I have an interesting decision to make, and I'm wondering what some of you would do in this case.
My Director of Football found a goalkeeper playing with Hendon, one level higher than we are. His name is Christian Lang. He's 25, and he's from Germany.
Christian is Hendon's first choice, and he's played well for them. However, he's been playing on a non-contract arrangement.
Lang has agreed to contract terms with us. He'd become our top wage earner, on £110/week. I have room in the wage budget to take on Christian's salary.
He is a better goalkeeper than our current starter, Mark Crabb. Our staff rate Lang at 4 stars, to 3 for Crabb, and while I know star ratings are not perfect, when I compare their attributes myself, I can see that Lang is the better player.
However, Crabb has played pretty well for me so far, for just under half the salary (£50/week).
What do some of you think I ought to do? Accept the deal and bring Lang into the team, or decline it and stick with Crabb?
Hope to hear from a few of you.
