  • Derek @ 83, it\'s good to read an optimistic post instead of \'we are doomed\' usual stuff most days.rnWe will sign another couple of players I feel, how good they will be is anyone\'s guess, but I think we have the makings of a 8th to 12th level side if we don\'t get plagued with injuries once again.rnIt\'s easy to say we should have bought him or him but we can\'t force them to sign for us if they fancy somewhere else....

  • @81 DarylrnrnI couldn’t agree with you more. The club needs to take some risks if it is to attempt to progress. rnrnNow is the perfect time. I think the days of being a Sheffield Wednesday or a Leeds are gone for the time being. rnrnSure Leicester have dropped - but they’ll be back in the premier league in 3 years and I would say they’ll win some silverware before we will. rnrnLook at them. We are terrified of relegation. But why - it will never kill us. We are too big of a club for that. And we’d come again. rnrnWe last won a trophy in 1995, a year they were relegated from the top flight. Since then they’ve won 2 League Cups, The Premier League, the FA Cup and reached a Champions League quarter final. rnrnI would swap out last 30 years for theirs, in an instant. ...

The reality is the pair, Coleman in particular, were of such importance that their influence cannot be completely replaced -- not immediately, anyway.rnrnOooo that sounds like a juicy one. rnrnI would post the rest of it but it\'s one of those really annoying \'Premium\' articles the Echo wants you to dig deep and fork out on.

  • 88 - Joe, Spence has 1 goal and 2 assists in his Premier league career and is 26. Last season he didnt register a goal or an assist for spurs, and he played the equivalent of 33 full games. That is Mykolenko level.. He is quick, but his final ball is poor. Inter are buying an athlete more than a highly technical right back. Similar on Wan Bissaka. He is a very good defensive right back, going forward not so hot. It is why United sold him for buttons. Signed for £45-50m, they sold him for £15m. 29 in November. I like both, but neither is what we really need when Mykolenko adds nothing going forward on the other side. We have to get a player that will score and create 10 odd goals a season to take the team forward. We say there isn't enough creativity. Well we need to sign players in those positions, where they will offer it. Munoz apparently waving good bye yesterday. Perhaps it is him....
