Exactly. Why the **** did we pay money for him. Surely McCann knew what he was getting. Their chairman was honest enough about him. What a twat!
And yet despite all that, they've not played five years out of the last 12 in the PL.... Great system!
Which is terminated by mutual agreement,mutual being the key word here. I'm not disagreeing here about Grosicki,he was a decent player.But you've already stated on numerous occasions that McCann was the problem( not entirely disagreeing with that either)...Grosicki may or may not have kept us up,we'll never know.Surely we can agree on that?
Southampton signed van diyk for 13 million and sold him for 75 million a couple of years later. celtic are probably gutted but there you go
The owners or manager wanted to cash in thinking we probably had enough points on the table or they had better options in the pipeline in Scott and Maddison. Scott was injured almost on arrival and Maddison was just simply gash. Then you have the manager that simply refuses to move from 4-3-3 despite not having players available to play in that formation. It was very frustrating.
Will be interesting to see how Maddison does at Charlton. I liked Turbo because like Bowen he could change a game in an instant and on his day was absolutely class. Unfortunately for reasons only he ( or perhaps his agent ) often drifted out of games and simply never got going.
Brentford is exactly the model ehab wants to emulate. Posters on here have said for years we should be copying them. At Xmas if they aren’t challenging they sell a few which is what we did. Trouble is the rest of ours downed tools. Brentford must have a lot of bonuses etc written into the players contracts to keep them at it. Ehab is doing it on a shoestring compared to the bees owner tho.
Another hungry Tiger with bags of potential from what been seen so far. Potentially a huge season ahead for the lad.
At the end of the day I’m sure everyone wants what is best for the club both on the field and off it. If that means screwing a club for more coin for a saleable asset - then so be it.
Yup. The old man always maintained we screwed Mansfield for a certain player back in the 60s although it was a fair wadge at the time by all accounts.
Aaaaaah, but (I think) remember we did pay was it £5/6 million for Kevin Stewart as part of the deal...
