Negredo allegedly signed

Re: Negredo just signed

Yet you can complain about a player that scored more than any other player in La Liga bar the three that would cost more than £50m? This includes more goals than Soldado, Higuain, Benzema and Villa.

Goals are not everything that makes a player. The reason I think that this is a bad buy are the reports that are coming out about this guy are mixed to say the least, if you read the scouting report posted earlier that pretty much epitomises what we are getting. He is a very erratic player world beater one week a donkey the next. He very much like Dzeko too much in some ways only Dzeko is 3 years younger.

We are paying a lot of money for someone who has never really set the world alight or ever likely to? If I am being honest I hope he fails this medical today.

Maicon passed his so I cant see Negredo failing his medical

Re: Negredo just signed

Some right spoilt people on here. Negredo is a good striker and as soon as he starts bagging a few goals all the spoilt brats will be up his arsehole. The majority of people slagging him off probably have no idea what he is about and just cause he isn't mentioned when people discuss the best strikers around at the minute, he isn't deemed acceptable. Negredo scored more than any of our strikers last year, and I think would have finished joint top goal scorer in our league with Van Persie. He knows where the net is and that is good enough for me, and with the chances we can create, he has the potential to out do his scoring from last season.

Re: Negredo just signed

Posters on here declaring that this is a "disappointing " signing because we had been "linked" to Cavani, Bale , Ronaldo etc etc .
Well , who made those links? The club? -no , the players themselves?- no , agents ? no - it was our old friends , the pissed old hacks in the tabloid press, so obviously we should take what they say as the truth , or maybe we should just dismiss it as space filling , made up bollox.
Linked with marquee signings - end up with disappointing squad player types - some of you out there seem determined to do the work of the gutter press for them.
Pellegrini made a statement along the lines of the pointlesness of having the best 12 guitarists in the world , when what you really need is a piano player , and some of you would do well to get off the computer games and get into the real world.
The manager of our great club has more knowledge and experience of how to build and progress and motivate a squad of footballers than any of us and if he signs player A instead of player B , then I will give him every support , until , or ,if he turns out to be wrong.

Re: Negredo just signed

As far as I'm concerned, even if he doesn't score 25 goals a season, but is making a valuable contribution in the build up play and helping someone score, then it's a win win for everyone. It's a team game after all.

Welcome Big Al.

Re: Negredo just signed

The delight for me is a reported wage of £75K. We seem to have stopped paying silly wages as we make the transition from a club that players come to because we are going places and the money's damned good to one where the team is one that players come to because we are going places and the rest of the squad are damned fine (and the money's not bad). I don't mind paying extra on a by-results basis but the days of the £200K/week to lure contented players from somewhere they are happy seem to be coming to an end for us thnkfully.

I like the fact that all our signings seem to have a great work rate and are team players, no more prima donnas we are now building a cohesive unit

Well said. Are those posters true City supporters though? I mean, they aren't really supporting City with their comments; quite the opposite actually. I rarely visit the Transfer forum and those muppets are the reason why. I trust Pellegrini and the management, not gossip, rumour and the delusions of spoilt brats.

Welcome Big Man!

Re: Negredo just signed

I'll be honest not really seen him play before but if he puts in more of a shift than Dzeko he's alright by me.
