I think most forwards that have a decent scoring record in La Liga will be a seven figure player (although I'm talking pounds, not euros, so it's only just above that boundary). I'm intrigued -- rather than irritated -- why you don't, given you are the font of knowledge on all things football finance.

Not at all. That was a bizarre window - when we signed Baldock and Colunga I assumed CMS was on his way. To end up with all three of them ......... it made no sense.

The frightening thing was CMS, Baldock, Clunge and COG cost close to £7million between them, were trousering £50k a week collectively and scored seven? league goals between them all season

The 1.5 million Euros may also be his pay under a two year contract or perhaps even more. A big disappointment to be honest. Nobody else seems to want him which for a striker rather says it all. There were glimmers there but for the £1million we paid him ?

I am glad to see there is reality regarding Elliott Bennett. Off to Bristol City, yes that is now about his level, looking to help a team stay in the Championship rather than one at the top. Look forward rather than back.

Exactly, CMS now second division, Clunge unwanted, COG.. has he scored this season ? and Baldock.. well he has one but hopefully some more soon. If Baldock does not fire soon we will be falling down the Championship.

Would that be the Championship that the Albion are currently top of and unbeaten in, with Baldock 'not firing'?

Mmmm I picked up on that quote. Think he might be trying to oversell himself a bit there. I doubt that he cost €1.5M euros because however desperate the club were to get him off the wage bill, would not want to just write that off 14 months later.

If Baldock keeps 'not firing' whilst relying on every other player in the team to 'do the business' like they have so far, that'll do for me :lolol:

That's as good as Bennett will get as he's had loads of injurys and is bang average to be fair.

No wins in the last three games whilst dominating. Why is that ?. Simple..not enough goals. He will need to find the net if we are to stay at or near the top and he needs to score his fair share.

He has not been scoring has he ? He will need to score won't he? Why do you think we have not won any of our last three games ? We have not scored enough have we ? Simple as far as I am concerned.

An interesting take on a team sport.
