I think the other PL clubs are hesitant to sell to us for competitive reasons and we're hesitant to pay the PL tax and the competition tax that comes with dealing with other PL clubs, generally. We seem to have had the scouting infrastructure a few years ago to find players with high ceilings and bring them in from the continent, I don't understand why that went away. Was it entirely Ashworth? If so then we need to find another Ashworth type to sit in that role. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted August 27, 2025 Share Posted August 27, 2025 Nothing to suggest he’s worth north of £40m really. £75m is absurd, even in this desperate context. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Striker improve until their physical attributes start to regress. Depends on the player but at the earliest 30 is normally the prime. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since the takeover we've consistently bought a mix of both domestic and overseas players And if you believe "Twatter links" we've also gone after a mix of domestic and overseas players this summer This theory that we only scout and attempt to buy PL proven just isn't true But people on here feel that PL proven is dull and expensive, whereas a lesser known player from an overseas club gives the wannabe scouts on here a stiffy And yes, to answer your question, a top class DoF would be a great asset Edited August 27, 2025 by bobbydazzla Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
