I am happy with the buys, except we need an extra forward...The new players are good, but noen of the deserves above 7.
1. Shorey is not as good as Bouma --> 0 points given
2. Guzan is a sub --> 0 points
3. Friedel is old, may last as first choice for just one season, has shown rustiness already-> 2 point
4. Cuellar: is he better than Davies/Laursen or the man he replaced: Mellberg? No! Bench! --> 0 points
5. L. Young: good to have a RB --> 5 points
6. Sidwell gives us strength in depth, but is not a starter unless we use 3 CM and drop one of the three starters we have --> 0 points
7. Milner: Good to have a right winger --> 6 points
8. Davies, already was here last year, so not a reinforcement --> 0 points
9. No striker --> -1
8 players 12 points is 1,5 points average. I gave 1 point because I think the average was so low!!! Don't be mad! This is just my honest opinion. :shock:
If I wasn't on a board where I'd get a yellow card for abuse, i'd call you a total idiot who's looking for attention, but I am so i won't say that.
I will say, however, that if you really rate our window as a 1 out of 10 you are sorely deluded and I fail to see a scenario in which you would even be remotely happy. We have signed 8 quality players this window. i would say the worst player we've signed is Sidwell (albeit I still haven't seen much of Guzan) and if he is the worst then we have done bloody well.
As I have mentioned elsewhere, at the start of the window an extra striker would have been bottom of the list of priorities. it would have been nice, but we have the same strikers that played the VAST majority of last season, and we were fine.
I do however doubt that you really think it's a 1 out of 10, some might think you were looking for attention, but I can't say that.
Someone needs to lighten up a bit here...If I wouldn't get carded for calling you an idiot I would too! I love attention :?
