€11m with add ons I think
The transfer was a total of €9M, not pounds. Pretty sure that’ll include a fair few add-ons too. Next season will be the one that we see him at his best, however I’d say he’s been a success so far for us.
I don’t remember seeing €11m at the time, King said it was €9m here - TRANSFER: Haji Wright joins Coventry City€11m with add ons I think

I find it somewhat ironic that people will complain about players not performing and then quote their transfer fees with all performance based add ons included
All of our deals, in and out, have had some performance incentives attached to them.I find it somewhat ironic that people will complain about players not performing and then quote their transfer fees with all performance based add ons included
Sakamoto: 7G 2A
Wright: 8G 5A
Wright has been significantly more productive.
This is why I can't take Boicey seriously. Sakamoto and Wright play the same position (on opposite sides), and both have played pretty much same minutes in the league. Yet Wright has clearly contributed more - as per stats. That being said, the opinion being floated is Sakamoto is a huge success, whilst Wright has failed and needs to be moved on.
Also, they can't spell "delusional".
Wright didn’t play wide left until we changed formation.Sakamoto didn’t play wide right until we changed formation

What’s your point?
This isn't an anti-Wright post before I get banished, however, there needs to be nuance in the reading of the stats though. Wright's xA for the 5 assists is 0.95. Sakamoto's is 3.27 for the 2 assists he has. Sakamoto creates a lot more, it just goes unfinished. For example, Wright's assist away at Swansea (if I remember right) was a terrible first touch that someone else finished. His pass to O'Hare at Sunderland was a straightforward pass that O'Hare did really well to carve a chance from. Again, not saying Wright isn't good etc. but his assist statistic is definitely overinflated on how creative he has actually been.This is why I can't take Boicey seriously.

Your problems in the bedroom are no business of this forumIt's impossible to have a reasonable nuanced conversation on here. Every opinion expressed is:
1 (deliberately?) twisted : so 'I don't think Wright is value for money and I would cash in and reinvest' becomes i think he's shit
2 nit picked to death
3 used for point scoring
4 immediately switched to name calling and personal.
Reminds me why I stopped coming three years ago.
You do realise Wright was bought in and played as a striker? He was switched wide because he wasn’t cutting it there and MR was searching for a way to get more out him.This is why I can't take Boicey seriously.

Talk about clueless comparisons.
And for the record I haven’t said Wright should ‘be moved on’ I have merely said he hasn’t been ‘awesome’ or ‘excellent’ or a ‘massive success’ he was poor, then showed some potential and is now patchily inconsistent. He has much to prove before given those labels.
Some need a reality check and to cut out the fan boy crap.

I see these comments about Robins signing players who can deliver in the Premier League, and I’m not so sure. Of all the players we have now, it’s arguable that many of them have the quality to play successfully in the Premier League. I think Robins is choosing players to mount a serious challenge on the Championship and gain us promotion. Signing players for the Premier League is getting well ahead of ourselves, if we do get promoted there would need to be significant additions if we were to stay up. Not that I’m suggesting a Nottingham Forest type approach of scattergun signings, even if it did keep them up.We need a better left back and possibly CB I like both Thomas & Kitching but with McFadz gone we need another and atleast two strikers, to be honest I don’t see Wright or Simms being first choices next season.
Robins is signing players who he believes can step up and deliver in the PL, so it’s going to be a summer of rumour and speculation again.
Also another keeper maybe even two, Moore will be gone as could Wilson, you need three.
And it is €9m not £9mAll of our deals, in and out, have had some performance incentives attached to them.
In the case of Simms, the deal is structured in a way that is heavily-incentive based. We’ve not paid £8m for him nor £9m for Wright. That’s their max values.
I was and am still a bit baffled by the comments on his shot at Norwich. Gyo would genuinely do things like that once or twice a game.I see the Wright slander is alive and well and being regurgitated by the same morons who have never even kicked a ball in their lives. Fucking imbeciles
The people saying it are fat bastards that would struggle to get out of their armchair, let alone be an international professional footballer. I literally do not value their opinions at all as they are generally cluelessI was and am still a bit baffled by the comments on his shot at Norwich.

I had the misfortune of reading it all as it happened. I have logged off since to have a breather!Promise me you won’t look on Saturday’s match thread m8. Apparently.. Palmer’s rubbish and his assists don’t count because they.. *checks notes
.. weren’t very good

Indeed and Haaland failed to score an easier chance last nightI was and am still a bit baffled by the comments on his shot at Norwich. Gyo would genuinely do things like that once or twice a game.
But he's a very balanced poster apparently!Promise me you won’t look on Saturday’s match thread m8. Apparently.. Palmer’s rubbish and his assists don’t count because they.. *checks notes

€11m is about £9m which is the upper value of Wright’s deal.And it is €9m not £9m
