Ayew is making Balaban look like Ronaldo so far

We needed a keeper.  We still do.

to be fair that was one Sherwood had right from the start, Guzan will need dropping sooner rather than later and Bunn is nowhere near first team standard.

Szczesny was available in the summer and maybe should have come in

While the likes of Ayew may need more time, I'm happy to write off Lescott already

Looks like he is pulling a train, our eyes werent deceiving us in the cup tie last year I'm afraid

Not even David Cameron playing football whilst pleasuring a pig's head could make Balaban look any better than Balaban. He defined shite.

Whether it was Sept or Nov, he still didn't sign Cissokho for us.

Ayew looks worse if that's possible.

No he doesn't. That's just hyperbole. None of us playing for the first team could make Balaban look like Ronaldo as the only thing Balaban did was be shit.
Ayew has so far been as ineffective as Balaban was, and that's it.

Praet was heavily linked, & colleagues out there say he would have been super for us.
