about us not paying new manager anything like same wage as Bruce and reason we are finding it hard to recruit manager and why we are going abroad it suggests we will not be making any permanent signings. I get the feeling loan signings were largely lined up before Bruce quit and DC is hoping to bring these in regardless.

WE may have paid more for Bruce but at least we made money out of him. Getting cheap foreign manager is not a money saver it is bad long term management/

Its not.

its still a three year cycle they have to adhere to.

They can sign a £7m target because they sold Jota and Adams for much more.
