Exactly why I want to wait until next summer and spend a similar amount on a box to box midfield player.
Like you said, you get what you pay for.
Spot on. And at 20,22 & 25 Rice, Diop & Haller have still to reach their peak. Throw Anderson , Lanzini (both 26) and Fornals (23) into the mix and the future looks reasonably bright.
Of course there's always an IF. And that is keeping them. European qualification is an absolute must imo. If not this season then next. If we don't achieve that I fear there could be an exodus of the top talent.
Yes mate...reason why we can never really attract the players we want here,and TBH it's only
the Olympic stadium,Peller,and the wages we pay attracting them at all at the moment..
we'll be a stepping stone club we don't start getting the top 6/7 finishes..
Gonna be a defining couple of seasons coming up.
I'd chuck Declan in there as well as a potential leaver ..if we keep knocking around the mid/lower
reaches of the Premier next couple of seasons...
But as hopeful as I've ever been really.....but a lot depends on how good Wolves,Everton,Leicester
are this year..if they edge us again like last year....well...be disappointing say the least.
Losing to wolves twice last year was a big hit...won just one of those,we're in Europe,their not,
fine lines at times..
