Barry Sanchez Posted 30 July, 2013 Share Posted 30 July, 2013 where are our signings? Cortese better be prepared to spend on a striker or we shall suffer. Van Wolfswinkel, Hooper and now Quagliarella, good good signings, are they going for a top 4 spot instead of us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barry Sanchez Posted 30 July, 2013 Author Share Posted 30 July, 2013 Van Wolfswinkel is an amazing signing, could be the buy of the season, Hooper not too shabby and Quagliarella an unknown, certainly better than our premium signings. Wanyama is good mind but not a superstar signing, for us to get into Europe we need another quality striker bare minimum, Norwich have got one at least assured.

The 3rd is the icing on the cake if they get him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint-Armstrong Posted 30 July, 2013 Share Posted 30 July, 2013 Van Wolfswinkel is not amazing. Hooper, probably decent enough. Did well in England and the SPL, lets see what he can do. However, if we'd signed Fer (who is not as good as Wanyama IMO) and Garrido, you'd have seen them as bang average signings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobM Posted 30 July, 2013 Share Posted 30 July, 2013 Have Norwich done good business? Was their squad as good as ours beforehand? Surely you should judge them as a whole, rather than on three individual players. As a squad we're doing well, we're certainly stronger than Norwich IMO. That's what counts. They needed two strikers of this quality, we need just one to compliment our existing strikers and there is almost a month left before we can judge the success of this window.

Wes Tender Posted 30 July, 2013 Share Posted 30 July, 2013 So, considerably less wealthy than us Norwich, have aced us to the cream of Summer signings. My God, their board must be bloody astute players in the marketplace! Has it escaped your attention that there is still some time to go during this transfer window and that we might yet make signings that will have them sit up and pay attention to us? Have Norwich done good business? Well judging from your orgasmic state, you obviously think that they have. But as there have been plenty of precedents of imported players failing to make the grade in the Premier League, it remains to be seen whether Wolf's Winky, Hooper or Quagliarella can cut the mustard. We could certainly have got Hooper here if we wanted, but I suspect that he is no longer deemed to be good enough for us and we are aiming higher than him.

I'd doubt that, more PL money and roughly equivalent gates would suggest that they should have at least as much to spend as us.

Van Wolfswinkel did score a lot of goals last season and the one before, don't know too much about the homogenity of Portuguese football though. 5 goals in a 7 nil thumping of some Atlantic island minnows isn't worth the same as a winning goal against Man U or Chelsea. Not that I know that he scored his goals like that though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pingwing Posted 30 July, 2013 Share Posted 30 July, 2013 Didn't Norwich start out with a worse set of players in the first place, a lot of guys who are adept at kick and rush football, so quite a few signings to try and move away from that dross was always going to be needed... We on the other hand have a decent standard of players to play properly anyway and are just trying to add depth and talent whilst enabling the academy a route into first team football.
