Re: Tella
Tella and Maatsen should have been bought, no question. We offered £30 million for Maatsen, but he didn’t want to come and he’s now spending most of his time warming the bench at Chelsea Tella - Saints weren’t inclined to sell to us and he’s now spending most of his time warming the bench in Germany

Re: The Project
Nope
Every manager has their own way of doing things and this usually takes more than a couple of transfer windows to implement because they need to change the playing staff sufficiently
That’s why managers getting sacked after a few months is ridiculous
