Be nice to start by signing English players.Always worth repeating when players like Goto get linked/signed. We ABSOLUTELY should be buying young players with high potential. It’s a key part of how a top club should be operating. Otherwise you end up having to spend 40-70mil on Brighton stars or Barca rejects in every position.
BUT they need to be accompanied by signing top tier established quality (60-100mil). As well as youth through the ranks. Sadly our scouts and management are just absolutely shit at getting the balance right/ splashing the cash for the big lads.
So, if we sign Goto, I fully hope he kicks on and becomes a star. Good luck to him. If he doesn’t then it should be no biggie - onto the next one.
You know, being an English club playing in the English Premier League.
