Lets keep this arguement for the other threads You're just attracting the trolls!!!

No link with Rhodes, it was just the claim that Rhodes is better than Damiao got people talking about Rhodes!

I like Bournemouth...

And Blackburn buying Rhodes for £12m wasn't retarded?!

Just Wow.

How can you guarantee something which can't be measured? And fwiw I think you're wrong. Damiao is a class above Rhodes.

I expect an improvement on last year. A top half finish would be nice. As would a cup run. As long as we stay up and finish above west ham, I'd be satisfied. Was painful getting spanked by them, and then drawing at home to them and them finishing above us, when all my close mates are Hammers.

I only asked him about Damiao. Would think PO is still an option, especially now Roma signed Gervinho

West Ham. QPR. Chelsea....although quite glad Mourinho is back.

If you're expecting us to finish top 7 then you're in dream world

Annoying thing is, if you put the WUMS on ignore, then you struggle to find a thread worth reading such is their dominance on this forum these days.

005. Awful.

Ah back to the normal Dalek then - take a leaf out of Alpines book - go and watch the team and then cheer up a bit.

There were a lot of poor teams in the division last season. Sunderland needed to spend money and bring in multiple players, as did Norwich - but I believe at the end of the season, that we were a better side than them man for man. The only thing about us is that we don't have an awful lot of depth. We've strengthened in a key area - CB, and the midfield looks stronger too with the addition of Wanyama. That gives us an alternative way to play, which is good. One striker and I think we have a real chance of pushing on into a solid mid table outfit and above. We don't need to add numbers who are just competent players, we needed to bring in quality and just cherry pick in certain areas. We have two promising youth players who look to be involved this year in Isgrove and Chambers, JWP will be another year older and stronger, and the whole team now has a years prem experience under their belt. Don't underestimate the impact of this when we kick off in two weeks. I'm really excited for the new season, and I don't expect us to be in the relegation zone much this year if at all. Onwards and upwards, I will happily take steady improvement over the next few years with a cup run or two. Buying a new team every year has been proved to not work - so lets not bring the arguement that just because a team has brought in loads of new players they're suddenly going to be amazing.

Quality not quantity.

Lukaku will start a lot of games for Chelsea this season. Already better than Ba and arguably more effective than Torres.

More players doesn't mean wiser.

All we need is a striker, and we're clearly looking for one. STOP PANICKING !!!!!!!!!

Ramirez could do a job up there, but we defeinitely do need to sign someone.

Bear, I have noticed a lot of posts on main board recently yo, Is this cos you noticed how many posts Tokyos has ?

Probably not, no. HTH

Not really seen us linked with him since Wanyama went through. And yes they're different players but they still play in the bottom 2 CM positions. Banega isn't a Ramirez type of player.

Get rid as long as we bring in soneone else.

It's the other end we need to change. All good teams are built on solid defences, so get that sorted (which it looks like we're close to doing) then we don't need to score any more than last year.

We signed Wanyama instead.
