Well, it’s nice to post something extremely positive for once, in that we’ve signed a player that the team has been craving for, for years.
While I’m very minded to say “it’s about time”, I won’t dwell on that, as it’s simply a big boost that the club and it’s supporters needed just before the season kicks off.
I would imagine Sanchez will get the biggest cheer by a mile tomorrow (if I read correctly that he’s eligible to play, that is), but we should be careful in not placing too much expectation on his shoulders in my opinion.
I’d suggest he’s going to take maybe a bit of time to settle and I for one am certainly going to give him a while before I judge him.
If he’s half as good as Claude Makelele, who he tries to model himself on, we’ll have a very decent player.
So the deal’s done and I’ll quite simply link to what has been written on the OS, as it’s actually a decent article, with something of substance for once;

Ki song just scored for Swansea man utd loosing
Nath both watching then
Aston villa on BT next sat against Newcastle midday.
yeah lmao couldn’t resist a peep at utd love seeing um lose lmao yeah were on nxt week same time early shopping nxt week, like the supermarket sweep only quicker
wot did you make of young playing left back or if u like left wingback i think against a quick side like villa thats suicide, they are basically playing 3 defenders wished we had um 2day
Strange that, might be that he’s for the chop one day, not impressed with that ki young to light wait for me, what you think?
ki played alright but not as good as the ROCK lmao
Wish we had someone like Sevilla’s Monchi to run this club. For them to sell players like Dani Alves, Adriano, Luis Fabiano, Jesus Navas, Negredo, Moreno and Rakitic and replace them with bargain buys to create profits to pay players and keep the club above the red line yet still win trophies and not only play in Europe but take out the Europa League three times in the past 10 years is amazing
Well well 2-:1 Swansea cannot be bad.
If you replaced Senderos Westwood Weimenn and Gaby with Okore Sanchez Benteke and Kozak dare I say it on here but our line up would look good
Sorry with todays line up
Benteke and Kozak together? Meh. Weimann and Benteke looked decent together, I’d play them.
Don’t rate Weimann at all. Would prefer a 5 man midfield and Benteke as a lone striker than Weimann in the team
weimann will come good this season 🙂
No sign of Okore in todays squad, did he pick up an injury again?
No Okore, Cole or Gardner in the squad!
Giddy, Thanks for your concern mate! I thought work permit OK just needs International clearance which I think applies to all overseas players. Anyway someone will no doubt put me right?
Same old hoof ball tactics I’m afraid!
Stoke running us ragged
still 0.0 though
Cissokho really standing out for me so far.
Yes…Cissokho looks solid
Gabby misses good chance
apparantly open goal from 6 yards ffs
My patience concerning gabby is now running beyond thin.
sounds like he bottled it yet again 0.0 with dross at the bk so not too bad
Bent would have netted IMO
im amazed bent has started does fuck all but when he gets a chance usually scores
Langford, is that the same lazy Darren Bent you described a few weeks back?
Oh jesus Gabby.. why couldn’t that fall to Weimann?…..
Because Weimann would of missed that chance aswell.
Who do you suggest then?????????
Half time 0 0….pretty even only one decent chance…Gabby fluffed it…good debuts for Cissokho, Richardson. Definately looking more solid at the back but not too much threat from Stoke.
Guzan taking risks with his kicks…..Westwood booked for bad tackle. I have a feeling he may be red carded for too many rash challenges.
Andi…get in there
Get in there you were saying BERK??????????
ANDI WEIMANN!!!!
Great defending by Shawcross. Can see why oohah was so desperate for us to sign him. 😉
ha ha who cares 1.0
Lol….Keane giving Guzan ‘the eyes’….kicking is atrocious.
Vlaar and Senderos immense at the back….so far!
Nice to see mate. 😀
what are new players like langford
Lots to like and it seems there is a bit of Keano in our midfield. These are the teams we have to beat. Fingers crossed and UTV
Oh and does wiziwig seems a little clearer this year….hmm
were going to win the league lol
You never know.
Lol…yes, I love wiziwig 🙂
