LeeB Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 Seems to have had two relatively steady seasons as number 1 at Besiktas since his champions league mare, so its probably as decent a move as we could have made. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwclark2342 Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 I’m curious. Regardless of FFP, would you rather spend money like Chelsea or ManU this summer? Personally I’m very happy with our direction. Please feel free to move this post if it isn’t in the correct topic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure exactly why it's allowed though. would be a restriction of trade on the individual if you didn’t allow people without a contract a route to get one. one of the many legalities of the Bosman ruling and subsequent transfer windows etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I’m very happy with our direction. Please feel free to move this post if it isn’t in the correct topic. There's been something wild, reactive and a bit amateurish about Chelsea's spending in particular. It's like they're in for any big name that's available. In the end, the disruption that it all causes is likely to cancel out any gains from the individual talents that they've brought in, and they'll be no further on. I often think back to the time when Fergie took over Man Utd - a huge club, with huge expectations but they hadn't won the league in about 25 years. In 1991-92, they came very close to winning it, but were just pipped by Leeds. Afterwards, who did Fergie buy in the summer? - No-one. He gave the message to the squad that they were good enough. A few months into the season, he bought Cantona, and they went on to be Champions, but sometimes not doing anything takes more courage than splashing out. Fergie had his eye on the bigger picture. So yes, I prefer our way of going about things. Eddie is building a good, solid, team spirit and identity and any signings have to fit in with that development. A fan in the boardroom, like Shepherd, can easily do more harm than good with misplaced enthusiasm. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shak Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 Does sound like we'll see a lot more of this under Ashworth, signing top notch young prospects and hoping to bring them into the first team down the road. Sounds mint tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 Yup, the Prince Andrew approach is the way to go if we want to really become an elite club Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shak Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 Yeah ideally we'd have half a dozen of our first team squad be similar to where Anderson is now in terms of their level as prospects. Sign young players before they become stars, occasionally splash the cash on a big name we see someone who can really make a difference. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
