Guest Col city fan Posted 16 June 2011 Posted 16 June 2011 What a ridiculous thread this has turned into. Yes we should be patient, yes we want quality & not a load of dross like Derby have signed. Yes it's going to be difficult to get our 1st choice signing all the time. I'm hoping for a couple of forwards & defenders before pre -season starts, but it wouldn't surprise me if we're active in the final week before transfer deadline day & even hit the loan signing hard again as it will be obvious that some players won't want to sign for a Champs side. I just hope we get Mee again, hopefully permanently, and of course Yakubu, and we at least compete for Naughton's signature although I don't hold out much hope for that. As for Col City Fan's point, yes ManU do only add to their quality squad with 1 or 2 quality signings but that is because they have a quality squad, we don't. We need a GK, a LB (2 if Bruno goes) 2 RB, 2 CB (3 if Hobbs goes) a MF who can win the ball & 2 forwards (3 if Waggy goes) Vassell's goal return was appalling & embarrassing & if we're to be in with a shout of top 2 we'll need to do much better. Adding 1 or 2 quality players ManU-style just isn't possible due to the need to both improve massively & last season's failed loan-signing gamble decimating the squad. Yeah I didn't make this at all clear. Of course we have a small squad at the mo. What I'm hoping is that when Sven finally assembles his squad for the season we then start to build-up a squad of quality over time.. Much like Martin oneill did I guess, adding one or two key players in the areas needed. I'd like to see this type of model/ plan in place rather than seemingly haphazard way things have been done over recent times, Pearson excepted. Sven has such a small squad of quality players to work with that he's starting almost from scratch in this respect.
