I like Styles, but I think selling O’Hare and spending the money on him would be an obvious downgrade. If £2 million was a steal then someone would have met that release clause by now.
He’s struggled to make an impact this season and has only recently started to score/create goals. The obsession with him on this board is one of our strangest recurring bits.
Teams in our division rarely pay that much for a striker unless they’ve recently come down from the PL with a wheelbarrow full of parachute payments - it’s not a lot of money for them in the same way it is for us.
It’s a joke about spiking a woman’s drink with an illegal drug that’s synonymous with date rape in order to impair her judgment.
I’m not saying it’s the greatest scandal in political history but this is a strange hill to die on!
Like which ones?
Another thing to consider is that relegated teams flush with parachute payment cash and PL talent can afford for £8 million strikers to underperform; we don’t have that luxury.
In a weird place with him right now where on the one hand he’s clearly settling in, playing well and looking like our most dangerous striker. And on the other hand, I still think he’s got a long way to go to offer value for money at £8 million.
