The club cannot win though can they with some of our fans, we have went down the route of spunking money on supposed proven English players, has not really worked has it, when the Mags did what we are now doing most of our fans were saying this is the route we should take, we do it and people still complain :lol:

I am certain that people just want to sign people they've heard of for big money just so they can say to their mag mates "look who we've signed". Honestly man, look at how much money we've wasted signing players from the Premier League and Championship.

At the minute, and its very early days, there is little comparison other than that we are going foreign.

If you look at the players the mags scouted, in the main, they were sought after players who had success in the French or German leagues and they got them on the cheap.

We are picking out freebies and never beens. Sure, Di Fanti may be a genius and I hope he is but with bottom of the barrel foreigners, it looks like we've gone from Bruce's Harrods to Di Canios Lidl.

:lol::lol: You cannot make it up man, look at the cash we have spunked on Johnson, Wickham and Graham, it does not bare thinking about what quality we could of got if we had spent that money in Europe. I am all for this new approach, sick of paying top dollar for average players in this country

Orban's agent: I hope that at that point Lucas will be ready to reciprocate the attention received so far from so-called "Black Cats".

Orban's agent: He is first choice, but they turn the names of possible alternatives and, asap, the English club will rightly make a choice.

Class that, all hail President Di Canio

and every season the fans want rid of half the team...I keep posting the same thing how have we bought 60 players since Drumaville signed up and still not built an average squad..

I will listen to this argument at the end of the season IF they have failed, at the minute its the usual SMB tosh of writing off players before they have even pulled the shirt on

I'd agree with a lot of that but you can't entirely blame people for worrying a bit about how unproven these players are. Personally I'm with you, I think there's much better value to be had with the direction we're going in this summer, let's hope we find it.

Unproven against what though? Roberge and Diakite are replacing Bramble and Kilgallon, they aren't going to be worse options than those two.

Plus, not everyone we sign can be for millions.
 
if he can come in and settle as quickly as Julio Arca did, could be a very good signing.

We're looking to buy a pretty much new team, 12 according to Di Canio not everyone of them can be expensive and i'm pretty sure we'll not have a team of freebies.

I thought we were getting there at one point. It was during Bruce's reign, and we were attracting some pretty good players, or at least big names. The likes of Gyan, Welbeck, Muntari, Mensah, Bent, Cana, Sessegnon.

Yet somehow, and for whatever reason, we regressed to our current situation. Let's hope this fresh approach proves fruitful.

wasn't that due to trying to cut down the wage bill, Mack ?
