We have posters on here claiming we have to de-clutter the squad before we can buy CB's. We've gone on a tour having not addressed the CB problem.
We were allegedly close to getting VDV and considering Tapsoba. But if the rumour mill is to be believed we are reluctant to meet the asking price on either.

Get the important things resolved first rather than wasting the dwindling time on a cheap prospect.

If nothing else it will improve the optics.
So you're saying that we shouldn't have signed Maddison and Solomon when we did, but wait until we signed the CBs first, since those were out first priority? I'm trying really hard not to be condescending, but do you even know how transfers work? No team gets their transfers done in the order that they would like, no matter how much money they have, and there are numerous reasons for that, which have been enumerated ad nauseam by myself and other posters.

So you can poopoo our signing of a "cheap prospect" all you want, but when an opportunity presents itself you don't put it at the end of the list and hope it's still there when you're done with your main priorities. You jump at it and keep working on your main priorities at the same time. It's the "walking and chewing gum" concept.
