This year we have signed
Soro £2m - never seen
Klimala £3.5m - rarely seen
Barkas £4.5m - binned
Turnbull £3.5m - never seen
Ajeti £5m - rarely seen
Duffy £2m loan fee - binned
over £20m for players the manager doesn't trust/play
only Laxalt and Elyounoussi on loan can be seen as a moderate success
Who is signing the players? Who decides which positions need strengthened? We've needed a left sided centre half for over a year, still none. We've needed to replace the captain for over a year, a procession of players signed and never given a chance. We have no wingers other than Forrest and the ever injured Johnston. We seem to have abandoned the idea, which worked, of signing young talented players, develop and sell on in 2 years. The latter is probably due to the manager being incapable of developing players, no one has improved in the 18 months since he returned, and their performances are increasingly getting worse.
We can for get £30m for Eddy, £20m for Ajer, £10+ for Christie or Ntcham, their transfer value is plummeting by the week and we'll be lucky to get half of what we would have got this summer.
