We've been settling for players that are supposedly good enough for too long and using the profit on players that aren't better than our some of our back ups. Pasalic could have easily filled the Drinkwater role. Money poorly spent. I have started to wonder how the board/Roman see things going forward. Is everything going on hold till our stadium is sorted out?
We've lost out on arguably one WC player, one on his way to be & another in Lukaku that would easily have a place in our squad. Selling the likes of Atsu, Djilobodji & Di Santo to name a few, isn't winning in my book.
There are several parties to blame but it ultimately lies with the board IMO. He was on fire at Wolfsburg & was let go for peanuts. I do wonder if loans are just a way to show potential suitors what you can when our club are involved. Only Courtois & Christensen have been given a chance (don't want to hear the same old line, "they weren't good enough").
So fortunate. Happy there wasn't an ET as well
Edit: Morata might have won the game but is now suspended for Saturday. Guess Hazard will be leading the line
