Unless you pay a premium I agree.
That’s under normal circumstances though. This window when nobody has money, maybe things loosen up a bit.
Jan is a crap month to invest, total opportunist window.

Yes and I’m starting to wonder if the FFP issues meant there was an opportunity that we’ve missed
Jesus christ, give it a rest.
You were telling us you weren't angry earlier, yet you're still going on about a kids decision an hour later.
Doesn't seem like it.
Can't think of anyone we missed out on that we desperately needed.
In fairness neither of us would have a clue what we have missed out on. The club might not even know because they weren’t asking and looking. We don’t know.

Probably about what Son makes. Maybe even a touch more.
I guess if we did make a move for a big fish it would have probably been reported.

Would he be guaranteed anything at Brentford? He would have to compete for a start with Mbuemo and Wissa wouldn't he? Unless they are going full Ossie with their selection.There is NO way we could or should be guaranteeing playing time to an 18 year old.
So its a deal we cannot and should not do. Sad but there we are
Ok but we should be looking to buy them this window. Time is running down I dont think we'll buy anyone else.I agree they are the types of signings we should be looking at as we struggle to compete when a player becomes the finished article.
On the flip side he will not be the only very good teenager we are looking at. There will be others and we might decide another is either better suited or has more of what we need.
If as reported there was an issue over game time then we cannot and should not be guaranteeing anyone game time. Its down to your hard work and play and how you fit into the team.
