Robinson, a standout Championship winger/CAM, was signed and immediately deployed as a CF in the Premier League. At the time I used to tear my hair out watching Robinson's light jog press but overlooking that it was still a tough ask for a player to join a new club & adapt to a new role in the PL. See also how we signed Freeman and deployed a flat 3 midfield.
We then swapped CR for OB who had a dismal record before he joined us. Attribute wise he's a wide player and yet again another signing that positionally was a bad fit for Wilderball. Whatever Mitchell & Wilder thought they could make of him only they'll know.
You didn't even need the benefit of hindsight to see just how poorly Wilder recruited in the PL. Alot of our current woes are repercussions of his transfer strategy.
