Brumstopdogs Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 So you've done that for the whole league for the last 3 years? Let's see the figures then. Yes, the current premier league teams since Lambo came - figures provided earlier in this thread (in the last week) a number of times should you want to search for them!

Brumstopdogs Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 He has taken it from here I suspect. http://transferleague.co.uk/league-tables/transfer-league-table-last-five-seasons.html Either way. Still an utterly pointless way of Lambert bashing. So, the last FIVE seasons, then Some of us are able to add 3 seasons together - hence why I said from when Lambert took over. Okay, then add them up for us to see, quoting sources, and IF we come out 11th in the spending I'll issue a grovelling apology. I've added them up. The source has been quoted. Why would we come out 11th in the net spend when we've outspent 11 teams? That would mean there are 8 we haven't outspent! So you've done that for the whole league for the last 3 years?

sexbelowsound Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Well if that is the source some of those fees are well off. For instance it says Makoun went to Rennes on a free. I'm pretty sure at the time it was reported that he went for a fee in the region of £2 million. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrackpotForeigner Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Any sort of semi-reliably sourced figures will do BTD, but they must be for Lambert's tenure compared to other clubs over the same time period. 11th from top, 11th from bottom, whatever, close enough IF you can find the figures, which you can't.

Tomaszk Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Well in my opinion the football we play while not being great is world's away from the shite McLeish dished up and McLeish inherited a far better squad and spent more money on individual players. This is a key comparison to look at between those who think Lambert is worth giving more time and those who think him staying here is holding us back. For me, the instructions (or more likely, lack of instructions) and the directions he gives the team are far too similar to what McLeish had here. Others obviously feel different. There is no plan and no leadership coming from the bench any time soon and we are vile to watch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well those were the figures he gave me when I questioned how 11 teams could have a lower net spend over the 5 windows since Lambert arrived.

terrytini Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Well, we'll find out in the next 22 games whether having tactics everyone likes is more important than having your best player fit and scoring goals. Not sure those 2 things are mutually exclusive to each other. For me it's more having a tactic that helps Benteke and the others create chances and score goals without falling appart defensively. Im sure everyone will like that Yep, my point was mainly that I don't believe the importance of tactics is all it's cracked up to be. I think having Benteke back (and may he remain "back" for a long time) will persuade a lot of people that somehow the tactics have improved, when actually it's the quality of the players on the pitch that's improved. Yeah because those that don't like how we play are simple misguided folk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
