Why do the SMB over rate mag players so much?

This forum is full of f***ing fannies.

Most of the people haven't even watched the players play before they join.

Just pull up a best of YouTube and then go off hearsay to support their opinions.

Mind I had expected Rivière to be better than he is. Seen Monaco a few times in Ligue 2 and he was decent.

Because they were good until they joined Newcastle.

Wigan were close to signing Riviere in the championship clearly a good player

Coyle admitted that he had lodged a bid for the Frenchman but was knocked back by the league leaders.

"We did make offers for strikers, because I do think we're short in that area, but it didn't happen," Coyle toldWigantoday.net. "There was one in particular, Emmanuel Riviere, who we bid £5m for a couple of weeks ago. But it's sod's law that he started the season with five goals in three games which put paid to that
 
Must admit that I thought that Cabella would be a good signing for them but he's yet another Mag signing who has shown that there's a huge gulf in class between Ligue 1 and the Premier League.

Seriously, who? Are these 2 of the stars of the world cup? Well known champions league big hitters?

Nope, they can't get a game for France who aren't the greatest.

They've also signed colback and a player who couldn't get in the Dutch squad ahead of Leroy Fer who was relegated with Norwich.

I'm not impressed with our business but the mags haven't signed anyone to worry anyone IMO.

You're trying to prove a point? I stand by my opinion that France have a very good National team, much better than England's. They play good football, they have very good players and they were sent home with 1-0 only by the future world champions, Germany. Those two players being shite for Newcastle doesn't prove France are a poor National side, especially since those two can't get in that squad, as you said.
