Davinson Sanchez

Do you remember the time we sold Keane, Bent and Berbs leaving us with just Defoe as a striker? We had to sign that Man U striker Campbell on an emergency loan. I don't want a scenario like that again.
Didnt we have pavlychenko as well? So 2 senior strikers already on the books then swapped berbs for Frazier?

I think you're misremembering it a bit - Defoe was already gone (to Pompey - he'd left in January 2008, iirc), and Bent was still around. We basically went into the season with two strikers in Bent and Pav (and *maybe* a third in Gio Dos Santos), and added Campbell after banking 30m on deadline day as a desperate attempt to compensate for the loss of Berba.

It didn't work out. I get your overall point, though.
 
Have we ever bought two players from the same club? Can't imagine any chairman or owner wants to sit down with Levy and negotiate twice.. :cool:
 
All our big money ( 20 mill or over) buys have struggled

Lamela, Soldado, Janssen, Sissoko

Bentley and Bent at 16 mill flopped. That's when 16 mill was a lot of money

I really think we are better off sticking with the cheapies;)

I have a bad feeling about Dave Sanchez. 40 mill for him is totally nuts

Son has been good, he was about £20m. Ajax do right by us, don't worry.

Overall i would say lamela has done well enough to make a claim for being in the starting XI. Had a stuttering start ... once he comes back we will be much stronger for it.
