    Ollie Watkins.

    I was desperate for us to sign him when he was starting to do well at Brentford and when I said on here I remember the names on here who told me he was too slow and overweight.

    🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

    When you think of the number of people on here who’ve wanted Watkins and Toney when they were second and third level players it’s quite remarkable.

    Our recruitment team have been absolute w a n k for years.

    The average fan has more idea than these clowns.

    I disagree it’s been a constant conveyor belt of the best top talent inbound.
    What about those experienced pros like Austin Lambert and the model professional Anelka
    Those solid hard working honest reliable players like Zahore, Anichebe, and Chadlie.
    Let alone those great buys like Burke and latterly Grant.

    Seriously I guess all clubs make some poor buys, but in all honestly since Ashworth went our recruitment has basically bankrupted us.

    We both were Mick. I wanted Toney as well but how long would we have kept them? 5 minutes. We’re stuck. Like a lot of teams. The best players end up with the big money clubs.
