1. If we sell Saido, we need to invest the money in a promising, young goalscorer either from the UK or in a top European league.
2. TP is a pretty sensible guy and would only buy those players who would definitely do a job for us. I know that he did spend money at Stoke on players that were poor.

1. Why look for a promising young goalscorer either from the UK or a top European league when we've already got one under contract till June 2017? Albion's recent record of buying goalscorers hasn't been great has it? £16 million on Anichebe and Ideye.
2. You can bet TP didn't agree the transfer fees paid for the players he bought at Stoke. That would have been the work of his DofF John Rudge and the Stoke chairman, Peter Coates. Not TP's fault if those two can't negotiate.
