That’s incredibly harsh but they must feel they needed to move for Rooney if he was available. Would be funny if they plummeted like. Can only have Brewcy lined up for a triumphant return as he guides them from promotion favourites with great team harmony to relegation candidates in record time, with secret moles around every corner waiting to sabotage him as he tells the media “what do you expect, we’re Birmingham City” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCormick Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 1 hour ago, The College Dropout said: The Bournemouth transfer approach doesn't work imo. Not to sound all Brexity but too young, too little English football experience. Unfortunately (with all due respect to them) the smaller clubs can’t really afford anything resembling a quality English player nowadays. We get lambasted for “overpaying” for British players but it’s been a cornerstone of our success. I do hope we mix it up more with players from the French league though. Seem to always find success when they come to PL. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coastie Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 Before the season started I predicted Ange would do well at Spurs. So it's proved but I do think he's had a bit of luck so far. MUtd missed several sitters; Arsenal gifted them two goals; and the whole Liverpool debacle. I still think they'll be top 4 or 5 but that luck can't continue. Might get in some Jan reinforcements. He's definitely changed the club in a very short time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seem to always find success when they come to PL. Palace did it with their squad refresh. Spent their money on mostly English talent and players with experience in English football. Eze, Olise, Guehi, Anderson, Gallagher on loan. The crown jewels came from the Championship. They adapt much faster to the PL. Can take the rough and tumble.

McCormick Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 (edited) It was a good strategy for smaller teams a few years ago when Championship players were undervalued. Nowadays the best young English players in the Championship are on loan from the bigger clubs; we’ve seen with Gibbs-White and -albeit not in the championship- Lewis Hall recently that clubs don’t let their young English talents go cheaply anymore. I’m sure there some gems and bargains to be had still, but they’re not as prevalent as before. Completely agree though that a young player performing well in the Championship is likely to be a hit in the PL.

Craig Dawson and Cheikhou Kouyaté types are under-rated in a relegation scrap too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
