bowlingcrofty Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 We should've went for lower targets if we couldn't get our first choices in, imo. We should've been looking at Ryan Fraser, Isaac Hayden and Matt Targett for example. If we'd signed those three, they'd would've done a great job for us as second choices and definitely wouldn't have ended up hanging around too long costing us money on long-term contracts and stopping us from pursuing higher quality players later.

There are absolutely no players in the world in between the qualities of Marc Guehi and Ryan Fraser. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are three perfect examples of players who were signed because they were 'decent signings'. In the situation we're in, where we need to improve our first team, not just fill up the squad, and where we have limited room for manoeuvre because of arbitrary financial rules, signing nobody is preferable to blobbing money on a gamble that backfires and has you bogged down financially for years afterwards.

What changed is that we now have a good first team so signing improvements is much more difficult. The post-takeover equivalents would be better players, obviously, but still would potentially leave us with the same problem. I don't think it's a difficult concept, is it?

You’ve named 3 shit players. There’s a reason we can’t shift them. Most other teams don’t really seem to have that issue. ashley lumbered the club with shit players on long overpaid contracts. every club in the league signs squad players. Even Man City.
