I was suggesting we sign players for the first team with the potential to recoup some or all of the fee we pay rather than players first team ready with no sell on potential as in a 32 yr old Simon Murray.

maolida is a poor example to use as he would surely have some sell on as relatively young.

Not really sure what the balance is you are referring to between Murray and Maolida? Two very different players at very different stages of their careers. I would like both but would only want to pay a fee for one of them. Not an exact science obviously but the more we can wash our money through player sales the further it goes.
