    does the two in so far excite you

    i like the fact steve is buying /loaning attacking minded players
    tthis lazarus fella sounds decent likes to run and dribble a bit like maxim to have to out options with pace will help the lads at the back

    just need a forward

    i fancy us getting one in the next few days
    with two fast wingers a fox in the box would be good

    I'd say more curious than excited...

    I'm not too sure how Bentaleb will fit into the system playing as one of two defensive midfielders... think he suits a three man field better and no attacking cm is going to thrive the way we currently set up...be interesting to see if Bruce is going to change things..

    I think Lazaro could have a good impact...I assume he will be used as a wing back as the Saint and Almiron are the main support for the strikers...again, unless Bruce is looking to change things up...

    I'm glad we've made some moves...a left wing back and a striker and I would call this a successful window...we will see...

    Yep...and I'd say those twp positions were needed more urgently.

    i think with a recognised holding mid and lazarus and maxim and shelvey in the mid looks a decnt middle
    3 at the back and a quicky up front with one behind him probabaly almiron

    Well that's the problem. in principle, what you said sounds canny but our options for that one up front are shocking.

    Don’t think Brucie is involved at all with transfers

    He just coaches badly what he is given
