thatoldchestnut 583 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 5 minutes ago, Borodane said: I have no idea what you are trying to say here? Millwall will never go anywhere because they have to rely on relatively poor domestic players and Brentford play the best football in the league, have progressed steadily and is filled with foreign talent that haven’t cost them a bundle. Their midfield pair of Jensen and Nørgaard have cost them less than a single McNair and half a Saville. Dalsgaard at RB is an international player that cost them almost nothing compared to someone like Shotton. And what did Benhrama cost compared to he domestically experienced super strikers like Britt and Gestede that cost us 21 million and 70k a week in wages. Players with experience from this league has only taken us backwards. Totally agree with you that we have to be creative with our signings. Warnock isnt adverse to a few foreign bargains is he?

GrimsbyBoro 1,959 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 It's not really about where the players come from. Brentford have a plan and stick to it. They extensively scout players starting who fit their criteria. They also aren't afraid to spend. I think they spent something like £30m this year. We go for "big names" and anyone with a connection to the club. There's no plan and no consistency but that sums up the entire club. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

I like Warnock and he's saved us from definite relegation but I just don't believe he's the right man to take us forward I just don't want the possible arrival of Ben Gibson associated costs to impair other meaningful transfer activity. We are not a club that needs or can afford a luxury! 4 Link to post Share on other sites

LinoJo3 3,098 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Brentford’s best policy is letting players go when they get daft offers, where as we seem to fight them off and more often than not never benefit. Link to post Share on other sites
Changing Times 12,219 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 I think our problem is more making the daft offers tbh 🤦♂️ 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Borodane 6,246 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Our problem is only have 6 months strategies. We’re so badly run it’s a parody. There’s no doubt in my mind that the entire senior management group at the club meet each morning to enjoy the Benny Hill theme. The next point on the daily agenda is to approve articles for the Evening Gibson. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
