What is the meaning of this?

MH has had a full sason to scout the world for better than RD and Ned.

If he can't find better than these two ( i know they aren't that bad ) it shows how poor his scouting infrastructure is.

I assume this is just media talk, but if we went into this season with the same defense as last season we would probably do better BUT i imagine 95% of City supporters would be dissapointed seeing as it was our main weakness last season.

Hope he didn't put all his eggs in the Terry basket which was an obvious long shot

I've always had the impression that City regarded the Terry thing as a bonus, over and above whatever our intentions were re other targets. The apparent lack of progress on the Lescott thing is a worry, though.
