Isn’t he also a player that RDZ was thought to have wanted, who didn’t really fit our usual recruitment model? If so, that would suggest it’s a good idea for us to stick to the recruitment that’s worked with only the occasional exception.
Seeing that, it’s nowhere near as bad as I feared from hearing Sky’s reaction and some of the comments here. Seems like the usual (perhaps too) honest reaction and a statement of fact about the club’s policy. I’m sure he’d love to have a few more expensive senior pros - who wouldn’t?
