They're quality players fella, but they're both slow as hell. the lack of pace is crippling and as much as rate the two lads they'll never bring the pace we need. Technique alone isn't enough, just like Buckley's pace alone isn't enough.
Spot on - Buckley's pace with Giaccherini's ability would be awesome!!
 
So what's he going to do with the 60 odd million profit we'll make this season? Leave it in the bank to gain interest? Give the board members a nice pay out? He can't take it for himself, we don't owe him anything as he converted his investment into shares. They'll be hell on if we don't spend in the summer. Hell on.

I just have that feeling he wont spend mate. hope I'm wrong tho.
 
Ok, I'm quite enjoying this. Funky and Ultimate Makem are both making very good points. Let's leave out the spending spree issue for a minute and stick the rest together. We have Fletcher and Wickham, neither of whom are Bent, but both are capable of more than four goals before January. We have Altidore who can deliver against the class of Germany, Nigeria and Bosnia. We have, as UM said, two very capable players who can do a job in the hole. So apart from a fast and skillful player on the left wing, we have the makings of a very good attack. So where are the goals?

That's my point. We have good ingredients, and we're making a lousy cake. Why?
