Agustein, Andrews and Lita? Conway is a sucess certainly....but the other 3? I can't say we're were we are because of them. I quite like Andrews but he hasn't really played all that much.

So "Premier League Years 2009-10" for Keith Andrews and Leroy Lita then?

:lolol: That's why I now just CHUCKLE when, for example in the Bridcutt deal, people say "Well Bridcutt may turn Sunderland down. They havent agreed a fee yet etc etc". If you read the Secret Footballer you will know that his agent has already probably agreed the whole basic contract with...

Indeed. I would recommend the Secret Footballer book to anyone. Excellent read and will really make you understand what the hell happens in football transfers a hell of a lot more( here's a clue, its about making money) It puts the Bridcutt transfer request into complete context and explains...

A lot of people seemed upset when I said they wern't his signings. You seem to be making an arguement where, in fact, you completely backup what I said originally.

Indeed. Hence my very first joke post that, clearly, Oscar hasn't been targetting Mason for years. Thank you for agreeing.

Indeed. Thank GOD someone actually understands. How can you HONESTLY believe these are his signings. That these were people HE targetted. Of course they wern't. But again, if they do a job then I don't care. David Burke could be a genius at recruitment.

I don't know. I haven't seen one yet.

He may have heard of him but you can't honestly tell me he had the name "andrews" on his list of players when asked who interests him. People seem very defensive of something thats not even a criticism. Burke admitted himself that they target the players. Especially in a summer where OG came...

But Leroy Lita? Please. He's been off the radar for about 3 years. Him barely touching the ball would suggest he was never OG's first choice. Again, I'm not criticising him as he came into a ridiculous situation and had to go with what Burke presented but there is a difference between...

That's completely fair and nice to hear. But I just can't bring myself to believe he walked through the door and said "What we REALLY need is that Keith Andrews and Leroy Lita"...

Gus is head coach at Sunderland. Sunderland are after Bridcutt. So you're saying, Sunderland went for Bridcutt and it wasn't influence by Gus...seeing as he's ONLY the Head COACH? Or is that different....

You do realise I'm not criticising him, right? I'm just laughing at how NON oscar this deals currently are. If they work then I couldn't care less.

You think Oscar Garcia, whilst managing MACCABI, knew of the talents of Leroy Lita Craig Conway Keith Andrews Joe Mason :lolol:

I know how it works. The bloke who is brought in for his football knowledge gets given a list of players chosen by someone else.

I imagine Oscar has been a fan of Joe Mason since his Plymouth days....
