It's also very arbitrary, for example, Haji wright as our record signing, signed to score goals, and full the void left by big Vik, he has scored goals, so is that a Hit (better than expected) or Ok (as expected).
Did we really pay £3m for Bassette
Think i read in £s it was £2.1 million, with add ons. We'll still get most of it back in todays market probably.
Hamer and Gyokeres were Badlan tbf, but our recruitment by and large is very good. It’s the primary reason we’ve achieved what we have.
One more to catch Big Cyrille and Matty G in the all time list. He's scored almost at the rate of Dion Dublin and Ian Wallace and scored the most goals in the Championship bar none during the time he's been here, despite a lengthy injury break, missing preseasons, playing while recovering to regain fitness etc etc. Absolutely a run away success by any measure.
Definitely a hit. He's done exactly what we wanted him to do.
Winner's mentality innit.
Some people have very unrealistic expectations
My point is spending money doesn’t guarantee anything
Eh? I’m saying that just because he cost £9m doesn’t mean he was a guaranteed success, as shown in the list above.
I think this time last year people were saying Lampard would get rid of Wilson, Simms, Dasilva, Latibeaudier, Allen, Eccles and Bidwell last summer. Shows how much they knew.
God I hope not, that ship has long sailed. Want a midfielder that can actually move
Won't be Nunez that's for sure . Bearing in mind they seem to have bonkers owners currently and only one year left of his deal, you just don't know,it depends how he's used if it was here, but realistically he PO in champ.
Inflation, plus circumstance of signing.
He was a fantastic player for us and if he comes i will of course support him and keep my fingers crossed that he can get his fat arse into shape. I am surprised how many people seem to ignore what the fans who watch him are saying though almost out of some sort of weird loyalty to the bloke. These aren't butt hurt fans who are lashing out because he's gone, these are fans watching a player who is still there, who they previously loved. In what is now a poor Blunts team, the vast vast majority of comments from their fans are things like he's overweight, he's lazy, he plays for himself etc... I don't think he'd really be talked about if he wasn't an ex player. I think he'd probably be best served going to one of the bigger clubs in the Dutch league, he'll probably do quite well there, overweight or not.
Unless we're changing our transfer strategy to sign the biggest arse wipes in football, i don't think we'll touch Nunez. We'll leave that strategy to the tractor humpers.
Could see it if Sheff Utd are selling him off cheap?
Some horrific recruitment decisions on that list, Haji looks like an absolute bargain.
How Leicester managed to turn a profit on Cannon is a mystery.
Some harsh ok's going on there. Amongst others
To be left on the sidelines for a fair chunk of the season and slot in like he did was frankly quite exilerating., knows how to close out a season, whether that's covering an injury or somebody who's wandering is going to revealed by this summer.
