Great just what we need another one with a big reputation who may or may not make it.

I may have been a bit over the top .

What I mean is I would rather have a proven player of a certain quality than take a risk on somebody who early in their career was thought to be the next big thing and as of yet it hasn't worked out.

I don't think we can afford to take a risk in that position. However if he is PV's pick so be it the man is more qualified that I will ever be to pick a midfielder.

I 100% agree Badger, it was probably the way I read it in my own mind that made me chuckle!

Football, and unfortunately our club, has long been the victim of the 'get rich quick' mentality. I think substance over pie's in the sky is sometimes needed - hence the 'necessary commentary' albeit with a rib tickle!

Guehi, Andersen, Olise, Eze - Somewhat untested academy player, bloke who was relegated with Fulham, Championship winger and midfielder: all have been superb and astute acquisitions IMHO. I think there was more to their procurement than just playstation-esque guesswork and excitement. I would like to think should Aouar ever venture Selhurst bound it would be a well researched decision.

Also, before it's mentioned, Hughes isn't the worst signing in our history, as with JPM and Edouard, JIC anybody was considering pointing out other recent signings - they just have not worked out sensationally (yet)!

Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!

If he's cheap, doesn't want massive wages and knows he has to earn his place, I wouldn't be against it. He's not worth big money for us - too many ifs.

Red and Blue Army!
