Wimb As it is, right now we've got a man with 1 goal in 35 games, a youngster with about 20 goals, all in League One who's been left out on loan to be part of a team that's creating chances and in a promotion hunt. An unknown quantity from the Polish leagues who's not fully fit, Kermorgant who's also not fully up to speed or in a team that plays to his strengths or a bunch of Academy products with barely a senior game between them.
In those circumstances Brian is hoping that Vydra returns to the form from last season and with the options he has available, there's not a lot wrong with that.
Yeah Vydra's not been good enough, has missed some sitters and sadly been a waste of money but what can you do at this stage?
This goes to the heart of my main question regarding all of this.
Yes, Dellors approach is closer to amateur than professional when he gets a bee in his bonnet but, surely he's only displaying the same frustration as many fans in how a striker rarely capable of hitting a barn door with a banjo since the day of his hugely expensive arrival is still getting on the pitch and still costing us dearly.
Why is Brian giving Vydra every opportunity to rediscovery past glory having elected elsewhere to give preference to those who will be here next season over numerous loanees? Leaving him out of last nights 16 would not have been difficult and he'd done next to nothing to justify inclusion.
Does every cr@p performance lower the price Watford might accept
Unless the Thai's are preparing to dig deep again this summer, I'm struggling to see how our final tranche of parachute payments will fund signing the likes of Ola John who have regularly produced performances that might justify the risk of expensive investment.
Frankly, as things stand even 500k on Vydra would be a risk we can ill afford.
Hurrell crossover potential.
