    Blueteeth
    Sub Genius got a reaction from Blueteeth in Is that our spending completed for this window?   
    This seems to have been the main focus of the summer - improve the overall quality of the squad.
    That was definitely needed, but we still look short of a couple of better quality players to significantly elevate the quality of whatever starting eleven we choose to stick on the park.

    Time will tell, but I couldn’t really get my head around why we were stockpiling so many wide players without seemingly adding significantly better quality.
    Maybe it’s still to come, but I have my doubts.

    Sub Genius got a reaction from Junior Soprano in Borna   
    The fact he got hooked for Halliday in a game he really should have strolled says a lot.

    Sub Genius got a reaction from ger4life_1872 in Alfredo has rejected 10million pounds per year move to China   
    I think we’d all rather have Alfie than McBurnie, but the latter is going for £20m because he plays in a more lucrative league.
    It’s like buying a house.
    You get far less for your money the more expensive the area.

    Cedrick
    Sub Genius got a reaction from Cedrick in Borna Barisic   
    I’m not going to fight the guy’s corner with any great conviction - he just hasn’t done it for us on any level yet, and, international rep not withstanding, he may never do so - but he’s clearly a decent footballer and with the right coaching and management could yet become a player for us.
    To give you a pertinent example from the past: Fernando Ricksen.
    International caps for what was a superb Dutch team at the time, but looked an absolute bombscare for us.
    Almost everyone wanted him punted, yet eventually he came good.
    Lightning may not strike twice, but I wouldn’t write Barisic off just yet.
