Si Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 It's me - realist. Douglas said we basically favour the cheaper. Still £7m though, cant grumble at that, its a fair amount for a left back. once you convert it into pounds it's £200,000 more than we got for enrique. however i'm sure the reports today have been 6.8m? which is £26,000 more. Jose had only a year left, where as Pieters has longer, i think the value for either of them will be determined by how well Pieters does, we all know how well Jose did, if Pieters does better then £7m will be seen as cheap, time will tell Pieters won't do better than Jose, Jose was quality BUT as long as Pieters is a good left back that will do, not many left backs out there better than Jose in anyways How do you know he wont do better ? I suspect your right but you just never know, its all about if our football suits Pieters and if it does, then maybe just maybe he could turn out to be a better player. He wont do better Again how do you know that, you dont and cant, time will tell but its impossible to say he definitely wont. Its not. You look at all of the top left backs in the league and they all have similar attributes: Glichy Cole Baines Evra Jose All quick (barring Baines), all mobile. Pieters is neither He will flop imho Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wont do better Again how do you know that, you dont and cant, time will tell but its impossible to say he definitely wont. Its not. You look at all of the top left backs in the league and they all have similar attributes: Glichy Cole Baines Evra Jose All quick (barring Baines), all mobile. Pieters is neither He will flop imho You have to remember that we are a top 10 team at best currently and in Enrique we had one of the best left backs in the league (europe?) and now he is with one of the top 5 teams arguably. only Baines out of the players you mentioned doesn't play for a current top 5 team. So if your compare Pieters with the left backs from the teams around us its a little bit more realistic. Anyone we buy unless we really splashed the cash and for sum reason they wanted to come are not going to be as good as Jose was for us, at least not at first which was always going to be a problem because people will get on the new LB's back straight away cus he wont do the things Jose did.
