    I don't give a **** about the 3 teams above us in the league you mention I only care about the signings we have made and make.
  2. zab6359
    Don't think so.
  3. zab6359
    We've signed direct replacements because of injuries and a youth team player? So no real additions or improvements?
  4. zab6359
    So who has been a great addition in your opinion bearing in mind the model of recruitment we are following?
  5. zab6359
    I didn't ask who had been OK or failures? I asked if we had made any great signings.

    I like Nakamba but DL no way not for me yet he cost 15 mil! AEG has 6 and 6 come on he's no where near Jota's level. Other than Wesley I agree with no real bad signings he was bad! But my point is there are no stand out signings that I think we can sell in 2-3 years at a big profit to fund future investment which is the model we are supposedly following.
  7. zab6359
    I know we had a lot of players to buy I'm not questioning that.

    I agree was always going to be difficult. When you say pretty decent hit rate I'm not so sure aren't we supposedly following the Borussia Dortmund model of reducing the spending by scouting better and finding young players who we can develop get a few good years out of then sell on for a significant profit and re-invest? I don't feel Konsa, Guilbert and Targett have been solid but they have been OK though, all have had good games but not solid imo, Guilbert would be the player I like most out of those three but him and Targett are probably at a level that suits them I don't really see them pushing on any further, I do think Konsa shows promise and can improve a fair bit. Nakamba shows some potential yes, jury is still out for me with DL some people seem to be always looking through Man City/Brazil rose tinted glasses when they talk about him but bearing in mind his age he could turn out to be a good signing if he develops. Wes was hit and miss? He was very poor worse signing of the summer for me, I think we would have done better signing two 11mil players.

    To add for me only Heaton and Mings.
  10. zab6359
    Which have stood out as a great signing? In your opinion just asking.
  11. zab6359
    This sounds about right to me
  12. zab6359
    It was but just wasn’t a priority this window, the money pot isn’t bottomless. I think he has loads of potential.
  13. zab6359
    If that's true it's truly tragic!
  14. zab6359
    To be fair I'm not a Jota fan I feel Dean took a gamble and it didn't work out, but in a mid table Bundesliga team playing as a central mid I reckon he could do well!
  15. zab6359
    For 18 mil we should snap there arm off!
  16. zab6359
    Means absolutely nothing though in reality! He was linked to Us, Spurs, West Ham and a few others never heard HB mentioned once and that's where he ends up. Of those mentioned any decent ambitious footballer would have opted for Spurs and Jose!
  17. zab6359
    He would have been a real marque signing for us a real statement of intent, I'm actually a bit pissed off about this one as I feel Villa are a bigger pull than HB. Just shows a lot of the paper talk is bollocks and we were probably never really in for him.
  18. zab6359
    By the time you factor in work permits I think you need to do that sort of business in the summer just to drawn out.
  19. zab6359
    It will be interesting, and probably shows our interest/Spurs interest was just paper talk with no substance which is a shame as at that price I'd have loved the club to take a chance on him.

    It's embarrassing to see at a semi final, and can imagine it may have been a bit intimidating for our players let alone Leicesters to many idiots out there. I understand that emotions run high but it just stops the majority of fans paying respect to the players and players paying respect to the fans after a great victory.

    €23 million for Piatek is very good business, we shouldn't be getting linked to players like Selke his goal scoring record is worse than Samatta's!
  22. zab6359
    It does! A pacy forward/winger please.
  23. zab6359
    Looks like Palace are going to land Nathan Ferguson, good buy for them has lots of potential and possible great sell on value. Baggies really are shithouse they should have let him go to Barca so we could get him for next to nothing in the summer.
  24. zab6359
    Let's hope he is true to his word and his team's do finish the season stronger, our fitness does seem to have really improved lately.

    Good to see Andre Gomez back in training less than 3 months after the injury, hope McGinn has as good a recovery.
