Whilst Melmeth can certainly be a strong albeit expensive asset for my club as well, my primary motivation for signing him was to ensure he could finally play NT games again. The previous owner either had no idea how game shape works in this game, or was deliberately keeping his GS down because they wanted to sabotage our NT for some stupid reason.
So the desire to help both club and country convinced me to make the purchase without any hesitation or regret. I also did a Whitebeard this season by going for an all Australian line-up, and actually made a net profit in the off-season thanks to my two foreigners fetching a higher price than I expected...
