    If you want to talk about money wasted look no further than Slimani. I've got a feeling that Silva will be the next one we take a huge hit on.

    When ever we spend money rarely do we get a good player

    Only big money signings to pay off have been Ndidi, Ulloa and Maguire

    Jury is still out on Iheanacho and Silva

    But Akinbiyi, Mills, Beckford, Kramaric, Slimani, Musa, Benalouane and Mendy have all been failures

    wouldn't say you paid big money for Benalouane and Mendy? They were quite cheap.

    Slimani is a giant failure but doesn't really fit your style. Musa and Kramaric were what? 15m? not massive money. Kramaric hasn't been too bad in the bundesliga, just never really got a chance.

    Musa i think could be great but for whatever reason hasn't really been used effectively

    Mendy was £13M which was the club record at the time

    Kramaric, Ulloa, Mendy, Musa, Slimani all broke our transfer records

    Regardless if they dont seem expensive now. They was at the time

    club records yes. Expensive? not really even for at the time. We are literally talking 2 seasons ago and inflation has not been that high. 13m then is probably around 18m now.
