    I worry Barca will spank us home and away.
    But we can win our other two home games,if our defence gets to grip with its self.
    I worry about Ambros trying to walk the ball out of defence in the group games,he may cost us a few goals.
    We also wont get the best out of this new group for a few months,to late for europe.

    How anyone can see we are stronger than last season is beyond me. Hopefully it all works out for the players we've signed but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't worried.

    As I said, I'm glad to be held to my word. :50::smiley-laughing002: Hooper wouldn't push Huntelaar at Schalke, I doubt many players would. I'm saying he's better than what we had not what Schalke have - which I think is fair.

    As I posted about 5 minutes ago, we haven't improved much over the summer, if at all.

    Yes we tried to sign him, but we didn't. Lennon wanted 2 players and got none.

    He got Pukki today. He got Biton yesterday. He got a few before that.

    If you can't get who he wants do you just sign any two?!

    Time will tell about our signings, however after the excitement of our CL group i am now concerned how we might do. I genuinely believed we would have made a proven goal scorer a high priority. As for the CL, Them english wanks will be waiting with baited breath to stick the boot in also - *.

    Exactly. Pukki's only 23 and was at one of the biggest clubs in Europe, his game time limited by one of the best strikers in the world, currently. Hooper is 25 and is the second choice striker at Norwich City.

    Board have a lot to answer for, very poor window, seems the biscuit tin mentality is well alive and I fully expect Lenny to be disappointed with the backing he has received.

    cant say its dissapointing spent nearly £10million on 5 new players, would like 1 more player but not be too bothered if we dont get another we will win the league again and we are in the champions league thats what we wanted, dont think we will qualify for last 16 but defo challenge for the europa league

    All depends on how Pukki pans out really. If he's a clinical finisher we'll be fine, but I don't think we're as strong as last year.

    Stop deflecting he said today he wanted two more today at the match when those deals were wrapped up. That to anyone with any brains, shows the manager needed more. And don't say we got plenty we now have a squad of 22 which is the smallest squad we have had in a long time. There was about 12 out for 6 in.

    By that standard we shouldn't sign anyone because no player guarantees anything.
