Ok so you'd spend £60mil on a RW & ACM player for instant impact.
At that sort of money and the players ages you gave we're pretty much looking at the end product rather than someone who may dramatically improve
For £30mil a pop you're not typically getting a 7/8 out of 10 player with previous Thelwell targets; Kudus €46mil, Gakpo €50mil and Diaz €60mil (all incl add ons) all costing more.
Lets say we'd be getting an inconsistent 5/6 some weeks and 7/8 others -- fair as a typical assumption?
I'd prefer to go for a couple of young players with vast potential -- costing more as theyre English -- to build mid-long term with the idea thqt they can become 8/10 consistent players.
With their current ability level and competing against the likes or Harrison & Doucoure I dont think its too much of a stretch to suggest they'd be making an instant impact on the squad at least.
We need to aim for the stars.
