I’m still trying wrap my head around

Spending 20m on two left wingers, when it wasn’t obvious that buying even one was a priority given the obvious things the squad needed. And how we signed a young striker with a terrible goal scoring record, and then had him cement the RW position solely because he works hard defensively.

That’s 30m, frankly up the swanny, when we NEEDED TO REPLACE SKIPP ffs.

I’m not hindsighting this either. It was bloody obvious all summer.
