Exactly, it’s not just about what we replace as a defender, it’s what he brings to the wider game, how he creates in this quarterback type role.

Don’t think the two things are related

Or at least not as dismayed by them as we now are

It's true I do hold a bit of the mystical opinion about the role, just cannot quite correlate the role of a Directory, Financial, Technical, Development, whatever with the role of a "Footballing" Director, so that on me. Mentioned to @Stadt in a previous reply, it would be better to have a dedicated person in the role rather than some seeming buddy to the CEO, who has multiple roles and responsibilities.

Let me take that TLDR back You raise some fair points The fees for players was poor just imagined it was low due to our desperation to avoid FFP problems. Would certainly much rather have a single person who is a dedicated DoF Yes, the whole management team share the blame for these deficencies. Not convinced any of this will be in anyway a surprise to Enzo, but that makes sense too me and isn't factual. Maybe their is info out there that categorically prove Rudkin is the point of failure, but no ITK is going to confirm, so hard to say as he will always be the obvious figure of blame due to his role

Yes, their is a hypothetical chance for things to be better or worse. Judging by how things were pre-KP we may have caused for pause

Ok, since admitted slightly weaker mind.

No fan of Rudkin and I am sure there is plenty he holds blame for, but yesterday, which is what this is all about, I have no clue, it's all rumour and conjecture. He signed Chilwell and Barnes to pro contracts at least

As a poor academy director sure

Think I said mostly the same, but yes. losing Casadi was unfortunate and weakens us slightly, but believe we have enough to not suffer as a consequence. Anyway, it's Chelseas fault

Yup, strap in! If you want to fix it proper, buy the club. You listening a bunch of failures, but do not list successes in th same period. Would you like to erase both from the history books? You are exposed as a malcontent

But your whole argument is based on an assumption that what we see is a true indication of what's happening in reality. I see little point getting my knickers in a twist about something I am not certain is true or I have actual control over, especially when it has hardly impacted our chances of promotion,

Would be good if there was actual evidence rather than just circumstantial damnation, but I realise this is unlikely.

Did not say he was an upgrade, he is cover, which is what Casadei was

You could but it's not a strong argument, as you pointed out,and we have tested the water with our own in the Raikhy lad, so not much change really.

Doesn't make you right either way

I was referring yesterday, so yes. If you read many fan boardsw e are nowhere near as unique as some make out.

Could, yes, would no.

The day after the night before, standard unsubstantiated lashing out. Would rather we had sold some, but so be it, we are in the same position that got us on course to win this league.

So we play the kids if we need too, but agree about no sales being more annoying than no arrivals

No, there will be another one along in 10 minutes

Ah yes, see what you mean, but this deal has been mentioned in this form for days, seems odd.

Never saw why they would accept that tbh, as if we explode and don’t go up, they get the initial 500k only

Would instalments be recognised in year?

In the same way my great great grandma is complicated…..
