I think its fair to say we aren't respected in the PL

agree or disagree?

its obviously going to be tough to buy quality for the forseeable and any players we make clubs will just wanna come and snatch them

It could be that people don't want to take a chance on us in case we go back down. I hope we prove them all wrong, but I think QPR might have set the precedent for buying in a ton of players and then sinking - maybe that's why they don't want to risk it.

Malky's probably better off going for some players with Prem experience though, even if they're less glamorous than some of these foreigners...

The only argument with that way of thinking is that southampton didnt seem to not get their targets, maybe as they have prem league pedigree although it was 10yrs ago or how even long... Swansea didn't struggle to attract players either but that maybe down to their playing style i suppose...
