The ‘mentor for Delap and Ohio’ excuse was used for Sharp. It was bollocks then and bollocks now. It had **** all impact.
Isn’t it the coaches’ jobs to improve the wingers at the club anyway?
How on earth can you know what impact it had? Ohio improved a lot over that time. Maybe he learned a lot from Sharp, or maybe not.
I can understand having reservations over the transfer but it's not objectively bad as you're making out.
