Apperantly we're looking at Goodwillie..
The puns alone would make this move alright..
[/quote]
Everytime I've seen him he's been excellent but if we sign him it will obviously be a shot-in-the-dark because the difference in standard between the EPL and SPL is huge.
Anything under £4m and he could be worth taking a risk on.

According to another site we're after Mata, and if we cant get him then its Downing.
Young isnt going to happen.

I'm not particularly enamoured by either. We really need to be looking at better wingers.

technically that means that downing and mata don't particularly like you. it should be 'enamoured of', or 'enamoured with'.
you're welcome.

Off the top of my head, I can think of at least 10 wingers I'd rather have than Downing. It really isn't that hard.
[/quote]
Just curious, who are they? Not a Downing defender, just genuinely curious about 10 good, affordable wingers that we could buy.

If the best wingers we can get is Downing, we shouldn't buy any wingers.

If we get Downing it will be like that dreadful feeling of all last summer saying "please dont buy Koncheskey" and then us actually buying him.
Please not Downing.

Well we will need to bring in some homegrown players if we are to ship out Cole, Konchesky, Jones and whatever other cack we've got left. Downing would be a decent signing as far as im concerned.
[/quote]
The youngsters will definitely cover the homegrown quota.....so if thats the only reason downings being bought its pointless as there are better wingers out there.

I quite liked Bellamy too, but for whatever reason his time with us wasn't a huge success.

Yeah, of the players I listed, the reason I didn't want Bellamy is because he's a cunt and not a lack of talent - with the others I just didn't rate them.

I think he's OK, and IMO he gets excessive stick on here, but even so I want us to sign better than OK players.

Re: Re: Rumour mill
I'd want us to sign better players, but he's not as bad as being made out. As long as it's not stupid money I'm not arsed. Fantastic crosser, decent pace, good at striking the ball and he's a good team player. Young tries to do it all, downing is like kuyt
But not as deadly obv

The full downing syndrome.... he is a poor mans Darren Anderton FFS...
It is gonna be fascinating seeing who arrives, i really hope that instead of signing up an average player like Downing, Commoli has got some unhheralded but superb signing in mind.... they might not work out of course but at least there is the possibility of them being top class, Downing will never be.
