I always get confused when posters lob accusations of wumming at
@Marvin. A lot of his opinions aren't even controversial. He just opines on what he believes. And even when I disagree, they are often well thought through.
1. Questions of fact here:a Marvin when did Pep say we weren't interested in Sanchez?
2. There is nothing controversial about Marvin suggesting we should be buying players who would hit their peaks at City. FFS! That's what we do most of the time anyway.
3. It is also common sense decision to buy based on long-term needs rather than short term injury concern. That too is hardly controversial.
4. It's also true Sanchez hasn't been as good this season as prior seasons. This isn't controversial either.
That said I disagree with Marvin's conclusion that the above proves Sanchez is declining. I think there is a higher likelihood that the disappointment from failing to move, having played non-stop for 24 months, and the general unrest about his want-away-ism probably all played a role in his dropped performance. And this view is supported by the sudden surge in his performances the last month.
So while I disagree with Marvin conclusion, I find nothing wrong with his analytical process. It's actually refreshing.
