this is bloody hilarious

any defence of king is arselicking apparently

our squad is one of the top 6 in terms of cost to assemble tbf

me too tbf :ROFLMAO:

Hamer is world class but still in the championship two season later :ROFLMAO:

I'm sure he has a plan. If you're being cynical then now probably isn't the moment to spend anyway. Our playoff chances are slim to none, so no point paying inflated prices in Jan for players. Get a few loans in and evaluate Lampard's performance over the rest of the season. Then if we're...

I agree. But I don't think we should be expecting him to do more than that?

I can't see how we've made £5-7m profit on players, especially when you factor in the wage costs which must have risen significantly.

Agreed. That doesn't make BTA a good finisher for having similar conversion stats.

No mate, he covered the losses. The club lost £5m that FY, and that includes making a £2.4m profit from Hyam so it's more like £7m Basically you don't understand that the club just loses money every single year and Doug has to cover that before he can even think about adding extra finance in...

Yeah? What's your point here.

Basically no one for a fee, wasn't it? Mainly loans.

Well, we don't have the accounts. So you have no clue. The latest accounts showed we made a loss of around £5m to May '23 which includes player trading. So Doug must have funded that.

Is he not covering our losses to the tune of ~£5m a year? I don't get this argument of him not putting his own money in. He is, surely, unless my understanding is wrong.

Haji's a great goalscorer, not a particularly clinical finisher though. His strength is generating lots of chances through intelligent movement, pace and heading ability. He's pretty average at actually converting those chances, but because he gets so many he scores a lot of goals. Remember...

xg describes how many chances you get. Not how clinical you are at finishing them.

So he was an average finisher. i.e. not clinical. Not sure why this is difficult to understand. This was all in response to someone comparing him to BTA last season. Neither of them were any better than average at actually finishing chances, which is my entire point.

Do you understand what xG is? He scored 13 non penalty goals in the championship. So converting 13.4 npxg into 13 goals is not clinical, it's below average finishing.

"almost anything" being the constant hatred and abuse he spouts I take it It would be one thing to ignore him if he was alone, but sadly he has plenty of supporters.
