If they’d played him, I could maybe understand it but basically spent a chunk, never played him then doubled down with stupidity by paying £50m for Ben fecking WhiteIt does seem utterly baffling.
Yes you can buy players for the future, but when a week is a long time in football, and you're not exactly Man City for the spends, what were they thinking about?
He went on loan didn't he as well?
Then they buy a 50m man in his position the next summer!
This sounds almost identical to us with Dalot and Wan Bissaka in fairness! Just a bit cheaper a fee.
Bit at least Dalot got near the pitch occasionally.
I was in a taxi from station to ground on Saturday and sports show on radio said guy who covers transfers (Edu) went on holiday July?! Maybe the office trainee was left in charge and that could explain White.
