Thing is, i think we are all trying to second guess KK, which won't ever work. He's always been a guy to make strange looking choices. For example if i was him, i would be going all out for attacking talent but it seems obvious KK is focusing slightly more on the defence. I think he believes his side will always attack and score goals, therefore it's a bigger priority to sort the defence.

Only a sad person would edit a wiki page like that.

I couldnt give a fuck what you think as i said im only passing on info that i heard If you don't care what people think, why are you on a football forum? Anyway back to subject, you are going to have to give ALOT more information.

Simple formation and line up; Given Beye Coloccini Faye Enrique Butt Guthrie Gutirrez N'Zogbia Owen Martins

As well as teamwork, style, fitness and quality. You don't seem to have alot of faith in Kevin Keegan. Maybe that is the reason for all this pessimism.

You see that's where you've taken me wrong. I know I'm like a bull in a china shop sometimes. I'm not having a go at the thread, it's a perfectly fine thread, it's is predictable though that IMO someone would start one like this. It happens almost every year. For me though there are two seperate things: One thing that excites me is that Footie is back. One thing that makes me aprehensive and nervous and pessimistic is that we are not bloody ready for it In your opinion and it's this negative false opinion that i believe Dave is reffering to. Kevin Keegan will be undoubtedly ready, that's what should matter to you, nothing else. How is one opinion true and the other false ? They are both opinions, they are therefore both correct in each person's eyes. The accepting of other peoples opinions is something that footie forums in general don't do a good job at. It's not the forum's fault of course it's the people posting. Back to the point, I'm still to be convinced that we are ready for the season, which is one week away. The squad isn't big enough, the quality that we can put out on the field consistently is not there. All in my opinion. Apoligies, false wasn't the correct word. Imagine last season KK had exactly the same squad of players, except for the whole season. Now do you think he would have finished top half? because i am in no doubt that we would have. If you look at the squad now, it hasn't got any bigger but it is better (IMO). Out's: Emre, Ramage, Rozehnal, Carr all of which played next to no part last season. Yet we have brought in 3 new faces, with Coloccini expected to be added too. Now i'm not going to try and convince you that we will be a great side or infact that i will be happy about not adding more to the squad. What i am saying is, because of the above, there are reasons to be optimistic.

I believe he will be gone by the end of this window... thank fuck.

One thing that makes me aprehensive and nervous and pessimistic is that we are not bloody ready for it We were ready last season and look how that turned out It's all about the signings no matter when they come in, if Keegan can get the level we've been seeing we have nowt to worry about. Is it shite all about the signings, i'm sick of hearing it. Last seasons failure was not down to personel which KK proved when he turned our results and performances around. The reason we fell short of our league targets were because of; Sam Allardyce and more specifically his tactics, fitness, use of our talent, motivation and negativity. None of which KK won't have us prepared for.

Completely agree with you Dave. What i have noticed is that the negativity is on this football forum more than anywhere else. Don't seem to see it as much amongst friends or actually at the games. I'm not worried about next season in the slightest, very much looking forward to it.
-
Definately 4 or 5 in total.
-
Funny enough KK told the official website exactly the same thing! On a different note, i think Guthrie will be a great signing. I would love it if he scored a few goals for us.
-
Is it not possible that Keegan brought in Cox as a trusted side-kick while he got the house in order for the first few months and now that we've started to settle down abit Cox has just moved on? NoNo obviously Cox hates Ashley and can't bare to work for him.
-
Seems fairly obvious we know what price they want. If we are in the driving seat we can bide our time, in order to see what other targets are available. Would be a good aquisition IMO.
-
Still hoping we get Seba Larsson TBH, i believe he is the next one we will sign.
-
Because it is not a real quote Yer, i realised that. I was simply pointing out the mistakes. Poor effort.
-
If he is unsure whether it will go through, why is he saying goodbye to their fans?
-
Just a couple of teething problems, all will be resloved or he wouldn't be saying that shite.

No that's fine, it's probably the general view. What is impatient, is the circumstances in which people are twitching for confirmation. I'm sure the club are doing everything as quick as they can. Moaning on here does absolutely nothing. Therefore patients is needed.
