I like Pinnock but is he worth nearly four times what John Egan is worth? I don't think Egan is worth £4million if that is what was paid but if they did that doesn't mean that Pinnock is worth at least £15million in my opinion.
You’re absolutely right Tyrone. A ROI international with near 90 games at championship level is worth one third of a lad who has played 12 games at championship level. I like your logic. The less experience a player has the more money they’re worth. Shaun Tuton must be worth billions.
So how have you come to the conclusion he is four times better than the player Sheff Utd have signed?
John Egan isn't it? Played two seasons at a quality Brentford side in the Championship who've finished in the top 10 both seasons. 4 million is probably about right (sadly) in this day and age. Ethan Pinnock played sparingly (albeit admirably from what I saw) in a team that finished 22nd, that being his only time in the championship. Pinnock may turn into a very good player but on the above, he is obviously not worth more than Egan. But then you knew that.
You pays your money and you take your choice . If that’s the going rate you either pay it and move forward or you go backwards . It’s simple enough , when you look at the recent history of any club that’s had a modicum of success they’ve spent money . We did the opposite and cashed in on our assets and now we’re in the alehouse league .
