So the big rebuild we all wanted we all knew was needed had 14 outgoings and 11 incomes if you include Diomande all for a net spend of around £7m. Last year we lost 5m in comparison so how on earth can anyone expect PC or frankly any manager our club could attract to go and take on the other mob or qualify/ compete in Europe? At the end of the day you get what you pay for and we need to all hope there's 1 or 2 players amongst our signings who can go on and generate a healthy fee otherwise its going to be a long 2 or 3 years at least before we are competitive in the league imho.

Diomande and Cortes look nowhere near worth what we paid.

I get what your saying ow, we are all just hurting mate, maybe even fear that we won't get back to what we once were. We are lashing out left right centre, it's been a hard road.

Cortes showed more in a few games last season that this, but that'll be because he's not game ready, Diomande has showed glipes but not nearly constant enough just now.

What they worth Rayger? Ask another 10 on the site and when we get different valuations, we see how the market works. In the world of football, £3-£4m gets you not a lot for a young player with time on your contract. Effectively we need to be buying guys for £1m and developing them enough for clubs to think they’re worth £10m . Or shop for frees, which if you’ve been on her long enough, which people constantly whinge about.
Diomande def offers something different, he can travel with the ball. Cortez has got pace and actually takes a man on. Give them time or risk chasing them out of Glasgow at a big loss.

I just said, nowhere near what we paid!

Dio has to be played in his preferred position otherwise we will never get the best out of him and certainly won't even recoup the 4.5m we paid, cortes imo hasn't been fit long enough to give a serious valuation but like any manager you are judged by your signings and PC needs his signings to perform otherwise he. ll pay with his job. Boy blue your spot on mate it's a tough time and many of the fans are lashing out. We will be back bigger better and stronger.

We need patience with these guys and allow them some develop time 12-18 months. We probably need a couple of older guys in to help a bit like Davis did.
04 Sep 2024 18:16:48
We will make money on Diomande, we need an experienced holding mid to get the best out of him, he can then play as an 8 and not try and do everything which is highlighting his negatives.

RayGer based on your evaluation or one where a recruitment professional with a high success rate. also basing it on just over 8 months playing of which one has been injured unfortunately in a team which has just been created.
Personally I'll give them a bit more time to decide what they are worth. If we had beaten them on Sunday then wonder how much we would think the players were worth?

If we had beaten them? We didn't beat them though! We got gubbed again! If, deary me.
