Can we please stop overhyping our players.
I really like Makhanya, he's been a breath of fresh air at the back.
But on Friday, we had him moving directly to Liverpool on the say so of former players.
On last night's performance, he would be lucky to get a move to Blackpool.
Let's just enjoy him whilst he is here and develops into a player that delivers us trophies.

Agree MPH. we really do go overboard both ways.

Spot on MPH. we've had a few 20 mil players recently! How have we done with them??
The lad has played a dozen games isherwood & last night ( not for the first time) he had a bad one. I agree , he might be a good player in a few years but but showing up (or not) in one of the poorest leagues in Europe isn't going to have BIG teams queuing up at our door imo.
If we ever do make money on him it will be 'sell on' percentage.

I was at the game last night and the Guy sitting two along from me chose a chicken and chorizo pie.
So he was obviously a scout from Real Madrid or Barcelona.

Agreed, some folk really do keep getting ahead of themselves when we have one or two good games. Massive fan of him, but he could have cost us last night on more than one occasion. Also, why do our players insist on taking one touch too many every time we have the ball only for the opposition to get a foot in? Apart from that, delighted with the three points at a tricky venue.

Honestly MPH, he's 1000% the second coming of Beckenbauer and will 10000% captain Barcelona to the club universe cup after his £100,000,000 move from us, I have no doubt in my mind. 😬😩👍😩😩😩.

We have done the same with Bouanani after two decent games.

Well said mate. It annoys me how as a fanbase the first thing we do is try hawk our players. Our how much money this player will make us how about how many trophies this player will make us. Do we want to be Bayern Munich or borussia Dortmund.

Just waiting on the Pandur worth 50mil shouts to start! 😅. Joking aside, he has been pretty decent so far.

Mistakes is always going to happen with young cb's, all he can do is learn, he is an outstanding young cb with massive potential.

We have a habit of doing that with the team as a whole, too. Let's pat ourselves on the back when we win trophies. Good to get the 3 points on Saturday, but we are still very prone to mistakes and inconsistent performances- I think the manager has said that himself.
We are a lot better than we were at the beginning of the season but need to follow the old football cliché 'one game at a time'. Plus, player values are always going to be what someone is willing to pay for them, not what we think.
