Quickest bite this season !

Home, home at last, been dreaming of home for weeks. Been baking in plus 45 degrees every day and shivering in minus "fek its freezing" every night. Got to be the absolute worst job I've ever done endurance wise, I'm totally spent, thank Brian its over. Great to be back in Jackland though.

In my opinion £12m for a decent defender is a little expensive, £12m for a decent midfielder is good business, vfm even (we sold Joe for £15m), but £12m for a decent striker is, as the birdy says, cheap cheap cheap.

For me Bony is doing a great job considering he missed pre-season and played only a bit part in our pre-season friendlies due to paper work delays; His training, fitness and time with the team further disrupted by international duties with the Ivory Coast.

Out of all our summer signings, excluding Alvaro, Bony's spent the least time with the team and this has manifest itself in his touch and link play not being up to the mark yet. This is understandable when you consider all the disruption he faced in the 4/5 weeks he's been with us, but it will improve as he and the team gel.

On top of everything else he's carrying a slight but deep ankle sprain which is hindering his quickness off the mark, general movement around the pitch and his shooting, but it is healing so we can expect his general play to improve over the next month or so.

4 goals and 2 assists is a pretty good return considering don't you think ? I do.

Regarding his price, £12m for last seasons top scorer and player of the year in the Eredivisie is pretty reasonable to me. 31 odd goals shows great potential and it is this potential we've bought.

Imho, £12m Bony is a Goldilocks investment, not too much, not too little but just right. At £12m Bony doesn't have to be RVP, I wish, to show a virtual return, he only has to be decent 12-15 goals, to get a return.

Bony is a shrewd investment, our board fought for the price and got it so, adding this to the 10 years of shrewd management, its a definite "Hats off" to Jenkins and the board from me.

Laudrup has the tools he wanted so the pressure is certainly on him to perform and I'm sure he will.

Good post, stumpy. <ok>

NJ: "especially as the fish im refering to doesnt Even post here anymore"

Your little side-swipes are becoming tiresome, NJ. Putting out comments to 'get fish' - especially fellow Jacks? Come on. Thought you were better than that. OK maybe not. Take a look out your window right now you may see a life going by. :)
 
"fellow supporters " no, just you my darling <hug>

Anyway sweetheart you were the one telling us that you lived in two of the best Gay capitals in the world, what are people supposed to think ? ...<laugh>
All I did is ask you why you lived in the two best gay capitals in the world and you went all "Diva" on me !!

You should stop acting like a drag er, I mean , drama queen and take it on the chin ..so to speak ..<laugh>

I actually think gay people are great, more women for the rest of us <ok>
 
Well that didn't take long. <laugh>

Yes, people who live in places with a high gay population are all gay. <doh> Anyway, not rising to the bait because I can see you're in the mood for your version of fun. To be honest, other posters can do without yet another spat. :)

Nights are clearly drawing in over in Scandinavia because there seems there's nothing to do other than bait your fellow supporters. Unfortunately, in amongst your many decent posts this is a bad trait of yours that I thought you'd left behind, NJ. It's a shame.
 
...<laugh>

Your the one who keeps biting my friend, just let sleeping dogs lie and get back to being civil . You've lookbit silly jumping down my throat earlier in the thread and your just trying to deflect once again, the reason I posted that comment was to see if your still turned on by the things I say, im glad to report that your love for me is as strong as it ever was !!...<laugh>

Let it lie man ! let it lie <ok>
