Bryan Ruiz: give me some time

[Edwatch_Winston_Malone]

OK but this Funny Old Fella wasn't messing...

[HatterDon]

he's got game; he'll come good. He just has to get used to the pace.

But how good will he come [insert grammar here]?

Fans shouldn't be told how much transfer fees are, we use them as millstones to place around their necks! Don't think I've once discussed Carroll without yes, but he did cost £35million cropping up. We see the same thing with AJ. A man judged by the figures on his contract, not on his merit (rightly or wrongly, I'm not so sure).

You're right of course but equally, ain't gonna stop anytime soon. Silly really as, if anything, it's the player's wages we should use to whinge about the guy rather than the one-off fee. Players who arrived on a free are, I believe, usually on a stack.

Don't get me started on player's wages...  :035:

Nobody has ever convinced me that an average player justifies coining £25-30k a week when there are armies of people doing far more valuable things getting that a year.
