We are much better at signing younger up and coming cheaper players rather than so called established expensive players. Son, bale, modric, etc Vs ndombele, Bentley, sissoko...
Well, let‘s hope we buck the trend with Romero.

Son was older and more experienced than Ndombele when we bought him. Modric was roughly the same age and experience as Bentley.We are much better at signing younger up and coming cheaper players rather than so called established expensive players.

You have a thing about Super Jan Mrs P?But we mustn't forget Super Jan's assist at the start of that run...........hehehehehe
That is the best individual goal you will ever see.seeing that goal against burnley still gives me goosebumps.
My fav is the home qf vs citeh…Love that video. It's epic.
Guilty, as chargedYou have a thing about Super Jan Mrs P?
This currently the only player thread with no negativity?
Can't have that.
I don't like his goal celebrations. Sell! £2million.
Get him gone.
Naw Lucas will be taking Harry’s spot in the front three more often than you think. Deep down, Nuno knows we are better off with a front three of Berg/Son/Lucas in many situations.Football is so cruel, metaphor for life really.
Just as you turn 29 and reach your prime, in comes a young upstart (Bryan Gil) with talent and energy to burn (remember when that was me?) to threaten that comfortable top perch both earned and deserved but ever so tenuous.
I don’t think Son liked being substituted, and he was bitching about something at the end of the game. The way he talks about wanting to go like this for years to come, he knows nothing’s guaranteed, but here comes Nuno throwing it down - unlike Harry, your spot on the perch isn’t quite so secure Sonny, so better get improving.
Gil does look promising and I have a feeling we will see many more of these substitutions if not outright usurping if roles of Gil starts to get some goals in. Will be really interesting to see how Nuno manages nurturing a young talent on one hand but not wasting a proven one in Son.

Before Gil takes over Son, he needs to prove he can produce more than Son, that is 3rd in PL in terms of goals and 4th in terms of assists. If he manages produce over that, I agree he should take over Son, but I don't think he can do anything like that in near future.
Gil may take Bergwijn or Dele's spot, if he shows he can compete against PL teams and produce more than them, but not Son, he hasn't proved anything like Son.
