I think the general consensus here is that by some small miracle we actually do have a solid nucleus. Where the difference of opinion is is whether the foundation will be built upon, or whether the key structural components will be gutted and sold to be replaced with inferior versions.

 

If only we could fast forward in time to the end of August there should be a general consensus. Of course this will never happen because both sides of the camp will likely find something to cling to regardless of the outcomes.

 

Why would the negative side cling to their negativity if we bring in 3 0r 4 first team decent additions. Thats just silly. I would hope your side would be big enough to say no more maoning, we're looking good. :lol:

 

Define 3 or 4 decent first team additions.

 

If we bring in 3 or 4 proven Premiership quality players and dont lose the likes of Enrique, Tiote, Barton, Colo then yes I'll be saying that we're looking better.

 

We all (except you and TN) know that in reality we're more likely to bring in 3 unproven players from the Championship or below/ small scale Europeans and lose any 2 from the above list.

 

That wont be progress however you see Enrique as on the "wain" and N'Zog as being an excellent replacement at LB so its more than likely you'll find some reason to celebrate that scenario.

Tiote or Bern Arfa were not proven prem players..

 

By 3 or 4 first team additions Im talking about players with a decent track record who will start the first game of the season. Not has beens.

 

For clarity, Carton Cole wouldnt be classed as a good addition.

Not sure how you lot can even converse with CT about football. My son talks more sense about the subject, and NUFC and he's 5 in July.

I reckon his son probably does too.

:D @ N'Zogbia at left back.

 

He was a rubbish left back, always out of position, couldn't tackle and repeatedly failed to clear the ball. All stands to reason because you can't just decide someone is a left back because they're left footed. Has never had an ounce of defending in him and never will.

 

And most importantly...wait for it...he wanted to leave us because we were always playing him at LB! Why would he ever come back here to play LB for us again? It boggles the mind what these morons will come up with.

 

It's fair enough wanting to be optimistic about our club, God knows we could use some optimism (you know, like the optimistic feeling most of us on here had around November before we sacked our best manager in 6-7 years and sold our best striker without replacing him) but fuck me, you've got to have absolutely no sense of pattern recognition not to see what's going on here.

 

See you on September 2nd.

 

Watch your mouth you little bitch. :lol:

 

You're a moron who thinks FM is reality, your posts are cringeworthy, and you're an embarrassment.

 

Up to this point, I've not joined in with the group of people who always have a go at you for your idiotic predictions and constant berating of people who are 'overly pessimistic' (i.e. they live in the real world whereas you live in cloud cuckoo land) because I felt sorry for you, but your increasing arrogance (as though there's anything to be arrogant about when you're predicting we'll sign or even go after Huntelaar, Derdiyok and van der Wiel) is really not attractive or endearing.

Lets face it chaps, and I know the pessimists dont want to hear this, but this transfer window is gearing up to be one of the most anticipated and exciting for a lot of years.

 

We do have a solid foundation

We do have a great squad spirit

We are about to break even by all accounts

We have a proper transfer kitty to play with

We have Graham Carr

And we have been told we have had lots of people out scouting for several months now.

 

Its going to be awesome.
