Buying players when they're bad

I was never a perm or a tips man.

We'll see how Delap's career goes. I think it will go down the pan. Tips incoming.

He's only played 4 games man šŸ˜‚

4 league games. Heā€™s played 9 in all competitions.

And the obligation is at 10

Not if they're priced above their worth, which is the case for English players.

Of course. But weā€™re capped at 17 non home grown players.

Not had much variation in hair cuts, either.

Also a really plain and simple hair cut, not like heā€™s got anything weird or out there.

Oh I know. We wonā€™t get him. But itā€™s a lazy mantra that all relegated players are bad

Whilst I agree itā€™s lazy thereā€™s very few relegated players Iā€™d want that weā€™d have a chance of getting. The ones that we would be linked with arenā€™t going to be the likes of Fernandes, know for a fact agents will use us to get their clients deals elsewhere though.

Oh, I've done all the hairstyles and paying for it now.

If you think about it though, Delap's injury had a massive positive impact on our season.

If Chelsea hadn't recalled Guiu we wouldn't have signed Brobbey. Can't see him having the same impact that Brian has had.

If he was any good they'd pay up. He's been shite that's why they don't want to pay as he's just not worth it.

That is so incorrect and there could be a number of reasons they donā€™t want to sign him. Has geertruida been shite for us and thatā€™s why weā€™re not signing him ?

Theyā€™ve decided heā€™s not worth Ā£35m

That doesnā€™t mean heā€™s shite.

Or you could say

ā€œoh I didnā€™t know it was all competitions, I got that wrongā€

Nah heā€™s been shite and probably said to Emery heā€™s glad he doesnā€™t have to play so he can get more haircuts and tattoos.
 
Itā€™s the mentality, could have a bad season but if the mentality is there you know they could turn it round being at another team. Itā€™s key to how we recruit imo

It's 10 league games.

He's only been picked 4 times on merit not because of clauses.

I don't expect you to apologise. It's a messageboard, unimportant therefore I couldn't give a shit šŸ˜‚

Buying players that are undervalued is absolutely the right idea.

Elliott is a perfect example.

We also need to ignore the stupid ā€œwe should never sign relegated playersā€ mantra. Fernandes of West Ham would be a great buy

He's linked with a Ā£50 mil move to Man U though.

The obligation for Villa to buy Elliot was Ā£35 mil as well.

So neither really fit into the point of this thread.
