Nobody Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Anderson hasn't done much this season, has he? He is for the future, obviously, but surely Tevez would be a better transfer? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Momomomo Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Actually the Torres transfer fee was about £20 million. The "reported" £26.5 million fee is just a figure the media made up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mowen Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 And wasn't it £20m + Luis Garcia anyway? Making the true value about £26.5m? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

colinmk Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Some of the transfers here give me a lot of hope for next season. If we can identify similar players to the likes of Muntari at similar prices then we could be able to assemble a very good squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Spectrum Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Its all swings and roundabouts. I remember posting a list of players I thought were the worst of the season stupidly early - Anderson was on it cos he'd done absolutely fuck all, barely had a kick, but about a week later he started playing and he looks tremendous. I think I might have even put Yakubu on it . And Nani, who I think had looked shite, might have been on it if I had posted it the day before the Arsenal game. Conversely Elano would have been the #1 by a mile in October, now he doesnt get a mention. Lesson learnt? Wait until the end. Jonathan Woodgate wont be one of the signings of the season if he ruptures his thigh tomorrow. Will McFadden be one of the signings of the season if he doesnt get another goal? He's very ordinary and that point his goals on saturday will be fuck all if they go down (No wins in 12 or something is it?). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Even allowing for the money that he cost, Torres has been outstanding. He makes the most out of what are often quite difficult opportunities. I don't know what Muamba is doing on that list. He's looked very ordinary to me.

brummie Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 I don't know what Muamba is doing on that list. He's looked very ordinary to me. All the knuckledraggers I know say he's shit and lazy. Although in his defence, they are knuckledraggers, so not blessed with the best of critical faculties. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colocho Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 I'm not going to include January signings but from the summer I'd go for: Santa Cruz Torres Petrov Elano Tevez Anderson Sagna Reo-Coker Babel Muntari Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 My own top 10? Hmmmm. Tevez Torres Santa Cruz Kenwyne Jones Corluka Elano Distin Muntari A. Valencia Habib Beye Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheshire Mag Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 My own top 10? Hmmmm. Tevez Torres Santa Cruz Kenwyne Jones Corluka Elano Distin Muntari A. Valencia Habib Beye Valencia and Beye? Strange choices. IMO, Muntari is getting good press at the moment because he is playing for one of the media's favorite teams at the moment and hasnt really impressed me at Pompey, bar the 2 goals at Villa Park.

1878 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 No Elano Rightly so. He had about 10 good games and has been shit/disinterested ever since. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colocho Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Anderson hasn't done much this season, has he? He is for the future, obviously, but surely Tevez would be a better transfer? He hasn't scored many goals, but he his passing ability and sight for a run are very impressive. I think he'll get even better by the end of the season, and a goal could take him to another level.

The College Dropout Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Muntari looks class from when I've seen him. I've said this before but he's everything Nicky Butt sometimes tries to be. He's a very good tackler and gets into good defensive positions. His long range passes actually meet someone in his team and his long-shots find the target much more frequently. He's a player we should've signed. A good motor and he's tough... no question whether he could adapt to the physical side of the Premiership. We shouldn't have fucked about with Geremi and Smith and we should have signed Muntari instead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnypd Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Muntari is not a defensive midfielder tho, if anything he is more attacking, but doesn't really have the guile to be a top drawer player in that position. Would like him here for his power but we'd need a seriously skilful number 10 to drop deep and link with him, as he's not the sort to go about creating chance after chance.
