We look very limited in the market with Tony Pulis in charge that isn't a dig at the fella he's doing a good job but you always pay a premium for players based in the UK and Pulis always looks reluctant to sign players from abroad
Don't get me wrong I wouldn't mind Phillips but not at the sort of price been suggested by QPR
I agree to some extent, but buying a player who is proven in the PL is much less of a risk than spending perhaps half the fee but ending up with a player who can't to it in our league. I would've thought that our signings last summer would go a long way in supporting that point! Paying a larger fee at least reduces the risk in these cases....
