Good to see some new players come in, though I don't know much about Jova and Wilson. Think Joe Cole is a good signing. But we're probably gonna loose Masch and that leaves the central midfield threadbare. For me, neither Lucas or Aquilani are top4 quality. Though Aquilani only had one season, thought he was even poorer than Lucas last year, style with no substance (I'm not buying the injury excuses). Whether Roy can get more out of them remains to be seen. IMO he needs to buy a quality defensive central midfielder to replace Masch (hopefully with the money that Masch's sale brings in). And do it fast. Would love to nab Scott Parker but see WH are looking for 20mill and LFC don't seem to be in the running for him anyway based on reports at the moment. Roy might even think about playing Joe Cole in the middle as an attacking mid, instead of on the wing. And for me Maxi is a decent player and nothing more, won't set the world on fire. So although we've made a few signings, think we need to make a couple more. Hopefully Roy can bring in guys of Cole's ability in their positions, then we might be able to make a decent go at the top4. Know it's alot to ask of Roy in season1 under the current circumstances at the club, it's more hope than expectation.
