You seem to be saying we should be wary of signing foreign players becuase one didn't work out. Yet we have a whole list of ones that did Older people will remember us signing a pair of Chinese players that couldn't speak a word of English yet they worked out well for us. Suggesting that we shouldn't buy someone because he's Spanish is a daft response when the Premiership is littered with foreign players (and managers) that have little or no English

If we bought 2 players from Spain, that know each other it's easy for them to settle. It's a risk of a small budget, maybe if we bought 2 players from Barca it might make munir settle.

All for buying two players from Barca ! Purring at the thought of being a finishing school for Ajax and Barca players...

At £15m my gut said it was a good buy. €25m is a fair whack more and to be fair we'd probably be better off spending it elsewhere. Maybe a bid of £17m would test there resolve. Think that's about €20m? Probably to much though. Rather we play RLC up top and spend the money on CB and WBacks. And a keeper!
