Sheffield wed sign barca striker

[Jack Daniels]

Very annoying. If Sheffield wed can bring in this sort of potential why can't we?

Do we have our sights and expectations set too high as fans?

Sheffield wed have no more of an attraction than us.

Or are they just gambling spending more £££ than they can afford.

There is obviously the quality out there. This signing leaves me very confused.

We had a former Barcelona youth player on loan from Man City last year and I can't honestly say he would add anything significant to the squad at this point.

7 Goals, 32 Apps, Barcelona B and he is 22. 2 Caps for Spain U21 and it's a season long loan.

He isn't exactly the next Messi so I wouldn't threat.

Oh, I didn't realise you have watched Rodri on many occassions and know of his abilities. Well, please inform us all of just how good he is?

Oh, what's that? You don't know his ability and am just making an assumption based on him coming from Barcelona B?

Sandaza came from Valencia. Robbie Wallwork came from Manchester United as did Luke Chadwick but I'm not gutted we don't have them...

Is he any good then Jack?

Andy Arnott once played for Manchester United.
Alexis Nicolas was bought from Chelsea.
Joe O'Ceaurill was at Arsenal before us.

Signing somebody from Barcelona doesn't mean he's good!

Beat me to it in style.

I don't really understand the logic of this thread, considering we've brought in 4 players all with experience in the top leagues of their divisions, and 3 of them with Champions League experience.

They are just gambling with money, I don't think they really have. And I do think we have our expectations set too high. Three seasons getting to The Championship would have been a dream. Now we have a team capable of staying there, with a good possibility of the play offs. Just my opinion.

But this guy has scored 8 (EIGHT) goals for Barcelona B. Wednesday have clearly pulled out a GEM

Nice work with the stats!

Sorry only meant on the striker front. Not explaining myself properly as usual.

This is more what I was getting at. Lots of people seem paranoid that we will lose Gus if we don't go up. But do we really have that potential?

 

[Napper]

Sheffield wed still more attractive than us . Much bigger club etc etc.

What has that got to do with Sheff Wed signing a youngster that 99% of us know nothing about though?

Really?

Of course, they're a much bigger club than us!

Well said... Not forgetting Arsenal boys Graham Barratt, Gavin Hoyte, Rami Shaaban and some terrible ex-Villa players (Henderson, Williams). Top clubs don't guarantee to calibre!

Do you think it shows a difference in ambition between the clubs?

 

[hans kraay fan club]

That we have signed 3 players with first team Champions League experience, and they've signed a kid who's played one season in the Spanish equivalent of League 1?

Yes, I'd say it does.
