Thanks for the ITK.
Which ever way we want to spin it, we're being out bid by Brentford and Brighton to a key target.
Our approach now is to gain interest from the targeted player, and use that buy in to try to dictate terms.
The problem is the market is too competitive and dynamic to ever have that control.
This approach very nearly cost us the Dragusin deal.
Plenty to be positive about our club at the moment, but without Paratici leading negotiations my fear is we're going back to the bad habits of Dear Leader.
- Summer deadline day pulling plugs on CBs.
- Sanchez sale after deadline without replacement.
- Dragging our feet to the squeeze the pips this window, and being gazumped by Brentford.
I'm not convinced any of that happens with Paratici steering the ship, and I think Nusa would probably be our player.
