Wouldn't be surprised if the rumours are just a ruse to drive up his price before he inevitably goes elsewhere.
-
Roll the dice.

Enrique's injuries would make me reluctant to sign him. He was my favourite player so that's difficult to say. They will really have impacted on his acceleration and speed which was a key to his strength as a fullback (that and his strength/balance).
-
Barely anyone gave Enrique trouble back in the premier league also, but that's besides the point. Defenders can be protected and therefore made to look better by being in dominant teams that boss possession.
-
If not I'm selling mine, lightly used.
-
Don't forget that we were the dominant team in the division, much less defending to do.

Don't think we've seen enough of him to write him off, and there has been some glimpses of ability from what we have seen. If he doesn't get a proper run this season he'll never amount to anything here, if he does thinking with extreme optimism he could be our next Cabaye
-
His name's easier to spell for a start...
-
I've run your maths through the machine that scientist guy used in the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory movie and it holds up.
-
That's some strike for their second.
-
How difficult can it be? What exactly do they need to check?

There hasn't yet been a situation where I haven't looked forward to a season. It's how long that enthusiasm lasts that's in question. I'm particularly looking forward to see how Motrovic does, he's shaping to be one that could swing wildly in either direction, and I like that volatility. I'm hoping he adds some character to the team, it's something we've lacked since Nolan was sold and Barton was moved on.
-
Aye, not like its his fault he keeps getting selected.
-
Exactly right, also the amount we've spent with these recent transfers seems higher than it is because of the increase in TV money. Four of five years ago these were reasonable fees, these days they're nothing out of the ordinary. We still need several more players, though I think with these three in I can see it becoming a case of sell to buy. Looking at the menu from last season there's not much we could serve up that would be appetising to other teams. As always hoping to be proved wrong.

Appears to be easily led by a money hungry agent.

That's a horrid back four.
-
Excited to see this guy.
-
I'd worry a little how he will cope with the larger more physical players in the premier league. Who he gets partnered with is critical, with Colo I could see us really struggle with set pieces.
-
I wouldn't mind giving Haidara a consistent run at left back (with Dummet to deputise once fit) as long as our gaping holes are sorted.
-
Now is happening. Lower wages are the reason why we're going for this guy rather than Austin. Don't ever dare dream that we'd be in for both.
-
Interesting goal celebration.
-
We don't need a replacement you stupid Ashley conditioned confirmists, we need strikers in addition to him. When you have no depth you not only are at high risk in relation to injuries but you also have no competition for spots which results in poorly performing players maintaining their position with no effort and/or contribution (Gouffran). Given how poor the current board appears to be at signing players it would be foolish to endorse the selling of a player who clearly knows where the back of the net is, even if he's getting on and has had a bad run of injuries.
-
Give yourself some credit. It's not that you could have done nothing, you did do nothing. Even better you then proceeded to tell everyone about the great many ways in which you did nothing and achieved nothing. Well played.
