Not if he does more cutting in from the wing and scoring, his crossing with his right peg isn't bad, and as he can use both feet the lb is in a difficult world
Looks a pretty good transfer window to me and in terms of squad depth we look strong.
Hopefully this will lead to stronger team on the pitch with all the competition for places and we wont continually be lining up with JOB, Cole & Vaz Te as part of our starting 11.
If I ever find myself on a sinking ship, I hope Natalie and the lovely Hayley McQueen are next to me.
Just in case you missed their ice bucket challenge. Love the fact that Hayley has gone with the high heels rather than flip-flops!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7KW0pbRvLZ8
No 4th CB and Bassong still stuck at Norwich, doing 'eff all whilst his feud with Adams continues..
.
I can't believe I've seen this one mentiones so often on here, I think he's an absolute donkey. Would rather blood a youngster or have the relegator back.
Also, I'm glad to see Hull and Manure had a blinding day in the market yesterday just before we play them both! If the defence don't get their act together playing against v.Persie, Rooney, Di Maria and Falcao could be interesting.

We had a £4m bid for Olsson turned down too.
But we got Kouyate and Cresswell. So it turned out well eh.
Kouyate is a midfielder. Though I do wonder if he will now be converted back into a CB to accommodate Song slotting into midfield..
At Left-Back the cover for Cresswell is also a bit thin. Meanwhile it appears George McCartney is still a free agent? I hope he's kept fit over summer - an injury or 2 in the full-back positions and we could have last year's Carlton Cole scenario repeated again.. :lol:
I wasn't suggesting we should have gone for Redmond. I was suggesting we should have gone for Bassong.
As a sidenote I was expressing general surprise that no other Prem club took Redmond off of Norwich's hands..
I didn't quote your original post. It was just a continuation of your mention of Redmond and Norwich in general.
You then quoted me. But fwiw, I don't think Bassong is great tbh. But very glad we got Cresswell instead of Olsson, he got sent off and banned for 3 matches for pushing the ref in his first game.
