    i just looked at our players again i think we got a strong deference yes it would be good to get someone in but i think striking is more important as thats what problem we had last season no end game at all and with only 2 in the squad we need 1 back up for both so 2 we need i think

    i agree andy. i personally think we need four strikers but i don't mind if one is a loan, although it wouldn't be the end of the world if we only sign one more and give young morris a chance. i'd prefer to see one of the two be a player who can drop deeper into midfield, playing off a lone forward, indeed quagliarella can do that job but my brain cannot compute us finalising a deal for him! i do think we may look for another centre back though. gut feeling <ok>

    If we couldn't stretch to meeting Alderweireld's personal terms, I would think it unlikely that we could meet Quagliarella's expectations. Unless, that is, he's a guy who puts a new challenge, e.g. playing in the PL, ahead of his pension pot. <ok>

    Fer's just tweeted in perfect English, somehow I don't think there's going to be a language barrier at all.

    Everton fans are rather bitter on twitter. "If Fer was any good he wouldn't be signing for Norwich", for example. I'm tempted to fire back: "So Everton had a policy of buying crap players in January, did they?"

    Ignore them or just post a clip of Holty turning their defence inside out before tucking it away.

    Don't get your hopes up on this one. Just heard from reliable sources that the deal has been deFERred.

    After a couple of beers at a party I came up with a better version of a little scrimmage:

    Aftrap, ingooi, een opstootje,
    Hou de bal laag, een prachtige aanval, bravo, alles of niets;

    Naar voren, City, wees niet bang,
    Rustig aan, grijp je kans,
    Hoera, we hebben gescoord.

    Don't need to apologise for any Dutch mis-typings, you could be making it all up and most of us wouldn't know, all Double Dutch to me:smile:
