TRon Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Still cautious, athough I think we'll do ok. If the next couple of signings address the weak areas in the squad I'll be more than happy. At the moment top 10, with the right additions it could be top 6. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toptoon Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Well KK is biging up Smith and Cacapa which leads me to think he may start them plus Butt v man u in which case i may cry. Also faye who was one of our best players, an absolute rock is being sold for a poxy £2m to stoke. We need to replace him, or the likes of Carew etc will score another Hat trick against us this season. We need to buy another big commanding CB like Faye, Tiago would be superb too! and keep smith, Cacapa and Butt away from the team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elliottman Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Faye was not an absolute rock yes he was, in the context of our central defence i wouldnt go as far to say an absolute rock. He was our best centre half, but not a rock. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except edging towards content. same, it'll take a new ST & CM to make me content for this window, generally though i'm pretty optimistic as the academy scouting seems to be continuing apace....get said players in, have a good season then perform the same level/quality of transfers in/out next season and we'll be set Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
juniatmoko Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Concerned.. where the fucking creative midfield?... turan will be cracking signing if it true.... don't like the idea keegan keeping smith... it mean keegan will playing him week in and out which is irritating Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicago_shearer Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Concerned, but edging very close to cautiously optimistic if we get those 2 other players in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElDiablo Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 We're currently stronger by a fair way now than we were at the end of the season so I don't see any reason to be concerned, if you think about it rationally we improved 100% towards the end of last season, started to play football and looked like a decent side within a few months of KK taking over. He's now added a few of his 'own' players and has had a few months to get back to grips with the club and management, it's easy to get caught up in this "Oh fuck we need lyk 9 new players or were gonna be shit still" but if you take a step back and think about it we've addressed the midfield area and bought two new players who have looked good so far and now have Coloccini. Yes it looks like Faye is going but we've proved we can STILL attract players of Colo's quality so there's no reason why he can't be replaced, maybe not now but in January or next summer, until then we have Cacapa and Taylor who I don't rate but it's not like it's a desperate situation like the midfield was last season when we had literally fuck all, they can still do a job. We're much better now than we were at the start of the transfer window and maybe be even better if we get one or two more faces in. No reason to be concerned at all imo. It's a gradual thing we're trying to do it's not going to happen over one summer ffs. Concerned...what about? We've improved the squad quite a bit imo, no need to be. Roll on sunday.

Elliottman Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 optimistic to be honest. rid of lots of dead wood. Brought a few in, more to come. Played some good football at the end of last season which some people seem to have forgotton about. I think we'll be pretty strong at home this year too.Top 8 would be a cracking achievement.
