    Ready and waiting to embrace new players (not literally, one court case is enough:oops: ). All I need is a brace of signings, preferably with foreign names (so if they are crap, I won't be aware of it). Come on, Uncle Les. :emoticon-0137-clapp

    Yeah, I'm thinking similar. Looks a good potential fit. Love the passion Italian players bring too.

    I hope we make some more signings soon, I need a new username. It's currently tainted by associations with a **** Dutch lager and Ronald's hair!!

    My source with the convincing voice tells me a lot is happening today. I reminded him that he said that about yesterday. He shrugged. I'm not sure he's all he's cracked up to be.

    We can certainly let one leave quickly....but not so quickly coming in.

    Seemed a nice guy and wish him all the best, but no big loss. 1.25 million. Being reported, that's to cheap IMO.

    Love Cuco....but you know me, I'd keep all our players as pets...hate to see them go. However Cuco was a decent back up....so we must assume that someone else is in the pipeline. #hopefulface

    We weren't in major need of a RB before we got Pied, now we have him and were selling Cuco were back where we started again, pointless

    One year left on his deal here and cost us less if I'm correct? I would take 1.25m for him.

    Presumably Puel prefers Pied, a player he knows. But we need more players this season...unless the club is struggling to keep its wage bill at the correct level for FPP (not that I know that) after being forced by circumstances to increase the wages of so many players.

    Oh we were in need of a RB! (In my opinion)

    So we're looking to bring in another RB, do we really need 3, plus an academy player waiting in the background? Pied and Cedric would be sufficient.

    So one on and one in the wash is enough? Injuries happen, sadly. I know it's difficult....I guess that is where utility players come in.

    Yes, utility players and kids. We don't need three for each set position. When we had Martina and Cedric, I said we needed a RB still because sadly Martina isn't good enough for where we need to be. Cedric needs to improve from his first two performances, as they were not great. May need to hope Pied is up to the mark.

    Too early to say, but Pied looked solid enough against Watford....as long as he can resist trying to head past Forster. :) You have to admire his confidence though....it was a very tight angle.
