BottledDog Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Does anyone think the "Wow" signing has since gone arse over tit? I'm surprised the number of people who believed that rumour in the first place. it's hardly a rumour when your owner comes out and says it Will this 'not a rumour' be coming with a side serving of quotes?

bodson Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Hmm, it all feels too familiar. Waiting with the transfers until deadline day. We will probably end up with Sibierski again.. And how about this "wow-signing", isnt it similar to when Sir Bobby dissed Jaap Stam with the words - "I have someone better in mind" . We ended up with Titus!!

Guest elbee909 Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 arshavin out of the question imo, we seem to have lowered our expectations for some reason. gone are the days when the toon punches above their weight, jonas is good and colo is an established international but where are all the big names, when we sighed guthrie i expected him to be on the fringe, challenging current players for places yet we seem content with him in the starting 11. spurs are no better than us yet they aren't afraid to go for players it seems are out of our reach (namely bentley, arshavin who i would gladly take and would do great job for the toon) It's as if you've been in a coma while Souness, Roeder and Allardyce were here, or something. Lucky you. were we owned by a billionaire in those days? and what about souness bringing in owen, pretty big name in my opinion So you want to be the new Chelsea, rather than a self-sustaining entity? And what about Owen? A big name that's hardly been about to play. We could do with fewer purchases like that and more Colos, more Jonases. Spurs are in Europe. Newcastle are not even in Europe right now, let alone the Champions League. There's no big mystery as to why we're not going for the 'big' names here. We've declined and it's harder to get them in.

Fair? Yeah, less of this impatience. I want more relatively unknown signings I can claim are a success after 1 game. Owen was signed when we finished 14th and were not in Europe btw.

Got our money's worth there, haven't we? Paid shitloads in wages to a big-name in Michael Owen and if that doesn't show a big name guarantees little then what else does? Keep signing more unknown internationals, that'd do me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Icke - Son of God Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 He's a good signing on loan for them. No risk. I don't expect him to do much at all mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainhaircut Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 I think we're going to sign Micah Richards. That would be a 'wow' signing. They've bought Kompany to replace him and we've let Faye go to free up space in the squad. It all makes perfect sense! Or we could just be buying Nedum Onouha.
