ned was rumoured to be leaving. this ends the speculation. ergo, it is a vital development in a story regarding a (potential) transfer. about as valid a thread as you will get in this forum.

is this the kind of new fan we are attracting? god help us
Not at all, ive been a fan all me life. The COMS Open Day - I was there. First game vs Barcelona - I was there. Season ticket holder when Nedum was coming through, I saw he was poor at Right back, Yes, he's played well in the last few months but whats with all the excitement, he could come back next month and be shit again. So I'd take it back about being a new fan, twat
Good points well made, agree 100% Cambridgeblue.Cambridgeblue said:S.E.H said:Dont chat shit, he'll be back up at best, a few good months in upto now a shit career and all of a sudden he's one of our superstars, wtf.
Since you clearly know nothing about football allow me to tell you exactly why this is such a good signing.
1) Nedum is one of the best defenders in his age bracket in the country which is why he played such a big part in the under 21 squad which has reached both a semi and a final in recent years, making him not just one of the best in the country but one of the best in europe too.
2) He was excellent for us last season when the rest of the defence looked decidedly wonky, which made his own performances all the more impressive.
3) He has a fantastic work ethic and is a terrific athlete... as his comments in the article shows he is aware he will have to fight for the shirt and he hasn't backed out of the challenge like Sturridge did.
4) He is an academy player and has the club in his heart... retaining players like him, micah and Ireland is absolutely crucial if we are to retain any sense of identity.
5) We are probably about to pay £20m for lescott who is 4 years older than Nedum, Nedum is in my opinion a far more experienced and superior player than lescott was at his age so we have got ourselves a bargain.
6) He's English and so if the nationality rule change does come in then it saves us paying silly money for another top english player.
