unique 466 Posted February 3, 2019 It is disappointing to see both Murphy twins struggling to establish themselves in the Premier League. It was rumoured that after buying Jacob, Benitez was considering going after Josh as well. With just three goals between them so far, you have to wonder whether they would have been more effective if they had ended up at the same club. Anyhow, with a rumoured £23m pocketed, and with Hernandez and Buendia more or less their direct replacements, Norwich City have arguably orchestrated one of the best pieces of transfer business in the history of the Championship. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
splendidrush 720 Posted February 3, 2019 So many players just can't wait to get to the Premiership, regardless of whether they get gametime. Pritchard was another who could very well pass us as we're promoted. Yes,the money is nice but surely there's more to football than that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
percy varco 253 Posted February 3, 2019 It is a short carear, the big cash is in the Prem, if a Prem chance comes along most players will take it and it is also what players aspire to for fotballing and cash reasons. Mainly cash. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thirsty Lizard 3,215 Posted February 4, 2019 I had an interesting chat with someone who works at the club (who is in a good position to know) about the Murphy's a couple of years back. He told me that everyone at the club was convinced that the Murphy's would make very good Championship players, but they really were 50/50 as to whether they would be able to cut it in the Premier League. As things stand at the present it would seem that that viewpoint was justified. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Midlands Yellow 4,682 Posted February 4, 2019 Far better replacements we have now. What price for this pair ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
