Re: Negredo just signed

My god guys clicked into this thread expecting a lot more positively than this! We are signing a striker who scored 31 goals in 42 goals for under 20m quid. He has played under Pellegrini before and arrives with a chip in his shoulder to get into the Spanish national team.

Seems like a good deal to me but you can't please some people.
 
Re: Negredo just signed

Yes you can, you would please everyone if they went out and actually improved our first team by buying Bale or Ibrahimovic. Instead we buy squad player who will become our 3rd best striker for 30 million euros. Could and should have gotten Villa for next to nothing if we wanted a squad player. Last season Sevilla scored 58 goals in 38 matches and finished 9th in la liga, and we just bought their forward line
 
Re: Negredo just signed

I trust Pellegrini and his judgement about this Sevilla pair - I presume they know each other's game thoroughly. Who says Navas will be a starter in every game? This pair would be a fantastic late double substitution against tiring opponents. Good to see that Pellegrini is upping the squad's fitness level; successful teams score lots of late goals because they are fitter than their opponents.

It's all good. The upcoming season is going to be fascinating.

No, that would not please me. We could buy three decent players for the price of Bale and this is exactly what we have done. To only go for proven, big name players is very much the Mancini approach. Pellegrini's is different and he has had success at Villareal and Malaga by improving and getting the best from this squad of players. So those who condemn Dzeko, Kolarov, Garcia and the English lads should wait and see whether Pellegrini can do what Mancini was unable to do - or rather, whether he can undo Mancini's degrading of the squad's talents (I assume these players were worth the high prices we paid at the time for them).
 
Re: Negredo just signed

So we dont need Bale because Pellegrini is going to turn Kolarov into a better player? what are you even talking about, if pellegrini can improve players then why not buy and improve bale. useless argument

£££ £££

Edit: Sorry, your point needs a decent response. I said "wait and see whether he can", you said "he will". Not the same.
 
Re: Negredo just signed

But Bale is not for sale so why are people even considering him on here? Spurs say not even for £75M. Personally I don't think that ANY player is worth that amount and I think our board is playing their cards well and close to their chest.

IF we have definitely signed Negredo then give the guy a chance, he seems to have a good reputation.
