No but if he turns into Kev and we had passed on him I'll eat my hat.Was Kev when we signed him?

Sounds like a chancer to me. I can’t see us trying to sign Baleba. He’s not that good but Brighton would want £100M+. I doubt we would go anywhere near at that price.His girlfriend is lucky and very happy
Think getting anyone as good as who Kev became is pretty impossible budNo but if he turns into Kev and we had passed on him I'll eat my hat.
Yep, and throw in Maramoosh, Foaden, Bob, Macatea, we should be fine.I'm not sure, I'd be willing to give a Simmonds/Haarland partnership a chance.
Silvinho/Doko either side and I think we're set for years.
As is musing "why not take a punt on them they look average now but at one point Kev looked average."Think getting anyone as good as who Kev became is pretty impossible bud
I would never say Kev ever looked average taAs is musing "why not take a punt on them they look average now but at one point Kev looked average."
Simons is not bang average at allGibbs white and Xavi Simmonds feel like Phillips and Nunes type signing to me - bang average players or with one of them (Simmonds) someone who aint going to ever apply himself at the level needed
He is flakey and hit and miss - nothing he has done so far is saying he can step up and be a serious footballer instead of some overhyped up kid that has great skill but may not have the application..Simons is not bang average at all
He is a good player, but we need players that can come in and deliver goals and assists worthy of a team aiming to win PL from day one. I'm not so certain he is at that level, yet. Could very well just be another Doku/Savinho, with other words a guy that looks exiting but in the end there is not enough attacking returns to show for it.Simons is not bang average at all

It has happened to many clubs over the years. Every club can have a bad season, but if you dont bounce back the next one its only going to get harder after that. We have a very important summer ahead of us, and need to sign top players that will deliver from day one. Not exiting young talents that may or may not become great ones. Not good but not great players that are passengers rather than difference makers. The last two windows we have let several elite serial winners go and we have replaced them with players far beyond their level. In the summer we will probably see several more leave that have been top players here for years. This time we must replace them with elite players ready do deliver from day on in a team aiming to be the best in the world.If we are not careful, we will do a rag/ chelski, if the good players aren't available yet yes, we have a good budget but so did they
Exactly, agree, what worries me is the likes of Wirtz isn't available to us, and get Morgan Gibbs White and so onIt has happened to many clubs over the years.

Hopefully the club have learned their lesson by now that signing mediocre players leads to having a team not good enough. We have been the top dogs in the most attractive league in the world for a decade now, we can attract top players.Exactly, agree, what worries me is the likes of Wirtz isn't available to us, and get Morgan Gibbs White and so on
Spot on.. And if he doesn’t want to come, then move on quickly.. Find the next David Silva and KDBHopefully the club have learned their lesson by now that signing mediocre players leads to having a team not good enough.

If a player like Wirtz is uncertain its up to Viana to convince him. Thats his job.
Viana talent ID so far has been spot on Khusanov looks a very good player , Reis in his one cameo appearance looks solid and assured. I trust Viana will find some very good gems in the summer.
