Investment and judgement
Posted by Russy on 9/11/2024, 14:44:29
No team investment in the summer and then £10 mil on a centre back that has made our defence worst than ever
It wasn't £10m as we've discussed many times but, the Summer window was bad. RE recruited for his Guardiola style which restricts flexibility, incoming prices went up, loan prices and conditions weren't favourable and we didn't know who was going - Menghi didn't go to Slovenia because he thought he was off, then didn't play QPR home for the same reason and hasn't looked interested at all this season.
Say we signed McGuiness for an upfront fee of 5m on a 4 year contract, that works out as 1.25m per season. 1m for a player per season sounds probably about right for the Championship. I appreciate we don't get resale value, but not sure we will on McGuiness either right now.
As Sandgrounder alludes to below, if the market doesn't change, what's the alternative? Get left behind?
Don’t agree with a commitment to play a certain number of games, but if that’s the market value for loan fees then it is what it is. Rak-Sakyi for £1M for the season is better value that McGuinness for 6x that. There have been a lot of successful loans in the championship this season, if that’s not part of our transfer model we will get left behind.
The board did get players in though. And most people seem to think player for player they are a lot better than the team that won promotion ,so the current performance is not good enough
