The Suprise

Some (new) fans on here had better start preparing themselves for a few disappoinments in the coming twelve months or so. We are still a fair way from attracting players like Kaka and Messi, this will come but not yet. A comfortable top6 finish will be great progress for this season, we may sneak into the top 4 but probably not, we will not, I repeat, not mount a title challenge, again, this will come but not yet. People need to take themselves out of the sky and look at where we were a few years ago (unless they supported someone else back then!!) and compare it to where we are now, we have made huge progress but still have a way to go. Enjoy the ride but don't spoil the journey by wanting to get there before you have started out.

Sense prevails at last!!

I just fear boos and jeers from so called supporters if we are not 4-0 up by the 10th minute of each game. We need to appreciate where we have come from, where we are and where we eventiually will be and know that it is all progress but that it will take a little time.
 
We don't need to attract Kaka, Messi or some other big wig from a massive club to be challenging for the title. Have the top 4 clubs done such signings? Not really. Look at the teams of the top 4 clubs, and see where the players came from. Who are the best players of each of the big 4 teams? Did they come from Milan, Juventus or Real Madrid as superstars to the big 4? No, this is not the case. Players like Vidic, Cesc, Torres, Gerrard, Ferdinand, Carragher, Mascherano, Evra, Essien, Drogba, Terry, Arshavin, Clichy etc etc did not come from some giant club as a superstar to the big 4. We need to think about this and act accordingly.

Can't argue with that - Deals between the big 4 don't happen and I think its fair to say its the big 5 in terms of the transfer market at least. So to get a couple of Arsenals established players is a shrewd move. And then the best of the rest Barry RSC and Lescott if poss.

To replace them they have to take a gamble as Arsenal have done with that Dutch defender and are trying to with that Morrocan striker - they may come off they may not.
 
The big suprise is that we danny mills and ben thatcher well be returning to the club and will get a 8 year contract on 300,000 a week and form the world best defence with garrido and ben haim! That would be a surprise! They wrote off all the clubs loans! Thats more then enough for me!
