The issue for me is that we seem to have only been linked with players from the Premier League which is highly inflated. I was hoping we would be looking at shopping in Holland, Belgium, Portugal and France where I am sure you can pick up some real bargains.
If you think back to previous seasons we get linked with all these players and nothing materialises, then we sign some 1 who hasn't been mentioned in the press. News only breaking as the deals are being finalised. I think this season will be pretty much the same. I think the interest in the man utd 3 & Laarson is real, but once Bruce comes back from his holidays we will make some moves that we don't see coming.
A thought the croats or serbians etc. Not likely to get a vidic but they normally have a bit pace & are hard as nails. More importantly nowadays, relatively cheap.
Hopefully someone with Bardsley's attitude but with the skills of Sess would be ideal, doubt he's out there though.
I have been told still to expect insomnia at the SOL in time for pre-season, though not as sure to happen as it was a few weeks ago - probably coz there maybe a sky4 club making enquiries, trying to get the lad on the cheap. Whilst there is no doubt Larsson can put in a decent cross, and he will have my full support - I am underwhelmed by this signing, as he is slow and a poor mans David Beckham - hope I am proved wrong, but I very rarely am. Lol Bart
A poor mans Beckham or a rich mans Henderson? I prefer the latter (no slur on Jordan, but his delivery was horse **** 83.7% of the time....)
You are not wrong there BB - but its still a shame Hendo's potential was not realised at the SOL. Lol Bart
Must be lots of good european players, hopefully the scouts are spying on them..But please not many more Africans. Don't want the big names jetting for in jan.
