So the logic is, if they sound foreign they must be good? Or what? I'm not getting it. What about Jay Rodriguez? He sounds foreign but he's English and very good. Or Barry Maguire, who is Dutch but very average? Or Robert Cullen, he sounds English, but he plays for Japan?

To be fair I looked up Aboubakar and he's not done as well in Portugal as I thought, HFFP was right on that, but before he went there he was very good. I don't see what being foreign has to do with it, if he was called Bill Smith he'd still be a great signing. I also don't get why Kenedy isn't a good signing for Watford, he was a shining light in an otherwise crap Chelsea season.

Martins Indi has been the subject of offers from some pretty good clubs, that's usually a good indicator of how decent they are. He's prone to getting booked a lot though, so I won't be sticking him in my Fantasy Football team any time soon.
I just assumed Aboubakar was still decent, but then again I think he's quite young so to write him off after one bad season might be premature. Indi Martins I know is top class, I think Imbula is very good too really. I'm not mentioning you know who again but he's very insular with his viewpoints and condescending with it
 
Congrats on landing Mason. I thought he'd pick Sunderland but perhaps linking up with Jake (they graduated from our academy together) clinched it for him.

If he can recover his pre-injury form, you have a fine player on your books. Excellent engine, combative, eye for a pass and chips in with his fair share of goals. I can see him complementing THudd rather well <ok>

With 4 ex-Spurs players and one ex-Spurs coach now at the Tigers, you've been my 'second' team for quite some time now. Same can be said for many Spurs fans I know - we even call you 'Hull Hotspurs'. Just bloody stay in the PL for more than a season so that we can watch more of you <laugh>

All jokes aside, best of luck this year - you've got off to a better than expected start and are finally showing ambition in the market.

<applause>

We only need 34 points for safety!!
 
It's somebody else he hasn't heard of, this time no random Portuguese fella will crop up to save his face by saying he's currently ****e, great signing for them
Some random bloke???
Hffp has been here longer than you and he's a decent well respected poster not a desperate arse licking **** looking for friendship like you.
How old are you again. Let's get this cleared up. Once and for all. Then I'll show what a lying bullshitting **** you are.
