We were never keeping Stewart anyway

It was the right decision to sell him but signing the 4 strikers we did was hideous
Oh we've got a £10M bid including add ons for a player who we'll lose for nothing at the end of the season.
Shall we sell him or keep him even though he's injured for another couple of months at least to help bring the young lads on (no guarantee it will help anyway).
Gooch says keep Stewart! Who says footballers are thick
We might as well bring an experienced striker in like Quinn or Sheringham to coach the kids. We get £10M for Stewart and pay them a grand a week.

Somebody needs to inform the owner/speakman before we end up back in league 1

The problem was not selling him it was replacing him with 4 which arent ready (3 absolutely nowhere near)Oh we've got a £10M bid including add ons for a player who we'll lose for nothing at the end of the season.

Going off his responses in the minutes from RAWA he’s learned nothing and it will be the same next year.

The Situation
Striker
Gooch is a canny lad and has made for himself a far better career than he probably should have due to his effort and determination, but if we are honest there is no club with Gooch starting regular games that is going to get promoted from this division and he wouldn't have played much at all only for an njury crisis.
He is a poor full back who has been tortured against average players in this league when he has played there, and his best position is on the wing where I have about as much chance of playing games for SAFC as he did.
It was the right decision to sell him.
Then he suggests we should have kept a £10m asset who has played a total of 17 minutes in the last 64 Championship games by the time the season finishes.
I like Gooch but there's a hint of sour grapes in that piece and also a bit of idiocy at best when it comes to the Stewart comment.

Aouchiche has played over 70 games at a far better level than the Championship to be fair.
He has also shown enough in flashes he has been given to have been given a lot more game time IMO.
There's myth on here that you can't be young and experienced which isn't the case.
Aouchiche is probably not the best example but if for example you have a 21 year old in your squad with 100 first team appearances at Championship level and a 30 year old with 10, who would you deem to be more experienced?
I agree but Gooch wasn't saying that. He was saying we should have kept Stewart which is rank stupidity.
Stoke signing him wasn't great business to be fair.

Well said. These pros know the dressing room and know the importance of experience. Pity those running the show don't.

Thing is though. If they've nothing to.learn from they've got to be that much better. The United 92 team had plenty of experience to teach the young players who when they were ready stepped up. They're being asked to step up too early.
