    That's no reason not to go back there. We've signed dumplings from all over the world. That's down to awful scouting and recruitment, not the league we're signing them from.

    The combined cost of the dumplings have been 5m~.

    A pittance.. and even with Iwata, he's went on to show he's a great player in another system.

    I would have thought the three Japanese players who didn't make it here (Yuki, Ideguchi, Iwata) would be about £1.7m. Quite little really and sure we've made a profit on all 3 transfer fee wise.

    Hopefully board signing few projects players and two 11 million players like last summer.
    Don’t understand why club wants pay government so much tax instead investing it in squad. We can afford to do with huge amount money in bank

    It's good that we've had a proper first-team signing before the end of June. Of course, we need to get in as many as possible before the qualifiers.

    We definitely need a powerful CDM this window. Don't want to see us go another season in the Champions League without a powerful, pacy defensive midfielder.

    Someone like Diawara would be ideal.

    That argument that player x will be * because he played in the same league as player y is genuinely mental, same as the argument that signing players of the same nationality will have the same result.

    He has a history of that thought process. Said we shouldn't sign Miller because he's from Motherwell.

    Just the Turkish guy and a rumoured French DM. Nothing too concrete yet.

    Where and when did I say that ? I would be interested to know.

    You should get your facts right, instead of making it up as you go along.
    I do recall saying I don't think Miller is what we need and too slow.

    My facts are right. :50:

    Just one of many terrible opinions you’ve posted. A complete lack of logic.

    Flimsy.:BR1:

    The initial comparison was with Turnbull not Motherwell, the same would apply to any team we got sold a dud from.
    My logic was bang on. Turnbull was a dud, and if you want to risk signing another dud, then by all means march on.

    I could just as easily say you post a lot of terrible opinions too, but I won't embarrass you.:giggle1:

    You’re doing a fine job of embarrassing yourself with the plethora of * you talk. Your qualifier that Miller might be a dud was because he also came from Motherwell, like Turnbull (who wasn’t a dud).

    Accused me of making things up then I prove you wrong and you try to double down. You are so * dumb. :56:
