So signing an Eng u21 right back, a 21 yr old Uruguayan full international, Polands no1, Japans CB, Norway CB, Zambian striker who scored at the ACON final, a 23 yr old English forward who scored a lot in the NPC last season, and Northern Irelands captain who has played a lot of games in the prem isn't good enough? I'm sure youd' only be happy if we signed such players as Shaun Derry and Glen Whelan. You'd probably moan if we'd signed Messi as he might not perform in december against Stoke....

He's really not average...I think he'd probably be playing for England if he was still at Swansea.

This.

I can't believe you think we should only go for players who are good in relegation battles. There is generally a reason why they've been in relegation battles, and thats because they're not good enough. Without Ramirez, I think we would be worse off this season, and therefore, IMO, it was a good signing.

Ramirez was very good at Norwich which was our last away game.....

What a ridiculous thing to say. You're basically saying that we should have brought in players who are good for a relegation fight, and anyone who is better than that, we shouldn't consider. Our transfer committee has obviously tried to build on the talented players we had last season and stick a few more highly rated players in. Lets be fair, if we'd sorted the keeper situation out at the start of the season, we could easily be looking at a top 10 finish this season.

He hasnt played when he has been injured? But its hardly helped him settle into the side has it? When he has played, more at home than away, he's been pretty good and in some games the soul reason why we've got a result. (Newcastle, Villa, Arsenal at home). Agree he has been anonymous away from home at times, but that will come. He's a good player and probably our most talented player. Give him a chance. He's only young.

Injuries? Personal issues? I think he has done enough, but we need him to push on next season and become more consistent.

You must be the most impatient person to have ever graced the earth. Give them time. Personally, although I think for the money he should have contributed a bit more, all things considered I think Gaston has been a success. I don't think me and you will ever agree though.

Lee was good enough for the push last season, we needed someone better than Barnard and Connolly wasn't going to play every week. Forren...how can you write him off before he's played ? Mayuka has looked half decent when he has played, but agree thats an odd one. Gaston is class. But moaners will moan....

Yes I know, but they do....thats my point...

Scott Sinclair was superb for Swansea last season, and would really add something for us. Surprised people aren't excited by the prospect! He's probably better than all our wide players. One reason why I can't see it though is the fact he's English. I thought that was why Man City signed him and Rodwell, because you need so many 'home grown' players in your squad.

Well can't see him taking a £40k pay cut !

It is strange that an allocation isn't announced. It's not like it matters to the club?

I feel rough anyway this morning but I feel a little bit sick after watching that this morning.

Another player who saw the £££ instead of thinking about his career. He needs to leave there, but not sure we'll stump the money for him tbh.

West Ham for sure, and at the moment QPR. Never had a problem with them before really.

F*cking Vettel..BOOORRRIIINNNNGGGG

I shouldn't worry, it's only Grosjean!

Fair point. Merson is just a pr!ck.

Just my feeling tht he didn't have anything good to say about Adkins when he was given the opportunity to

Embarrassed himself on that tonight

Nope....he's not started because Poche thinks Lallana and JRod are better

No mention of Adkins in manager chat. Get the feeling they didnt get on.
