I can see not many transfers from championship clubs in the summer.

We can agree that Ng looks a very good player. The recruitment or transfer committee Is however a complete farce.
People say we are looking for a new Vardy. When Vardy signed for Leicester, they saw something in him, and made a professional judgement.
When you look at the percentages, our committee has got far more wrong with Ng being the exception. Ng wasn't signed based on professional judgement. You throw the dice you'll get a six now and again.
The committee cannot live off the Ng signing forever.

Kieffer doesn't look that shabby either.......
I said "new" as i was led to believe at the scouting and player assessment level we have a new team of people from Arsenal and Southampton systems.
Funny how all the good signings were Warnocks but the crap ones the committee......

Absolutely grant you Moore has been a huge success.
Warnock had his fair share of bad signings, Madine possibly being the worst, but his percentage of good signings far outweighed the bad.
We should not have a transfer committee. Tan, Dalman, Choo, apart from agreeing to, or not agreeing to a fee, should be nowhere near any involvement in finding players. That is the managers and the scouting teams job.

You say their will be zero investment and then list 3 players that will probably cost 12mill+. You're just setting yourself up for dissapointment and will probably use that as a way to have a go at the club for, what you feel, not being ambitious.
You had it right in your other post. The club will be looking to the lower leagues and youngsters and loans. Thats where the club are now. Or would you prefer the club go down the brum, Wednesday and possibly derby route? Gamble on promotion and then breaching ffp when they don't get it.

But be frank would McCarthy give youth the chance? He’s a stick in the mud who’ll play the stolid likes of our present midfield over a progressive dynamic modern style of football.

I dont believe there will be any investment at our club, and I also believe smaller, less fashionable clubs will invest far more than us.
For the avoidance of doubt, I name the players as an example of youngsters who have a huge investment value. Not for one moment do I believe we will even pick up a phone.
But there you have the difference between our youngsters and other teams youngsters. Signing them would show intent in terms of a young, exciting team with potential short to mid term profit.
To summarise my Initial post. This is the type of player we need, but we won't get.

The other two guys he tried to sign were Cameron Jerome who is about 33 and Jordon Rhodes who is I am guessing 30 plus. He shows absolutely no sign sign of wanting to play any of the talented youngsters from our youth team either.
McCarthy has many good qualities as a manager but bringing on talented youngsters isn't one of them. If we make any new signings in the close season expect them to be hard working journeymen of the John Williams Jordon Rhodes type.
Sorry to say it but we have flatlined so badly after a good run that I fear next season could be a season long fight against relegation.
