Utter bollocks. Just because some posters aren't impressed with this signing doesn't mean we won't give him a fair chance and hope he does very well for us.
This is a forum where people are allowed to give their own opinions on players - positive or negative. Stop frothing at the mouth and making silly assertions.
Was Cavani an A lister when Napoli signed him ?
How old was Cavani when they signed him? 23! He's had time to develop into an A lister.
Negredo is 27.
How about Suarez when he signed for Liverpool ? Fight off Real Madrid did they ? How about Falcao when he sigened for Atletico, Barca in for him ?

At 27 years of age it is very doubtful that Negredo is going to improve very much.
People become A list players because clubs like us make them, in the exact circumstances we are doing now. Not all work out, but some do & the benefits outweigh the negatives.
List 10 players that became A list players from the age of 27 onwards.
In your own time...
