What would you rather when we’re signing players, talent or character?
 
why does it have to be either/or ? Surely there must be plenty of talented players with good characters. I think both boxes need to be ticked when signing players.

Both, you need a decent personality without arrogance and being an awkward fecker,
 
Thomas Butler had character by the bucket load, had the dressing room in stitches, Michu kept himself to himself, who'd you choose?

Ok, lets break it down, Behaviour/character [they both come together in my opinion] and Talent, Michu was a character in his own way you haven't got to be the life and soul of a party to have character.
