thabucks Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 (edited) The way we do our business - clandestine, we will no doubt ever know if we went for Jhon Duran say if we never signed him… It’s all too easy to criticise & moan why we didn’t sign player XYZ afterwards based on nothing but personal opinion. We are a closed book ruled by NDA’s s when it comes to transfers, so you can never know who we move bid for until the last minute/done.

Just 19 years old. Go on Lange pull the deal off I noticed he's picked up an abnormally large amount of yellow cards throughout his career. Already two red cards to his name and he's only 19.

You could probably add luiz too Martinez, Cash, McGinn, Luiz, Kamara, would all be a profit. Some would be around the same value at least (Mings, Konsa) Questionable on Digne, Ings and Emi B I guess, but could see Emi improving, Ings still being worth it to a team who need a striker. Digne hasnt looked great recently. The above + Ramsey was our starting 11 for the last game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digne hasnt looked great recently. The above + Ramsey was our starting 11 for the last game. There is pretty much no chance of us ever selling Digne or Ings for what we purchased them for. Even finding a buyer would be difficult as only the top clubs would be willing to pay them the wages they are currently on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Konsa definitely but Mings would probably go for about the same I think. I suspect we wanted to sell him last summer because his value is on the wane.

This isn’t the same Ismaila Sarr from 3 years ago where he originally got his hype.Watford fans were snapping our hands of for that fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thejoker Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 It was always a stupid move for his career. At best he’s going to be loaned out consistently. If it was a football decision then he would have stayed here imho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
