I was just curious about our new signing and was looking at Serie A and apparently there is a team in it called Cagliari with only a 5000 seater stadium. They seem to be doing alright as well in the league. Crazy.
I've been thinking about the club and the big upheaval this year with so many leaving and it's got me thinking what we as a club can learn from the past few seasons with the players leaving to turn it in to a positive, something to learn from for future signings.
Some of the common factors I've noticed with the players leaving:
-They come from outside the premier league -They signed on relatively large salaries -English was their second language -They initially showed signed of brilliance only to fade soon after -They didn't know very much about the club and its history before they signed
I know some of this is obvious to some but if you can think of some more common factors then just go ahead and post!
PS this is not an opportunity to slate the board so please stay on topic, this is just so we can as a group learn from the mistakes in our first few years in the new EPL
Additional suggestions so far: -The manager had a large influence on their initial signing (Jacksomething) -they had money grabbing agents (Highjack)
