at having potential.

Love it how some people actually think thats the only reason he is going. Same all this clearly loves the place stuff, he is a footballer he is entitled to do what he wants and imo(and no doubt his) he had no chance of making the Spain squad while here much like when Robert got ignored a lot here. ... yeah I went on to say he wants to play at a higher level which he isn't going to get here.

I bare absolutely no ill feeling towards Enrique at all. He just got tired of waiting for Ashley to invest properly in the squad, like we all have. He's approaching the prime of his career and he needed assurance that he would be playing at a high level, which he couldn't get here. Best of luck, Jose. Thanks for everything. http://www.kickette.com/files/2010/04/Jose-Enrique-Toso.jpg

no.

This. Let my new man crush begin.

some Italian guy.

for Jose:

Carroll replacement. Not as tall but a proper, all round centre forward. Decent across the board; heading, skills, turn of speed and finishing. same height, according to wiki. Derdiyok's scoring record's not fab but I suppose he's still young.

never seen Derdiyok play but he has a cool name.

Huntington looked very promising at one point. Ended up at Yeovil.

If the price is right I think we should go for Keirrison. He's obviously got potential and is still young. Also: good enough reason to sign him imo.

And the pace with technique guys too, not the headless chicken types who have no timing or anticipation. http://static.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Football/Pix/pictures/2009/5/21/1242905926500/Obafemi-Martins-001.jpg

after years of not having lots of pace in our team we now have lots of pace in our team.

Doesn't matter does it? He's here, that's the main thing. I think its a plus that he was not just a pick out of thin air due to us running out of options but a true target we really wanted.

Benayoun would be a good addition, one of my fav players. Signing a striker and LB is more important at the moment though.

Alan Pardew looks so handsome there.

certainly would suit Tony Pulis and his fetish for tall men.

How dare he be tall, who the hell does he think he is?

Worst. Pre-season. Ever.

I sensed a goal, looked in this thread and saw there was no goal. It must have been scored elsewhere.

When? not in training but played together on PES online.

sounds like Krul's having a great game.

did Best miss a 1-on-1 or something?

yep has to be Krul, although I voted for Forster ages ago when this poll started. Forster would benefit from another loan.
