I was going to ask if they are already spending the Grealish money !! May be proved wrong, but £28m rising to £33m seems an awful lot to spend on an unproven Championship striker. We were also linked with Cash, the Forest right back, as a back up if KWP fell through. £15m for an unproved Championship full back seems a bit steep. £20m on the Arsenal reserve Keeper also seems pricey, but certainly he looks an improvement on what they had in goal last season. | |

He’s a decent keeper. | |

...but what I bet they haven't got is a self-sustaining business model. The quiet comfort I get from knowing that we've got that, is worth a thousand times more than any flash-in-the-pan big money signings. | |

I don’t think anyone would be in for him this season, so he may as well sign a new contract. Isn’t Watkins on big wedge, he’d now get parity. Still think he will be on the move if he has a good season and isn’t a whopper in his personal life. [Post edited 15 Sep 2020 12:39]
