I know these are pesky facts but......

Webber arrived in April 2017.

We didn't sell James Maddison till June 2018

Webber was part of the decision to not loan him out again.

This in turn gave him the chance to develop which lead to a 25M transfer. (which balanced the books)

To gloss over this is clearly more cherry picking.
Nobody was offering us big money for Maddison after his Aberdeen loan.

        I think 23 games is fairly representative of a trend. (NCFC) - norwaay, Oct 25, 15:45:44
        
        The fact you don't think its not cherry picking says everything. (NCFC) - usacanary, Oct 25, 16:10:03

        What you're saying is (NCFC) - jamesward, Oct 25, 15:52:48
        
        What I am saying is look at the total record. (NCFC) - usacanary, Oct 25, 16:19:22
        
        And Maddison credits Farke anyway (NCFC) - norwaay, Oct 25, 15:56:21
        
        But of course in Norways world Webber gets not credit........ (NCFC) - usacanary, Oct 25, 16:12:20
        
        Webber gets great credit for bringing Farke in. (NCFC) - norwaay, Oct 25, 16:31:10
        
        It certainly would have been incredibly odd to loan out a player (NCFC) - norwaay, Oct 25, 15:47:53
        
        He wasnt worth 25M at the start of that season...... (NCFC) - usacanary, Oct 25, 16:26:18
