Yeah lets just give up altogether because we couldn't prize Xavi, Ronaldo and Messi away from Barca and Real respectively.

What do people expect?
I've said before, i'm not jumping for joy at the signings of Henderson and Downing but the more i think about it, the more i'm happy they're on board.
As for Adam, he's a player i've wanted us to signing after seeing him playing for Blackpool a few times, he made that much of an impression.

These 3 guys will add a lot to our team.

not xavi, ronaldo or messi.
 
and the positivity is identical to the keane/barry summer. everyone said the exact same shite about them two.
 
Would these players want to join us? The Sanchez and Hazards are no go. As are probably Aguero and Pastore.

Dont think we've done to badly tbh.

Me too. I reckon he'll will be our main man in midfield this season.
 
i dont think he's mobile enough to ever be a top cm. he hasn't got the first touch to compensate for it, from what i've seen.

Was Alonso mobile?

He hasn't got the first touch to compensate for it...you know that by not watching much football?
 
Kenny wants young home grown/uk players and he's got just about the best in there position 😛

could we have spent it on 3 more boring players.

not one of them excite me in the slightest.

Look on the bright side, your dog will be a lot happier.
 
I don't know if I'm excited but I'm definitely keen to see how Adam and Henderson get on.

Henderson is the one that gets me truly excited. Has the potential to be the best midfielder in the league.

Indeed. Come back Ryan Babel and Mark Gonzales.

I wanted better generally but I also am keen to see these two.

Give us some names that would have got you excited then...
[/quote]

Hazard, Mata, Banega, Lavezzi, Navas, Pastore and Shakiri.
 
I'm looking forward to watching Adam and Henderson too.

I don't expect much from Downing so if he excels, it'll be a very pleasant surprise.

Also, I really hope we don't waste money on Dann or Enrique as neither is good enough for us.

I always worry when I see a post from you with the word "keen" in it.

If it includes the words Rafa or accounts it's even more worrying.

Yeah, Id honestly be more excited with a host of players I've barely heard of and that I've seen an awful lot less of. Hoping they'd turn into a bargain. Chances are they'd be a Quaresma or Babel though.

I think that every time you saw those stats come up in European games for how much ground a player has covered, Alonso was always
in the top two. He was a lot more mobile than people remember.
 
I'm not especially excited by our signings, but I'm certain they will not be disaster signings in the same way Keane and Aquilani were, so that's something.
