Rohkey Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 I don't get it, I paid $3.4 million for him. That's relatively cheap for what I pay for youngsters. (25 mil for Rodwell, 15 for Aurier, 8 for a regen Striker, 5 for Sanogo, etc) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ankitthegr8 Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 its nt the board who is upset but the fans are upset with this signing as u might have signed him from a rival. or u havent played him after signing(however he was in the frst team) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dumax Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 I wouldn't worry too much, I signed a world class keeper in Ochoa for only $14M (USD) and the supporters complained about the "waste" of money - mind you this was when I was newly promoted to the Championship. 2 Months later the fans had changed their mind and now see him as a "truly inspired signing".

FrazT Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Dont worry at all about that- as long as the player does the business on the field, the concerns will ease. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vangelis21 Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 yes the guys are right. my comment though would be that you didn't pay little for that guy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rohkey Posted April 4, 2010 Author Share Posted April 4, 2010 Yeah, I guess maybe because he spent a long spell injured the fans felt he wasn't worth it, was just surprised when I saw this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dob1 Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 It does this a lot when you sign a player for the future. I've had the board and crowd disappointed about my new signing - he was a 15 year old regen who had immense potential, irl he wouldn't even be legal to play in the Premier League (You have to be 16 iirc) and he was a signing for the future. That is something that needs to be fixed for next year Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
delboy69 Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 yep the fans sometimes complain about a signing, when I was at Rangers I signed a brazillian keeper for 11 million and they were moaning about him but he quickly won the fans over with some impressive performances. Fans are a fickle bunch at the best of times and need to have something to moan about! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simply... Awesome! Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 if you play the player, (and the player gets a "decent" rating and doesnt cause any kind of massive squad disharmony) the fans (and the Board members that pay attention to them) would be happy. You would find that if you sign players as "hot prospects" (or of a less contract status), there would be no implied obligation to play them by the fans or Board; the reverse is true for Key players.
