Not re-enforcing your team could ruin your season, re-enforcing with the wrong players could ruin the whole rebuild.
It seems like mistakes from the banter era have not been learned or maybe a lot of you are just too young.
Just go back 2 summers ago, Tielemans, Danilo, Asensio, Pino, Jonathan David, Vlahovic. We missed bullets.
Stop throwing out random names that are in a purple patch, think about how this player would fit our playstyle, what role/position they would fit into and how they would complement our current batch of players.
A lot of those I don’t think we genuinely wanted
I think they ticked some boxes so we sent some scouts round and deemed a few of those not good enough
In Pino’s case it seemed like agent talk for sure
Personally, I didn’t want any of those players at the time and the only one this sub was really clamouring for was Vlahovic
Would have been happy with Vlah bit for his agents ties to the mafia.
Still think we need a Vlah type.
We seemingly pushed hard for Vlahovic. All the others we could have got apart from maybe Asensio but we chose not to
Reinforcing*
I actually debated it lmao then said fuck it and went with my gut.
Just checked now and it’s enforce not inforce but when we add the “re” then reenforce is wrong and reinforce is correct.
Did we even bid for pino, J david, tielemans, Danilo or asensio?
Yes and no for some.
For some we barely had a sniff or even the money to bid to that amount.
Vlahovic pretty much used us as bait to get move to Juve.
