You are correct it probably won’t buy much end product.Forgive me if I have the wrong poster mate, but you've been harping on about FFP since the start of the window, so much so that it was annoying. But turns out you were right.
Now you're complaining that we're buying potential when we need the end product. Isn't the answer obvious? £10m won't buy you much end product.
We have needed a right back for about three years. The situation was absolutely desperate last year. So to see the solution being an untried right back from the scottish league, I’m a little nervous.
I like the fact that people think he has potential so in that sense it’s good.
My problem is that when Coleman inevitably gets injured, will we use him or will it be back to Holgate. My suspicion is that it will be Holgate and we are no better off than last season.
Im happy to be proved wrong, but going on recent history, managers use experienced players over rookies every time. Nkounkou has barely played, and didn’t get a chance when Digne was injured. We seem to have gone from Dumphries who would have been a starter to a player who probably wont be ready for at least a season.
Who knows, Maybe Benitez will take a different view and give him a chance. At least we are looking at a player for a position that needs attention.
Let’s wait and see.
