Because,on the whole,they went for average Champiomship players that no-one else was interested in.
Mooy's decent and Mounie looks a good find (though i suppose i would say that) but would you want any of their other players in our team? I certainly wouldn't.

And the average players that no one else is interested have allowed them to win their 1st two games.....
Once more for old times sake:-

The only surprise about Huddersfield's start to this season is that they aren't playing us today.
As they'd then be playing their third championship team, in disarray, in succession.

As it is Southampton at home isn't the most Premier League of fixtures.
(Admittedly neither was Watford on fixtures day).

I had the feeling this would go pear shaped.

In terms of where he was coming from, we were paying top, too money - perhaps even a ludicrous amount. He could have been the next Drogba etc. or quite as easily the new Manu.

With this in mind I am unsurprised our medical was highly rigorous.

Any doubts and you don't gamble.

Onward...

I don't imagine the medical was any more rigorous than the one he had in January, when the issue was first diagnosed.

What are the odds on him playing against Luzern, 3pm tomorrow?

Hughton needs to buy a striker with PL experience - Crouch is a possibility but he's 36 - I would go for Shane Long or Charlie Austin with Long the preference because Austin is more injury prone.

Not playing for Zurich today, he's either injured or...







...on his way.

Canepa on Brighton: «amateur and umprofessional»
After the dwarfed Dwamena deal the FCZ president criticizes the behavior of the Premier League club Brighton - and wins the thing nevertheless good.

The failed transfer from Raphael Dwamena to the Premier League last week caused headlines. FCZ President Ancillo Canepa is now speaking.

The FCZ president talked about the Zurich league championship in Lucerne (1: 1) in interviews with Teleclub and SRF to the intermittent change and took no notice.

Repeat case?

Canepa described the behavior of the premier league as "amateurish and unprofessional" and even took the word "swear" in his mouth. Brighton had a few days ago withdrew his offer for the striker in double-digit millions - because of a supposedly medical standard deviation. He had also noticed that Brighton had already done this several times, according to Canepa.

What exactly the medical problem with the 21-year-old from Ghana should have been, did not explain Canepa. "There are always a lot of differences between the players," says the FCZ president. "It is crucial whether these are performance-reducing or harmful to health." However, they did not come to this conclusion during their investigations at the Schulthess Clinic in the spring.

«Glad Raphael is back»

Canepa, however, was not disappointed at the split deal, even if the club had a record detachment sum in the cash. He had not searched the transfer and the first offer therefore also rejected, according to Canepa. The second offer then exceeded the economic pain threshold. "I am glad Raphael is back, because we have ambitious goals."

In Lucerne the striker was missing in the FCZ squad. Dwamena will undergo medical tests again in Zurich before returning to the training day. (Nag / si)

Yes we have done it before in this window and the player in question is subsequently having a knee operation. What is amateur is expecting a top flight professional club to play 7 figures for someone without assessing them fully. Reads as sour grapes as clearly embarrassing for the selling club that the thoroughness of their own medical checks is being questioned.
