Not anymore it doesn't. Have you seen the prices being quoted nowadays?!
Yes and better players will still be signed for less, you just have to bothered to scout.
Trouble is most PL teams clearly don't even bother.
In fairness to Ian it's not really an outlandish comment to make tbh, our collection of defenders over the years have been awful to say the very least.
That isn't realistic though, he's not coming here as " another option " for that and many other reasons we won't be interested in him. I have said this before but the striker we do buy won't be like Gayle thus ruling out the likes of Hernandez.
I have this feeling that if we buy a striker as we should it will be a different type than Gayle so i doubt we'll be interested in Hernandez.
Not saying i particularly think it's a great idea but i have the feeling it's what we will do.
