The fact is we're on a single mission to get promoted this season. It's not a time to be cutting corners. We need to take advantage of the PL payment we got for last season and use those funds to do everything possible to achieve our goal. I've seen Bristol City fans value Kodjia at £8m so we may have overpaid at £11m but it's a calculated risk. RDM obviously wanted the player, he's now got him and we're looking more prepared for the rest of the season.
I don't care whether the signing of Kodjia means he scores 20 goals or makes another player fight harder to keep his place, providing we are successful. Right now nothing else matters. No one player will get us promoted but collectively adding competition to the squad will make us a better team. My guess is all will play their part during what will be a long and hard season.
