Just reading Vydra 11mil plus wages (now 30k/week) . I know I hate myself for saying it but What would you get Europe/S America for that sort of money. Don't get me wrong if buying Vydra guarantees promotion (or even play offs) then I would say go for it but I do not want finances stretched on what is, always, a gamble. Look what happened the last time we gambled and also the trouble some teams now find themselves in. Yes I know I sound like a wimp but I believe in Radrizzanis 5 year plan and feel that he is being pressured for instant success into trying to buy it, when we have seen historically that mostly it just does not work. All I am saying is that somewhere between Vydra and Mbakogu is the answer.

You have to gamble or stay in the same place, football is a gamble, you have to complete with other teams otherwise what’s the point also what’s the point of paying two million on a manager if he can’t or doesn’t get given the tools to do the job,

Vydra no gamble wanted him a couple of seasons ago, prolific proven goal scorer, be devastating with Saiz.

Still not convinced of this particular finanacial gamble merely saying what everyone acknowledges is like for like players come cheaper abroad. By the way any new buy could have his wages paid by the saving on Mkabogu. Radz do us all a fovour and just let it lapse.

Agree leodis. Some don’t get business.

Gotta agree, in part Leodis, in that it seems a total turnaround, a lot to throw in on one player, versus the likes of Hernandez on a free plus wages, but find myself agreeing with Whiteman too! If we've now assigned the right man, then let's go full hog, and give him the tools to do the job. Another 3 signings of similar quality, and we will be right in the mix!

Ausman, I have my own business and it don’t run on old equipment, you have to invest money in it, that's business, no equipment your men can’t work, you can’t work it’s that easy, can’t understand how you can’t see that or is it so different over there Mind you some can’t see it over here

I'm sure Bub will get the players in that he wants, not much point us saying we need him, or him or him. Whichever suits his formation is the best one to get :)

Whiteman never thought I'd say this but agree 100% with your first post!

Less of a gamble to invest in a player proven at this level and in this competition than taking a punt on someone who may transition - or not. Had enough of those over the years. Foreshaw is a good example of what going for the known can bring.

I hope it's Hernandez or Vydra because I Don't even know how to start to pronounce Awopboppaloobop's name ;)
