How much is he worth then, seeing as you are the price fixer for all transfers?
Haha jeez you get stroppy when people don't agree with you. What do you want me to say? Do we need a better keeper? Yes. Do I agree that we use no foresight, and spend whatever to address that? No, not unconditionally. And I think I was quite rational with my explanation for why above.
You're entitled to disagree. We already know how you'd run our club. You'd sell Ings and Solanke for next to nothing. You'd rather just release Sturridge for almost 7 mil than have him around. And you'd probably be happy to get into a bidding war with Chelsea and pay 75 mil for Alisson.
So basically we've now got this guy who isn't exactly renowned for his commanding presence and resilient attitude, made him the world's most expensive goalkeeper, and told him all you have to do is just not F**k up like the other guy (Karius). No pressure...
Guess what? The dude is going to F**k up. Almost guaranteed. And because we paid so much for him, no doubt we'd end up feeling compelled to stick with him. We're basically enabling ourselves to be a graveyard for keepers by creating a yips-friendly zone.
Naturally, with your inclination to throw your toys out of the pram, you'd just release him on a free though, and then double down and buy the next guy for 100 mil.
But seriously, with the toxic environment we've created for ourselves, we're better off throwing lower value, lower risk bodies (and more of them, if necessary) at the problem. Lower the expectation (as much as can be done within the current scenario), and let keepers sink or swim with minimal risk. More tickets to the lotto, more chances to win (our own Nick Pope story).
Is my strategy right? Or is your strategy right? Despite my often seemingly righteous tone, I'm always just sharing my own opinion here. We don't really know anything for sure. That's why some of us come on here to discuss and share our views and hopes.
However, please feel free to continue to consistently piss on all of them. Eventually you'll just find yourself pissing into the wind though.
