Thats about the most bizarre WUM thing I've read in ages.
Are you referring to my comment? or rafa?
Not meant to wind up anyone, just the truth mate.
We could have 400 million to spend and still end up with half of crystal palaces team (if they over achieve a little), our scouting is just as bad as spurs.
There is a reason to this, it seems our policy is to buy young players with great potential which is great, really great until you realise they are simply not doing it for us. That's our problem, we would rather buy quantity than quality.
I'd take one world class proven player who is hitting 26/27 years old than getting 4 wonderkids who more than likely wont reach anyones expectations (especially with Brendan's judgement), which we all know is really high at this football club. Rafa knew how to pick them though, with Sterling, Coutinho etc.
I'd say Emre Can was a good spot though, I can see him being a really important player for us in the future.
