It's positive to see we're moving so quickly. Not so positive that it looks like we're signing someone who might be some sort of Nazi nutter.

Argh... I'm a bit impartial to all of this, I'm gutted we've lost Alonso, I just want someone who might transform us on the pitch into an even greater attacking force.
We could be incredibly lucky with Aquilani and he could both prove his fitness AND prove to be good, it's a big ask though and a fucking big gamble.

Well given his problems in the past, I'd imagine it would be a pretty thorough medical. And I'm obviously gutted about Alonso, but I really want us to sign a replacement we can be excited about filling the gap adequately.
I don't know about all this fascist stuff, we don't know how true it is, and I guess like G-Mak says, we're not too sure what it all means within the context of our society, although you'd imagine it's pretty much the same principals as we think.

You'd really think Rafa would do his homework on player backgrounds, given we've been dogged by everything from players being homesick (Kromkamp, Garcia, Arbeloa), supposed bad attitudes (Keane), and the downright mentally challenged (Bellamy, Pennant).
For a manager who prides himself on his team spirit and dressing room harmony too..
