So you say, but very much still in question....
Seeing as (cont. below):
I'm using my own judgement based on years of what I've seen from ENIC, nothing wrong with that.
You used that article to vindicate your sage suspicions, yet simultaneously won't give credence to the parts that actually dispute your narrative.
Esp. with regard to your assertions about Conte's lack of interest in Traore or any notion that Lamptey is a "must have" for him.
Provide some form of evidence that Conte doesn't want Traore and/or that Lamptey is Conte's #1 choice then perhaps your assertions may start to accumulate substance.... Until then your "I knew it" stance is hollow.
I thought VDV was a great player for us and should never have left, we couldn't afford 30 million but if we had it I would say yeah get him still. Better than the likes of Soldado, Janssen, lamela, Paulinho. 8 million was a price we could afford.
Looking past the fact that VDV pre-dates all those players (both economically and recruitment-wise)....... (cont. below)
Yeah I do, you were the one that bought up the concerns about his injuries.
What you're saying here is that in BOTH cases (VDV or Lamptey) you would pay no heed to a player's injury history and just splash top whack on a player without a second though?
I guess we're cut from different cloth
The cheek of your take here though is that you no doubt complain about x or y players being sick-notes like the rest of us do....... In fact you even mention Lamela when building your point about VDV despite the fact that the primary issue during Erik's tenure was him being injury prone!!!
