Even if it were, it’s exactly the sort of “end of the road” player we all moan about when we sign them.

I want to see young, athletic, pacey players with potential signing.

I don’t see Brighton and Brentford signing has beens.

The only realistic model for us as a struggling club with a poor owner is to identify decent quality youngsters who we can sell on.

I really wonder if our club has any nous in foreign markets, I suspect not?

This is an interesting read about Brighton and how they’ve gone about things.

It’s a pity we didn’t try this route after two or three years of Premier League stability.

You are right Mick! Recruit an Ashworth type of person on decent wages but add a very good commission on profitability and loss. So if a player like Asante makes the club millions then a commission is payable but deducted against loss of another player ie a Karlan Grant!
