1. Our last right winger was Valencia, a really long time ago, and you're satisfied with some routine reports about a replacement? (Bet you believe the routine reports about a DOF too?)
2. Like Mane & DJ, Sancho is yet another that is better on the LW cutting in imo (played there for City too), why can't we just target a proper right winger?
3. No stand out quality right winger for all these years? Mahrez & Bilva before City got 'em? Ziyech? Suso, Berardi, Pepe
4. Why are you satisfied that every summer we seem to have one target (Bale), fail to land him & go after zero back-up targets for that starting RW slot - yet we're super efficient when it comes to signing squad depth the likes of DJ?
Oh sorry I didn’t know we were talking about other transfer windows not relevant to the purchase of Daniel James when talking about buying Daniel James.
Sancho plays predominantly on the right for Dortmund and England. Pepe has looked every bit worth that 70 mill. The point is, whether you agree with it or not, it seems that the club is going to go all out for Sancho, you can’t go and buy a 50 mill plus player for the right wing and then go spend 80 mill plus next summer.
I didn’t say I’m satisfied with not having a right winger, more buying Daniel James doesn’t impact our attempts to buy a right winger and was a transfer that will do far more good than harm in the long run. If he was bought to be a long term starter on the right then yes I’d be worried, but you do still have to buy the right players when they come available starting or squad quality.
You said you didn’t understand why we bought James when we have so many left sided players, (only two of whom were worth keeping and/or actually wingers) and I said because you still buy for the squad. Currently our starting left winger is out for two months and the other player you said was a left winger is in fact our striker. In terms of numbers buying James looks like a fantastic idea now, seeing as we are thin pretty much everywhere in the pitch.
If you want to go further back in time and grumble about us selling Kanchelskis and Ince, go ahead.
