Love the Doc. Cuts out the media bullshit in less than 140 characters. And for the entire team to have brought in good players to address pressing needs in January is impressive.

While hopefully true I'm not sure criticism of recent signings is that wise an approach!

well....he funded it so I guess he is now non-too-impressed with what was done and the results thereafter. Mighty miffed, in fact. Happier now.

I cannot keep up with this.  Is that the latest tweet and is this after the confirmation of the Icelandic fella?
Therefore Houlliwhatshisface and another one not currently on the radar or has Houli... reduced to a 50%?

Bit harsh on Adomah?  He's been a decent player for us and I'd put him as a good signing.  Agree with the others though

Its all about opinions.

Maybe he meant Ayew was Poor to Average and Adomah was in the Excellent bracket , innit ?

I think you missed a couple...
Gollini 6
De Laet ?
Elphick 5
Tshibola 5.5
Adomah 6.5
Chester 8
Kodjia 9
McCormack 2 (would have said 5.5 until recent developments).
Jedinak 6.5

Gollini - cost us more than saved us  4/10
De Laet - who could tell
Elphick - Came with big rep but not really lived up to it 5/10
Tshibola - In a midfield as poor as ours to not cement a place is criminal - 4/10
Adomah - flatters to deceive at times - 6/10
Chester - when played on RH then I think a rock - 8/10
Jedinak - started awfully, another over hyped player I think like Elphick, ok when played in right formation 5/10
Kodja - lot of money signing but has very good patches although not the finished article - 8.5/10
McCormack - Really thought he would be a masterstoke - instead turned out to be a Bellend 1/10

Latest after Birka so I reckon Houri 99 and a striker 50

Yes.  Jordan Rhodes is the waiting game.  What with McCormack transfer out and haggle fee for Rhodes plus other competitors depends if he wants to drop down a league...
