Having said all sorts on what I think about him being overpriced primarily, and to an extent overhyped on here, it seems very much like he is not fit, and feels harsh to jump to judging him on that game.
Fuckinhell sounds like my new build house that lol!This competition could be a Godsend.. I had my suspicions he would drop off a cliff and age like milk.. but I feared it would happen 6/12 months after spanking 120million on him.
This should be viewed by the club as though you’re about to buy your first home and planning on stretching yourself.. the solicitors are messing about which is annoying.. then the 2009 financial crisis hits and you find out the property has subsidence and the attractive foliage in both the front and back garden is in fact Japanese Knotweed.
Moral of the story is you don’t buy that house.. you look at other options. You buy something on what it “can” offer you in future rather that what you thought it “could”.
If we spunk £100 quid on him at the moment it would be a waste of moneyBig fish in a small pond, peaked already. Made of glass and has never turned up on the big stage.
If we spunk 100+ mil on this plodder while Chelsea secure Haaland for a similar sum I think I'd chuck myself in the Mersey.
