Makes zero sense at 12 million, especially as we have been so frugal in our other approaches reportedly. I highly doubt it is 12 and all I can hope is that it's something more realistic like 7. Even then it's a disappointing signing IMO.

Indeed it does and it's entirely of our own making. How disappointing.

Much more like the intelligent signings we have been used to. Young, likely to improve, English, can probably sell for a huge profit in a season or two. Long is an uninspired signing and his value is only going to go one way. It's a waste in comparison to Ings and is a poor signing for 12 million IMO.

It's the worldwide scouting network proving their worth!

If we are prepared to spend 12 million on a striker, you would hope we would go for someone a hell of a lot better. What a waste.

Christ. If that is true then I give up. In many ways that is worse than not spending anything!

How is he being treated horrifically? I'll happily swap jobs with him.

That article is incredible

Quite insulting to the club captain. Please keep your insults to yourself.

Stalking artur doesn't give you more credibility than anyone else.

He would be doing that patronising thing he does like talking down to everyone and saying we are lacking in self control.

Yeovil.

Is a Romanian football blogger so seems fairly credible.

Please don't put his image on here. It makes me feel ill.

How does 50/50 in your mind equate to unlikely? And where did I say I formed that opinion solely based on this one preseason game? Genius.

Indeed they are. I agree with you.

Well for me this season starts when the first game starts but I know it's different for everyone.

It's not just the personnel though. It's the understanding, team morale and everything involved with that.

Not sure how you took that from my post.

Fair enough. I can't say I share your optimism. For me next season is about survival. Hopefully Koeman will still be here next season and we can build from there.

Thanks. Really appreciated.

I still find it amusing when they draw to league two teams.

Happy with that as long as Boruc isn't sold as we will just have the same problem again.

Not without another decent striker and a CB we won't. Just a couple of injuries and we would be in deep trouble.

Yeah this probably. I'm still worried that we could be easily sucked into a relegation battle though.
