It's one thing having an overriding approach or philosophy, but in reality if you pay £15 million for Neil Maupay when you could have Danny Wellbeck for free then that's just stupid.
WaterboyI still think DS has a role for Lansbury.

Lansbury's career.
Unbelievably talented.
Injury prone.
Bone fucking idle.
But in all fairness he’s never worked under this coach. If Dean fancies the task I have to respect his judgementLansbury's career.

Barney, Lansbury for starters.
The big difference is my friend, Wellbeck is at an age where he isn't going to improve and to be honest he's never been what one could call prolific, while Maupay is young enough to improve season on season for the next five or six seasons.
Wellbeck is 28 (hardly over the hill) and has spent his career playing for Manchester United, Arsenal and England.
Maupay is 22 and is a Championship player. There is no gaurentee he'll ever hit the heights Wellbeck has.
£15 million is a massive gamble.
Wellbeck on a free is pretty risk free. You know you're getting a premier league player.
Has he signed yet ?
