    My apologies

    Was Frimpong ever on our wishlist?
  • VP89 replied to the thread Liam Delap | £30m release clause?.
    Er, you can't because he's proven to do 12 goals for a relegated side in the Premier League. I think you're broken mate, take a break and lets call it a day. I feel sorry for you if you think we're going to finish in a similar position next...

    How so?

    If we spent on Cunha, Semenyo and had Delap alongside Bruno and Amad - do you really think we would be struggling for goals?
  • VP89 replied to the thread Liam Delap | £30m release clause?.
    I agree in an ideal world you want an established player. But if the finances are tighter due to other problem areas I sort of get it. For example if Mateta is £20m more, we are then looking for about £40m for a 10. Say Dibbling? Unsure who...

    I think he's capable of 12-15 goals in year one. The talk about wearing the United shirt is correct but it's not about experience as much as it is about mentality. You need mentally strong, bullish players. Carlos Tevez came from Argentina...

    That speaks more to the poor recruitment though. You're evaluating Delap by association of previous transfers which is flawed. The last time we bought a kid to be striker before Hojlund it was Martial and it was probably bang for buck on...

    Is it a presumption? We won't have the same team next year, to presume otherwise is a far bigger stretch. Wel be going for Cunha, say Delap is the striker and by all credible reports at least 2-3 other positions. It's actually more realistic...

    We would be a top half side. And even if we weren't we'd still be levels higher in quality and service than Ipswich were so yes it's a very moot point. I know what you said to try to discredit him. In your own words without twisting anything...
  • VP89 replied to the thread Liam Delap | £30m release clause?.
    Of course it does. I said he scored 12 goals for a relegated side and you said we are close to relegation. You supposedly agree that we likely won't be in that spot next season so it's a moot point. He's not joining a side that overhauled the...

    It is an anomaly because we more than likely won't be back in this position next season or the season after.
  • VP89 replied to the thread Liam Delap | £30m release clause?.
    Its not a buzzword. I had a simple question, do you reasonably think that we will be relegation contenders next year? If not, your point 1) is redundant.
  • VP89 replied to the thread Liam Delap | £30m release clause?.
    What do you mean the quality is irrelevant? Its nor irrelevant. Unless you reasonably think we wil fight for relegation next season you have no basis on your initial point. This season is clearly an anomaly. Also it's not a few seasons, more...

    Of course it's an outlandish claim. For starters he's demonstrated making consistent steps up and second, his first year in the PL at 21 showed no signs of being out of place. Normally for players where the shirt is too heavy or the quality is...
