I do love the optimism our fans have when it comes to signing new players. We all have really high hopes for the new saviour of the club. Sadly, we lose all of our positive thinking after the new signing has played a few games as they usually fall in to the same catagory as the rest of the sorry shit that we have.
By no means a saviour but a player with a bit of prescence, something our midfield lacks. Ideally we need another one but perhaps OTJ can compliment what we alrady have? Who knows, perpahs OTJ and Easton may be a good midfield combo once Easton gets back from injury? I also look forward to kanyuka (who has been pretty good in midfield) and Tudor Jones playing in MF. |

Kanu is only 19 ? though, so he is still learning the game, I think he will be a great player in the future going by the way he plays now and that bit more experience under his belt.
Thats what I meant! ie he's not the finished product yet, and if he was he wouldnt be playing for us |

I look forward to never seeing kanyuka play centre mid again. He can do a decent job as a destroyer against decent opposition away but give him the ball and he looks lost. We really could do so much better. |

Granted but what kind of decent player wants to join a team in a relegation battle? We can't expect top players to come in, especially this time of season, teams are trying to send out players who are not going to be around next season. |

Players like Robson Kanu, Greer and hopefully tudor-Jones  Its horses for courses really. I dont think Kanyuka is any worse in midfield than Allen or Pook or Timlin on a bad day. he has the advantage of being physical but the disadvantage of being clueless with the ball at his feet. |

Last throw of the dice then....I'd have liked Noble. Tudor Jones though has the added kudos of having been wanted by Kingy. He obviously then, could have been a top player, now just a question of fitness.

Let's wait for the guy to kick a ball in anger before we shoot him down....The same happened with Barry Corr....Almost everyone (Bar myself and Reg, if i recall correctly?) shot him down before he'd kicked a ball, due to the negative comments from his former employers, yet he did alright for himself! (Albeit mainly in his first season), but nevertheless, lets give him a chance.
