Jimmy the blue Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 I just thought I'd set the ball rolling with this topic. Based on who we got and who we missed last night which players should we continue to chase and which positions still require strengthening?

Bill Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 Jeez, i'm so exhausted after this one i dont want another transfer window ever again. Well not for another 5 months at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wall Writer Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 I still think we need a top out and out goal scoring monster of a striker (to play with the Yak). I'll have to see how these new signings cut it on the premier pitches before making any judgement about other areas. But at least the numbers are looking a bit healthier now, and hopefully within a month or so, we'll have a fully fit squad and healthy competition for places.

We do need another striker but after splashing out yesterday I don't think Love will be within our remaining budget. Dean Ashton would be my preference but we can but hope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 I think like most teams we need a speedy left winger, i would have liked to see how Obinna would haved shaped up. and i also think we need a more reliable and consistent striker than Saha. Would have been ecstatic if we had got a couple of such like players in this window. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wall Writer Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 I'm not sure about the rumours that we've signed Love, but he'll arrive only in January, sounds a bit dubious to me. However, someone like that would be really good for us, maybe there's some truth in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue4Ever Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 (edited) im made up with the saha and fellani signings, gutted we missed out on obinna he is a quality player. hopefully castillo will be a good player but I doubt he will play for us for some reason. would have liked a good rightback. we need to start playing some proper football now!

Nevilles shit and I havent seen jacobson play, but on a free do you really think he is going to be any good? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 How many full backs do you want we have hibbert in reserve, and nevilles the best fullback we've had for a long time, or can you name a better one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know we havent had a good rightback in a long time but for me he just hasnt got a clue, a player with a bit of leadership should not be classed as a good player, ive watched him nearlly everygame, at the match and on tv and ive never seen him justify a captaincy and a guaranteed place in our team.

Blue4Ever Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 'Neville is a leader on the pitch, but tragically, most of the time his feet don't do the talking - far from it, in fact' - thats lescott, that proves my 1st point Hibberts better than him.

Where is that quote from? Its an interesting one. A bit shocking to speak out against your captain though, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 Are you saying that Lescott made that statement and rubbished his captain and team mate. I think thats made up Bollox. And you just killed your argument about wanting a better fullback, i said we are ok for full backs with Neville Jacobsson and Hibbert when he's fit, you said we could have done with a better fullback. Now you've just said Hibberts better than Neville. He's already here so how many fullbacks do you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now you've just said Hibberts better than Neville. He's already here so how many fullbacks do you want. I didnt kill my argument, the argument was that none of our fullbacks are good enough (or can at least pass a ball strait, hibbert can't neither but at least he can tackle) I would much rather have Hibbert rightback knowing that Neville would be on the bench myself, we would concede less goals anyway.

EFC-Paul Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 Neville is a more realiable and more consistant player then Hibbert tbh he's one player who we should have covered and shipped out by now imo, he's an actor now so wont see much of him soon http://www.moviewallpapers.net/images/wall...-thou-1-800.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris1eng Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 Would still like Cana to arrive, but we do need a forward to partner The Yak, Huntelaar would be my wish. I'm sure one of the papers will link some star forward with us in December Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sporting4ever Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 i shouldn't be plucking this, since this is a home boy, and i'd like him to stay long, but big sharks are already looking at him, and if he goes, i'd rather see him there than somewhere else, so check this there's more tube video of him, his 2 goals on our 5-3 defeat of benfica, and a few others.
