I am with Cest on this one, but then I very rarely get excited this time of year and even the last day, as usually nothing happens at all anyway. I have never heard of any of these players, years ago I probably would have as I used to watch a lot of European competition these days I watch very little, and yes I know its football manager but i used to play it then search the good players out in real life to see how good/bad they actually were, I have the latest installed but havnt even started it. (same with everyone from the last 10 years). these days i havnt a clue so i just go with the flow. If they are **** we will struggle (which will probably happen, we are Sunderland after all) If they are great we wont (which very rarely happens but could).
Neither excited or bored for me, skeptical more so. I thought I had quite a decent knowledge of football but there's names we're being linked with every day that I've never heard of. Not sure if that's a good thing. Keep the faith I say. Let things take shape and judge at christmas.
