He certainly never overpaid for Maguire but a lot of people said he did for Livermore and everyone wanted rid of him after his problems.
We paid over the odds for Mason according to most, too many fans just moan for the sake of it.
My opinion is nobody should have been sold in January if Silva wasn't going to remain in charge this season. He sanctioned the sale of Livermore and Snodgrass because of the role they would have under him, then he ****s off at the end of the season anyway.
I hate the Allams but i don't think everything is down to them. Most players don't give a **** these days apart from money. Stupid transfer fees been paid for average players and totally obscene wages.
I've said it before football is slowly killing itself, how anyone can think a goalkeeper is now worth 30mil and players earning 250k a week is good for the game amazes me.
Davies was not good enough for the premier league, and becoming injury prone but was worth more than the 500k we got for him.
Maguire was always going to go to further his career, probably the same with Robbo but he is most definitely not a top 6 player.
I'm sitting tight hoping that the players needed will be coming in, if they don't then we are truly ****ed and will be playing to crowds of less than 10k for sure.
