We're 12 games into this season after losing our best two players. We've not our best 11 players out once.You ain't the brightest are you? We've been incrementally improving for years, spending within our means and making profit from player sales, this season we've spanked millions and millions on players I very much doubt will double or triple in value.
To be fair Greggs is bang on as per usualThis forum dosent half go mental after we lose a game
A gold bullion heist?Where do get 15 million from ?
How can you say after a few weeks that it is a waste of money?To be fair Greggs is bang on as per usual
15 million wasted on two forwards, particularly wright
what’s his strength? What’s he good at?
please someone enlighten me
His strengths are fairly clear. He is very fast; pretty strong on the ball and in the air. There is no lack of talent there but so far he has only shown those talents in short bursts. Let's hope he manages to improve so that he impacts more on games.To be fair Greggs is bang on as per usual

I agree.Wright is £7.7m, Simms is £3.5m for now. Who cares if that doubles if we go up with the amount of money you get for getting promoted.
Simms is good value for his age and potential at the time we bought him, Wright seemed very dear

I agree.
I thought Simms was the very top of what we would be willing to pay, and he seems to have potential and had done well at Sunderland, so the quite high fee (for us) with the add-ons seemed like an ok risk.
Wright was way above what I thought we would be paying and seemed to be putting a lot of eggs in one basket, especially for someone who had never played in England. His scoring record seemed alright, but his highlights packages on YouTube hardly had me hugely excited as I couldn't really see anything particularly special there. It just seemed like a massive gamble and thus far is not paying off at all.
Personally, I have preferred to see that amount of money spent on two or even three players a bit younger and with potential. If we were going to spend that kind of money on a single player I'd at least want it to be on someone with a proven record in England at this level.
I'm not 'hating' on Wright. He seems like a nice guy, just a bit shy maybe, and I desperately want him to succeed here for both us and him.
What’s a proven record in England though?I agree.

Appreciate it’s probably not that much as we probably haven’t paid what’s quoted because of add ons etc that I doubt we’ll have to payWhere do get 15 million from ?
Nope it was reported as the base fee, from the very excited chap on the club siteI suspect the £7.5million is the maximum we could pay eventually same with the Simms transfer fee.
It’s frustrating things haven’t come off as we hoped yet but still time I hope.
The USA international striker has today completed a deal to join the Sky Blues from Antalyaspor on a four-year contract, following agreement of a club-record transfer fee.
