But if we can’t buy quality and simply just buy who’s available and end up spending £100m then that’s a bit silly. But its abit silly going to spend 100 mill on 5 average players when you can spend 100 mill on 5 quality players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some how we won 3-1 but the point is we signed a lot of players after the season had started such as Dublin and Merson. We were top by January. Not having players in by the first game is not the end of the world. True, but DS has been making a big point over the last couple of days that we can’t buy players like Douggie again for the first team if they are not fit enough.

Vive_La_Villa Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 (edited) Dougie didn’t have a proper pre-season because he didn’t have a club. He wasn’t allowed in the country without a work permit. This is not going to happen often. Edited August 26, 2020 by Vive_La_Villa 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh blimey, I’m saying there may be some positions where we’re down to 4th or 5th choice and in those situations I’d be wary about spending the money on those players simply because we can. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair point, but DS wouldn’t have made the point unless he thought there was a risk of something similar happening again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you know? DS will say what he has to say. Not too much and too not little. I wouldn’t take too much notice of manager / coach interviews.

I would have gone with I would prefer 3 quality players for 60m than 6 quality players for a 100m. Quality over quantity and all that. I get your point though.

RichiBoi11 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 If we're serious about signing Edouard now is the time to test Celtics resolve. They've just lost the Champions League revenue they would have hoped for this season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
