Just been thinking about the damage done to the playing squad since the summer in terms of the permanent signings, the money wasted and the unbalanced squad left.
PLM better than Sara/Nunez (both not shown enough and cost us 8-10 million that could've been spent elsewhere)
Rashica better than Onel
Tzolis better than Sinani
Sargent ok
These decisions were made by Webber with some consultation with Smith. Smith reckoned Ramsey was enough to cover Rashica's loss. But they're completely different players. Big element of doing Villa and the player a favour which summed up Smith
That's a really worrying lack of judgement from both and leaves us with not enough quality in the squad particularly in wide areas and through the middle.
