Guest Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 If you can get a player of similiar standard in Europe for 1/5 of the over all cost of a player currently in England it's surely worth a punt Yeah but you don't always have to gamble and should have a blend of the two in my opinion. The upside of domestic players is the added knowledge of how they have performed/can perform in the domestic league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bristolcitysweden Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 I ain't convinced Celtic would be top 5 in the Championship over the course of a full season. No but if you can get that "quality" for 1/5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selred Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 No but if you can get that "quality" for 1/5 That's a big if. We've tried that with Kodjia. Shall we see how that goes first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckeyed Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 No risk no upside It's the trade off though.. You can buy a successful English league player for a higher price or an unproven cheaper player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not each single player but in general you will get same standard for far less money from abroad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
