JayNCFC 14 Posted July 8, 2013 Couldn''t agree more, seems to just hold off other players and then power through them... the only thing is we don''t know how strong these other players are... or how fast they are.This would obviously be seen as a step up from Tettey... Would we need him then? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PurpleCanary 5,557 Posted July 8, 2013 [quote user="Ches right hand man "]I think we are close to signing a few players no point going to Austria with half a squad same goes for the American tour. [/quote] Possibly, but it would be a surprise if everyone was in place that soon. The season before last Ayala wasn''t signed until the league season was starting, and last season Bunn, Tettey, Garrido and Bassong all arrived in August.

Tetteys Jig 830 Posted July 8, 2013 He looks the complete player, still a bit to work on decision making as he was trying to do it all himself, but that''s sometimes quite good to see in a young player, it did Ronaldo no harm! Definate shades of Vieira there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CDMullins 436 Posted July 8, 2013 I must confess I didnt know much about him until the link with NCFC.But he looks very Yaya like, positive,explosive, powerful and a pacy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tetteys Jig 830 Posted July 8, 2013 Ruddy, Bassong, Fer, RVW would be the best spine outside the top six in my book.Up the other way, Alderwiereld, Howson, Toivonen isn''t bad either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rolf Harris 31 Posted July 8, 2013 I think Hughton getting a squad which can guide us safely to a mid table finish while also competing in the cups as I think he sees the only way really to progress is to get into a final so we can get a European space for the increased money and reputation. As I personally think the top 8 will be hard to break up for the foreseeable future. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Still eight weeks of the transfer window to go, of course. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tetteys Jig 830 Posted July 8, 2013 Williams may yet end up at Arsenal, Britton is a decent option, but not great. The rest i agree look very good.Ruddy=VormWilliams>TurnerBassong>Mr. NobodyDeGuzman=FerHowson=BrittonMichu>ToivonenRVW=BonySuggests Swansea just about shade that one. Should Williams go, it leaves a massive gap to fill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim Smith 2,317 Posted July 8, 2013 I have to say from those videos I really like the way he drives forward. the only central midfielder we currently have who can do that is Howson (as we saw at the end of the season) but he doesn''t do it often enough. To have 2 genuine box to box central midfielders would be very nice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ReadingCanary 0 Posted July 8, 2013 I''ve said it a million times.Swansea and Norwich deserve to be where we are.We both have superb support, great players and our games are always full of goals, drama and action.Yes Swansea get talked about more than us but do I care? Not really.I think Swansea and Norwich will be in the league for years and we both deserve it too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tetteys Jig 830 Posted July 8, 2013 Swansea seem to have sorted all their summer dealings out. Decent buys in there too. We now need to eclipse them. Fer tomorrow would be a hell of a start too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
