Insurrectionist posted:How is Bournemouth's wage bill so high when their players are 40% garbage signings for £15 - £20 million that couldn't hack it in other PL clubs and 60% journeymen who came up with them from Championship and below? I'm shaking my head at the suggestion that £15-20m isn't big (big) money.

Jippa posted:For people that actually watch the championship. What sort of level is ollie watkins? He was a bit average as an attacking midfielder in previous seasons but has had a Michu-like emergence playing as a 9 after they lost Maupay. Scored a lot of goals but when you watch them there's a lot of extremely Championship defending happening, plenty of tap-ins from 5 yards with no defender within a mile. Benrahma's been their key danger man, Watkins just scores the goals. Good enough to step up and try his hand in the PL, but he's no obvious superstar bargain at £18m. He's Brewster but bigger, stronger, faster and far more useful in build up play. Also extremely dirty which Championship refs ignore.

Swansea have signed Korey Smith, a guy Bristol City thought was too crocked to give a new contract to. He's a midfielder that doesn't score, assist, tackle, or even walk ~6 months of the year.

You don't solve "homegrown quota issues" by signing a poo poo backup keeper who will never play. Might as well register a kid from the academy for that job. Or leave the spot blank.

goddamnedtwisto posted:He was good in his first season with us, too, but then defenders twigged all they have to do is show him outside and he's completely powerless. Seriously there's a load of clips of him doing rabonas because he is the most right-footed player to have ever played on the left wing (and yet somehow he looks even more useless in the centre or on the right). I wonder if anyone collects stats on "Just runs straight into a fullback" because I'm certain he'd be a world leader in that at least. Is he related to Wayne Routledge?

Confirmed as new director of football operations at Spurs. Done an okay job at whatever it is chairmen spend their days doing, but wouldn't put hiring Steve Cooper in the pros column. Been awful to watch and only stumbled into the playoffs due to coronavirus and Forest's spectacular bottle job.

Brewster can score goals but not a lot else even at Championship level. Liverpool have done an amazing job hyping up some bang average players over the last few years. Just a shame Bournemouth weren't still in the PL to get a bidding war going. Could have got £50m.

Bundy posted:No, Ozil is one of the workers being paid a fair wage that the super rich owners asked to take a pay cut so that profits were harmed less by keeping staff on. Then they let staff go anyway. Your ire should be for the owners of the club, not those employed by it. But what if we gave massive companies even more money, surely then they would let it trickle down to the working class???
