Course not but compared to our other cms he had something different and imo was their best player that game and his attributes I felt would have suited KM ball perfectly |  |

He was different class that day. As friendlies go, that was a quite competitive one and he shone. His form since, strongly suggests Frims is correct. I thought the same that day. We bought Darren Currie on the basis he played well for Brighton against us. That worked out okay |  | |  |

Yeah Frimley you nutter. 🤪 Hard not to see it as an unfortunate oversight when we had a front-row seat to how good he was that summer. He stuck out to laymen like me as the best player on the pitch. He must have stuck out to Leeds' recruitment team too. £2m was a steal. |  | |  |

Im sticking up for Frimmers here. I was at that match and he was the best player on the pitch by quite a margin. I guess we had Cajuste and Phillips lined up at that stage tho. |  | |  |

It was an FA Cup match rather than a friendly, but a good performance for Chester led us to signing Jon Walters. |  |

Yep, on the negative side of the ledger we signed Ahadme after Burton played us - he gave Woolfie & Edmundson (I think?) the biggest battering they had all season. We probably didn't make close to the £1m reported we sold him for but amazing that we probably doubled our money on him. Call it an Ipswich tax.. Charlton retribution fee, whatever lol. |  | |  |

A shame we didn't sign another Chester striker after we played them in the cup in 79/80. A certain Ian Rush. |  |

With hindsight Frimmers is undoubtedly right, but I totally get where Matt is coming from and tbh I was in the same camp in thinking that it would be dangerous to put too much store by a performance in a pre season friendly |  |

Usually I would agree with you. Totally But that game the ball stuck to him like glue. If there was ever a player to grab he was it. |  |

Tanaka. Oh what could have been on 08:10 - Aug 19 with 845 views | Rimsy | I agree with frimmers. At the time we were throwing money around like confetti. 2mil on him was an absolute bargain, you're never going to lose on a deal like that. Still, we did get Phillips (whose year wages would have payed for Tanaka). |  |
