Regardless if we sign a superstar or not the quality of signings this window have been abysmal and don't appear to have strengthened the team in comparison to others around us

To be fair your consistent with your negativity

I'll give you that as its a fair assessment of my posts. But I would be positive if there was something for me to get stuck into, I just don't see it

I can't remember you ever posting anything positive about the club, you only seem to come on here when we lose

I've always seen us needing cover this transfer window, not strengthening.

Last year we scored more goals, had one of the best defences & won the title. My concern was whenever we had key players out the results were poor because we had poor cover.

Some people on this thread are right stroppy little kids!!

Messi and Ronaldo aren't coming get over it and cheer on those who do come!

I hope the likes of Rodwell and Sinclair become great for us but I can guarantee inside their first few games they won't perform and won't be like Messi or De Rossi but I can guarantee these people spitting their dummies out will create countless amount of threads about them having a bad game.

They're young and English and have years ahead of themselves to mould into our squad so stop embarrassing our fan base by crying about not signing a "big name" player, honestly get a grip!!

I think you need to get a grip, no one has thrown their toys out the pram asking for a big name player.

I have seen people question if Sinclair is good enough for us.

Whilst I agree to a point, I don't think we were looking at Hazard or De Rossi for shits and giggles. Mancini see's some clear deficiencies in even our best line ups that he wanted to address to take on Europe, and we simply haven't done it. Our best is no better than last season bar the usual playing together a little longer angle, and if we thought that was good enough I'm sure we wouldn't have earmarked 30m for Hazard. Only question is whether that money was only available for him or could be used on other players, because we've only spent about circa 30m (?) and you'd have a hard time convincing anyone that we only had 30m to spend this window (and were about to spend it all on one attacking player to boot).

Don't recall any vitriol when we signed AJ, yet he was a similar price and less experienced and most seem unhappy that he has gone.

Whether Sinclair was first or last choice, he is about to become a City player, so I hope in ten years time we're looking back and thinking what a great signing at a bargain price. We'll only know how he fits in and what he brings to the team once he's here, so how about giving him some time. I only hope he hasn't looked in here to see what people think.

I think if we had signed a big star, such as De Rossi for example, then everyone would be happy about the signing. However because we have failed to land a super star all other signings are seen as inferior.

I guarantee that if we now buy a big name you will see several of the follow comments "superstar, Nastasic, Rodwell and Sinclair - happy with that"

Regardless if we sign a superstar or not the quality of signings this window have been abysmal and don't appear to have strengthened the team in comparison to others around us
Waaaaaaaaaah

Hazard imo was because we are over reliant on Silva & worked him too hard. Just finding another player who can fit that bill is very very difficult & then actually getting him out of his club & signing him is more difficult still.

How can you question if a player is good enough when he hasn't even kicked a ball yet?

Sinclair has shown his ability many tones for Swansea, you think Mancini would sign him if he thought he was shit? with the players we have around the likes of Sinclair and Rodwell will only improve their game and ability.

Shauny Wright was ace for us went to Chelsea and did wank, Barry was good at Villa came to us and is now one of our most important players despite the fact the majority of football fans think he's dog shit!

How well a player did or didn't do at his previous club is irrelevant, it's about what ability they have shown.

Eh?

I can question if I think a player is good enough by having seen them play, and with Sinclair he has played mediocre in a mediocre team, lets hope he improves.

If we had got Di Rossi to make our midfield world class I don't think anyone would complain when we get further additions like Sinclair. It's just that with a day to go it looks like the likes of Sinclair are our signings of the summer and the weakness in our team whenever Yaya isn't playing is still glaringly there.

The real kids in this thread are the ones throwing their toys out of the pram because not everybody agrees that Scott Sinclair is the answer. They want this place to be full of cheerleaders I think...

Seems the info I said lastnight was bob on. Fair play to the lad that told me, I work with him do will try and ask for info later. His dad is a sports lawyer for Mchale sports so knows a lot about transfers.
