Why is this fraudster making attacking football claims? The same guy who wanted to turn the most skilled footballer in our history into a left back?

If you go back through each season's top scorers that's what I would call hindsight. People saying you cant get value on strikers? Im saying every season someone has with an average bum up front. Its not impossible. -

Its not hindsight, its just good scouting and taking chances. Go back through each seasons top scorers, theres a buch of cloggers every season getting over 10 goals. Im sure its achievable without needing to compare it to an Ashley model. Until we get taken over and we are run like Man City we cant walk around with our heads in the clouds, its just pointless. -

That Richarlson as you say. He's one there though,and in a side that isnt extreme? Its possible. Also if you are afraid to take risks loans or look for out of contracts and offer higher signing on fees and wages, there are options out there. I spoke to a chap today whos wife is from Huddersfield knows the club well, he said theres no way we would struggle to compete financially with them. So im guessing Rafa is just sounding off again in the media to wind up fat man. Yeah he is but I mean thats one and its not common for it to happen. Pay peanuts get monkeys basically. They stuck gold with him but I doubt we would have even paid his transfer fee at 11.2m, and thats discounting wages. Troy Deeny is on 100k a week at watford I wouldnt say its rare. I think it probably happens once a season at least. That Troy Deeney bit, im not buying that. No chance he is on 100k Genuinely couldn't believe it myself but: http://sillyseason.com/salary/watford-fc-players-salaries-101455/ http://www.watfordobserver.co.uk/news/15100638.Highest_paid_Watford_player_earns_as_much_as_Harry_Kane_or_Jamie_Vardy/ https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/2835441/premier-league-player-wages-manchester-united-chelsea-arsenal-spending/ I knew it would be that link, but seriously look at ours: http://sillyseason.com/salary/newcastle-united-players-salaries-99593/ Jonjo Shelvey came here to earn 25k a week? That site are talking shite. And Joselu is on 50k Merino only 20k. I read in the telegraph Deeney agreed to double his 25k a week wages to 50k. Im not arguing you are right or wrong, but the info is really in the clubs books, papers sites etc speculation on what a lad earns are far fetched. I looked at last seasons top scorers, there are some right bums in there hitting over 10 goals. Vokes 19th highest scored 10. Josh king did alright. -

Insightful stuff! You ok Hun? 20m in this transfer window, in Jan, for this squad. The current rate players are going for, double that and clubs reluctant to sell. We need a 15 goal st, a number 10 and a LB. We wont get anywhere near that for that money I get what you're saying but there are clubs looking to offload players for match fitness etc. Again, I point to Ings - he might turn out to be shit but from what's being reported he's available for loan, and even with one leg he's better than Joselu. If Rafa is drawing up a list, which he says he is, you can take it from that there are players available. January is the last opportunity for teams to cash in on players who are out of contract in the summer as well. There's always something that can be done but I agree with you, we're unlikely to sign a world beater for £20m. That said, Mahrez only cost Leicester £500k. Thats interesting. We both named players that cost fuck all and both have premier league winners medals. And another Kante think they paid 4m. Its about good scouting and giving players a chance. The same group who nearly got relegated would have totally devalued and then ran amock the following season, Pumping their values through the roof. If this market is out of control its because teams are stupid enough to allow it. There will come a moment where teams all have 35 players out on loan like Chelsea, because nobody will be ripped off for overinflated agent fees, transfer fees, and wages. -

Why don't the top clubs buy strikers for £1.5m then? It would seem a bit daft to waste £50m on an expensive prima donna when you could by 15 players for that. Because they can afford to, so it doesnt matter. The cost of the market simply isnt the argument. ( they could spunk millions on a top striker with no return, ala Carroll, Bony, Torres when at Chelsea. Basing a cost on how many goals a striker will return is an unkown unless they are obvious pedigree and reputation, ie international players cost more we know that. Its the pretending a 20m striker has an average goal ratio based on his price thats a laugh. -

Rafa mentioned the cost of particular players which we couldn't compete to purchase due to their transfer fees and wages which other teams like Huddersfield and Brighton were willing to pay. This seems to have started this off. So does that mean those players we couldnt compete to sign that they did will go on to hit 15 - 20 goals. Its pure shit. -

Why have people started basing how many goals a striker can guarantee on 5m 10m 20m etc being like between 5-10 goals in the premier league. Didn't mitro get 9 in his debut prem season and he was shite and didnt play a full season. Its all utter bollox. A cheap investment could do equally as well as a 60m striker, depending on hitting form and simply adjusting to changes quickly or pure luck etc etc. This price to goals thing is a load of shit for me. Obviously Aguero etc you would expect to be good given his reputation. But nobody would have expected Keane to be the striker he is to start with. Everyone has to start somewhere. Im sure Vardy was like 1.5m from Fleetwood. -
Rotated straight out the exit door where the key rotates locking him out - the key then melted down so it can never be unlocked. fucks sake. To the point.

Best buddies with Jamaal, I could imagine Lacelles probably saying to him go ask to play in the reserves get fit and show your committed and the gaffer will pick you.

Im beginning to wonder if Rafa is being defiant now, and deliberately using Joselu because the club chose to bring him in instead of getting the Tammy deal done. Like an up yours! And hes now saying that type of thing in the press. -

So if it comes down to chances not taken and we get a few and its Joselu missing them, where does everyone fair on Rafa continuing to give him game time? -
Ahem, Manquillo!

Seems the message over and over was try and not complain and back what we have in players that are here. Its difficult to watch some players ie Joselu and Manquillo though and just keep saying to yourself, Ah its ok it is what it is ?
