Alonso taking a leaf out of the Davy Moyes book of old, tried and PL trusted (with dodgy wrists).

Think we bought Pickford for £30m at a similar age, so price is probably about right even though it feels high.

No excuses for Trafford now though.

Moyes gets dogs abuse from some on here for giving a 32year old a 12 month extension, Hollywood Managers sign 35 and 36 year d players and he’s deemed to be doing the sensible thing in bringing some “PAST Prem ready players in”

Nobody on here has said Alonso is doing the sensible thing

You’re comparing two different things

Wellbeck makes sense, Henderson doesn't.

Apparently they're trying to mix up their model a bit having decided they need some experience to go with all the expensive youngsters they're buying. There's a happy medium though, going for experience doesn't mean getting in a bunch of over the hill journeymen who will hardly get a game.

Ultimately doesn't matter what any of these clubs do. They can sign these players, give them £100k a week, not play a single minute and everything is absolutely fine.

How has James Trafford increased in value so much sitting on the bench?

I know he is highly thought of but has he ever shown any consistent run of performances in the PL?

I honestly cant remember.

Championship he has but he’s not been great when he’s played in the PL
