Subject: I have no doubt that he engineered his exit, so no disagreement on his motives for leaving the club. I think the failure to replace him is more of an issue for me. In my opinion there's an obvious weakness in the team and that's our striking options. Raul is a very decent player as a back up but I've always thought that we needed to invest in a proper replacement for Mitro; a nailed on starter. I'm not as sold on Muniz as others might be. I don't think he'll ever be a force in this division.
In reply to: Henry1879 's message, "I’m not saying we wouldn’t have been better, I’d say it’s debatable and I can see both sides, but my point is mitro fee - Raul + Muniz fee is circa 30m, that ain’t bad business and we have to sell to reinvest to improve. Would Muniz have developed like he has if mitro was still here? He’s our long term 9 if he keeps improving. As we know, all a moot point, he forced a move out, it was himself who decided we had no choice but to evolve a team without him." on Tuesday, March 11, 10:03:05pm

  • Not going to pick up on anything else in your post, but you're overstating the value of the transfer. It's detailed in our books as a net profit on player registration (ie, fee minus remaining amortisation) of a fraction over £30m. So in reality, your sum above should be more 'Mitro fee - Raul+Muniz fee is circa £17m. Still an important £17m for reasons i mention below (NT) -- Same Old Story, Wednesday, March 12, 10:24:23am (webdefence-pool-02.cluster-a.forcepoint.net/85.115.52.202)
