Meaning a waste to buy someone who'll frustrate us for 3 years before really contributing when we're currently in our worst position for 2 decades. You think it's a sensible use of money to buy someone who won't really contribute for 3 years or so when we are in quite desperate need of players now? And don't pretend any solid pros other than Henry on loan will be signed as well.
I guess I'm just past the stage where I can bothered signing young talent who will inevitably move to United or City once they come good. Much rather sign someone who is 26/7 and will at least give us their best years and give the slightest shit about making it here. There is only one possible reason why a 19 year old would come here and that is to play enough first team football to become good enough to be signed by one of the top clubs. They're not coming here to make a career here.
