    You are right but I am being realistic. All the the GM lover cant see what is in front of their nose. If Bony stays we have a shout, If he goes just cant see us staying up.

    Far too negative here bob, and cannot agree with you on Emnes being just a squad player. As for LB, surely you have not forgotten Taylor is on our books, as for Poz, Pablo, Michu, I'm sure Siggy/Shelvey/Emnes will be a good upgrade to the Spanish three, get positive man!................<cheers>

    Emnes couldnt get in a poor chapionship side ffs. He is a good squad player and nothing more. I will give you he had 2 good performances last year against cardiff and Sunderland.

    Yes it will be, have some faith man! how will we miss Michu? He did buggar all last season, Canas average at best, Poz has potential but couldn't keep out of the trouble involving Canas, none of these players are outstanding, so lets not get our knickers in a twist, lets wait and see how things develop, some patience is needed of course!................<ok>

    Couldn't disagree more with you, Boro are where they are for a reason, and no way would I take anything they do as evidence of anything, and certainly not regarding a quality player like Emnes who was wasted with them in the Championship, I'll take Huw Jenkins judgement on this over your flawed reasoning any minute of the day, So negative you are, go and sink a beer man!...................<laugh>

    Get your nose out of HJ arse and you might see where we really are. Emnes is a tidy player, he is no better than what we have or what we had. I actually think he is a tidy player. But he is no more than a squad player, which is what he was when he was here last season on loan.As a striker if you think and average of 1 goal every6 games is quality then so be it. I actually think it is poor. No point in replying I have seen the light and put the ignore button on. Should have done it ages ago.

    Emnes was also excellent against Napoli away and Newcastle away when he won us a penalty. In fact he looked good in every game.

    Just can't win with the negheads on here. With any new signing it's a case of hasn't played yet - he could be **** for us but with Emnes he's judged on his previous record.

    Best to let them stew in their own negativity.

    Jesus jack have you listened to any thing I said. Yes he is a tidy signing. Yes he is a tidy player. But, what I am saying he is no more than a squad player, If we keep the squad we have now. So who will you start him in front of. Maybe Bony, Gomis. Tell me. I am not being negative, but some on here are saying he is class, well he isnt. he is a good signing and a good squad player nothing more.

    GOOD NEWS! READ ALL ABOUT IT!.......................<laugh>





    Sigurdsson has the potential to be a more creative, team-focused attacking midfielder than Michu, he has already got double Michu's assists?...So can we all look at the positives here for crying out loud!.................<cheers>

    TLF it would be like a self fulfilling prophecy in reverse, if that makes any sense.

    the Ngog signing will always go down as one of the great mysteries and I also feared the worse with Emnes tbh. However I have to say he was good in every game he played and he was superb against Napoli, infact the turning point in that game was when we took him off - a huge Monk blunder! like others have said hes more than a squad player, hes a player who can come on to influence games

    As it stands, our squad is as strong as last seasons squad imo with the addition of Gomis, Gylfi and Ki returning. However if (and I know it's a bloody big if) we can get Montero, Payet and Besic (who as of yet still hasn't signed for anyone) we will be stronger than last season imo.

    Anybody with news on JDG? Doesn't seem to have been linked with anyone?

    Without losing anyone else Valley. If Bony goes that will be a massive blow. I have seen we have had a second bid for Deeney turned down.

    Of course with nobody else going. If Bony goes, I fear this place will go to DEFCON1 <laugh>
