Purslow did well to get Grealish to sign a new contract with the £100m clause. Not many would have expected him to fetch that fee.

Because Lange and Gerrard are operating way beyond their experience and pay scale. 

Lange has scouted for Mickey Mouse football and Gerrard has managed in Minnie mouse football. The pair of them are shit. And they can take McGinn with them when they fuck off, because he's utter pants.

Who are all these terrible players we’ve signed since Lange came in?

Purslow sold Grealish whereas Levy did not sell Kane. Money is soon wasted talent is greatness.

Traore, Ings, Bailey, Digne, Sanson, Barkley.

Buendia and Watkins have shown promise.

Cash and Martinez have proven good value.

Anyone else hasn't been here long enough or didn't cost enough to be of any concern. It's not a good hit rate to be honest is it?

None of those players are terrible. Barkley was a loan as well which was absolutely the right deal to make.

We paid a reported £11m fee to Chelsea for one season of Barkley and the bloke effectively downed tools when he began to be regularly substituted.

Digne has apparently become terrible in the space of three matches this season. Remarkable.

What nonsense.

He's hardly been a roaring success though has he?

He can attack but can he defend?

Indeed, absolute bollocks.

Yes he can - the failures of the season to date have made it absolutely impossible for the full backs.

He's terrible value for money. There's nearly £200m on 8 players there. £200m. Who else spends that kind of money and look as disjointed as we do?
