Have to say, happy enough looking at young players who are decent now with massive ceiling. This is what Brands was brought here for.
Think Rafael has the coaching ability to improve these players could is also key.
 

haha get a grip lads
Honestly really annoyed me this one. Not even the player himself, know next to nothing about him, but rather the sheer, transparent laziness of it.

What is that incompetent Dutch buffoon paid for??

Kind of killed your own argument there

As has been said, Jebbison was linked with us before he scored against us.

Would be a punt but we need a few of those.
Absolutely no problems with these sort of signings exactly what brands and his team should be doing like you say we were linked with him before playing against us and we were linked with a young striker 16 year old striker recently from Sunderland
 
Is it lazy if we bid for a player the fans know next to nothing about? ?

It's lazy if we do the same thing we do all the time. See Vlasic/McNeil for details.

Anyone could have done this job. "That Jebbison scored against us, let's look at him.", "That McNeil scored against us, let's look at him." etc. etc. etc. etc.

Well I mean Vlasic has turned into a very good player and McNeil has played well against many teams not just us. If you think we’d want this lad purely because he scored against us last season you’re deluded.

We've done it before. Vlasic as stated - that was bloody ridiculous. In no way should one performance dictate a signing; there should be a raft of info and research behind every signing, and if they're not available you go down the list to find similar.

Hell, we did it with Fellaini famously - a last minute massive punt as we had money and he played well against Liverpool. It's just lazy - even if it comes off like it did with him, it's just blind luck. It indicates no serious system is in place.

With a DoF, you'd have hoped these amateur hour things were done, but no, we're even worse with it.

We were linked to Jebbison before we even played Sheff United. Just to throw a nuke on your poor argument.

Just imagine if they’d actually been scouting him, liaised with the development team and new manager and have all agreed on it. Which would probably be the reality
 
There is something about a club in our position as well, trying to essentially pick fights with other domestic clubs, and more or less encouraging them to mug us.

It stinks of desperation and a complete lack of strategy and planning.

We avoid these issues largely if we go continental or global. You take out the tribal aspect and can actually get value for money if you try hard enough.
