Neither really. I'd prefer us to look outside the prem to find players with the ability to

do well in it, not just cope in it. Offer players their chance.

As I said to Charles, just a bit frustrated, this team now seems a long way behind the one that was pulling Arsenal apart at the end of last season.
Where as Swansea, who also had to change manager, have added some imaginative quality and improved again.

Would have loved to see what the team PL & IC had built would have done this season, some really promising signs in the Spurs and Arsenal games at the end of last season.

        That's a fair point. Anyway, I've got a party with a bouncy castle to get to. Laters. (n/m) (NCFC) - megson, Aug 27, 10:12:56
