Really pleased with this signing. Welcome Jamie.
We needed at least one more winger who will challenge for a first team place. We now have this player. If we are going to continue to play 4-4-2 (here's hoping), then another winger of equal quality would be a good acquisition.
If we have agreed a fee with Sheff U, I think we should set a deadline for this guy, just like he did for Iranian Ali... move on if the deadline not met...
Totally disagree. At least we were organised under Hughton, who did what he had to do to keep us up. Sami was clueless and he had no idea how to setup a team; we were a complete ****ing shambles under the Clueless One.
CJ backs-up Chairman shocker - hold the front page! ;-)
Seriously, the purse strings were a little too tight for my liking last season... about £15M in player sales received, about 1 fifth of that spent on poor quality acquisitions.
I see him as the only player we have left who can excite by terrorising defenders. Maybe not as a starter, but definitely as an impact sub. Personally, I see 4 wingers as essential if we are (for some unknown reason) going to stick with 4-3-3, so:
Kaz, Solly plus Ali and Murphy? 2 for each...
