It's not an exact science, no... But you can, nonetheless, make a judgement and form an opinion. First and foremost you have to ask yourself what circumstances might prompt this so called 'life changing offer' in the next 12-18 months. Do you think it's possible we might be getting slightly ahead of ourselves?
"Do you think it's possible we might be getting slightly ahead of ourselves?"
Absolutely x3.
The whole conversation was driven by Sheffield United sacking their manager yesterday and if they'd made a replacement even more quickly we wouldn't have been discussing things.
There is certainly no guarantee that Critch will get a 'life changing offer' in the next 12-18 months, it could perhaps be argued that this could make him more likely to accept such an offer if he were to receive one but you make a fair point.
To be honest, I was always talking about IF Critchley was to receive an offer from anybody and not specifically Sheffield United and was discussing what weight somebody like him would put on money if he was to receive such an offer and didn't actually think that Critch was on his way to Sheffield United although I did say that it was not impossible.
Although I think you are right in saying that we are getting ahead of ourselves, I think the board - that's AVFTT - is perhaps moving in the right direction as it can't be a week since plenty on here had him down as the next Liverpool manager !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's not impossible but is an example of getting even more ahead of ourselves.
To be honest, I agree with just about everything you have said regarding the whole situation - if there is/was any situation - and agree with you on almost everything apart from the value of money and there is no right and wrong answer on that one.
