This isn't my argument, and I'm not really interested in it.

 

I was just irked by your reluctance to see any other point of view other than your own. 

How am I not seeing Anyone else's view?

We do not only avoid signing foreign players, and we do not spend significantly more on the English players that we do sign, and in fact typically only sign them when there is decent value to be had.

And so what exactly are you irked by? The fact that I don't agree with what people are saying because it is inaccurate?

It's not really about overpaying. It's about filling the required holes in the squad with a specific budget. If we need 5 players with 80mil, you might only get 2 english players for that. 

How do you know the club is not taking all this into consideration?

I have no trust if any of these rumours are true.  They are as grim as it comes and totally cement us as a 7-9 team

Probably more so about shopping abroad to make the most out of our limited budget?

Who have we overpaid for so far from these shores?

Honestly, I need a rest from this place. So many bad takes its frightening.

 

I'm always honest, I've never paid to much attention to Kilman, but I'm smart enough to know that when there is noise around a player being good, it's often accurate.

 

Put an I on the end of his name and say we are signing him for Napoli, the same people are making different comments. It's absolutely embarrassing.

It's rough man.

The season will come round soon enough, then we'll see what happens on the pitch.

Some absolute whoppers in here mind.... and yes it's because I disagree with your opinion.

 

Our record in the transfer market is fantastic, especially the players we've signed from these shores.

 

I don't want us to sign foreign players just to appease a few FM wannabees who think they have the foreign market sussed.

 

Eddie has forgotten more about football than most (including me) will ever even understand in their lifetime. That doesn't mean to say you aren't entitled to an opinion, it just means that you are likely wrong.

 

 

 

 

Ah, I think you're right. This is an FM thing isn't it.

Makes so much sense actually. Been wondering what this whole thing has been about.

Want to see their FM favourites from abroad being signed by the club. 

June 22nd and Eddie is ruining the transfers already! 

Wow ... really impressed he's passed that actually.

Echoing what a lot of people have said already; Kilman is very good but he doesn’t make too much sense for us unless he can play on the right?

Pulled up clips from last season, and was quite surprised at how often he was on the right side.

Not for the style of game Eddie likes. He'll continually break down.

He's quick and runs the channels and gets in behind. And also attacks crosses really well. Also adds more of a hold up game to our front line.

Fits in with how we play really well IMO.

U must be joking.

 

Kilman is a top top CB, he was the priority target for Napoli last season to replace the kim-min.

 

 

 

I don't think a lot of people watch teams outside of the top 6, which is fine.

But then they have such strong opinions about how shit the players at the other clubs are!

It's so so strange man.

Doesn't have the mobility. Injury prone. Shite.

Doesn't have the mobility?!

Someone's getting sent off this game.

Another dive there from Bernardo Silva.

Isn’t he best in a three man defence  or so I recall? Is Eddie looking to add some tactical variety with the possibility to go 5-3-2 (Isak and DCL?).

Looks comfortable in a centre back pairing or back three.

Does look like he can play on the right side too in a pairing.

No idea if this link is real though, seems a bit weird with the Anderson thing.

Leao is so weird man. So unnecessary.

Tosin and Kilman are both 27 this year and pretty experienced in the league.

Looks like this is the profile we are looking for to eventually take over from Schar to partner Botman.

Ronaldo is so awful man 

Screaming for the ball to be played forward for him in the lead up to that own goal, then stops his run just as it's played, and starts gesticulating angrily at Cancelo 

What a pair of Turkeys!

Kilman is proper underwhelming for me. You need at least one pacey CB to compete at top end. Can’t have a defence that’s all 3rd gear. 

Kilman isn't slow.

Nice goal. Portugal look a lot better today.

Portugal playing with more urgency. So much better.

Dont think you've countered anything mate... you're really just deferring to club judgment, which, fair play to you, is fine. But not everyone wants to cover their eyes when they see a bad deal

Yeah, okay. Fair.

You guys seem sure it's a bad deal. I'm not so sure it is at all.

Particularly because it also solves our FFP/PSR situation, which means keeping our best players.

Man ... feel for Anderson. Would play him ahead of Longstaff every single time. Damn.

I am not wound up in the slightest, simply pointing out that your patter is on par with those discussing football on Twitter, and that your attempts to stifle people giving their opinions with the threat of reminding everyone at a later date if they are wrong.

 

I won’t be saying any more on it and will be putting you on ignore.

I'm really not stifling anyone in the slightest.

Seems just because I counter what you've said, it annoys you.

Probably best to put me on in ignore in that case.
