He is a full Spanish international and was the leading player at Valencia - I don’t see how there can be any negatives. As Asturian has said there is no way we would have signed him if Valencia were not in financial trouble.

I don’t mind being criticised for being positive but I can back my optimism up with what is happening on and of the field.

Radz has created a proper team on and off the field to deliver success. There are proper plans that are followed which get updated as we progress.

Orta whether you like him or not is a big name in football. Angus is a seasoned MD and has developed the commercial side impressively.

I still can’t believe that we have Bielsa who the likes of Man U, Barcelona, Chelsea would be happy to have as head coach. He has revolutionised all the football aspects of the club.

He clearly improves players and if we bring players who are better quality rough diamonds then imagine why he will do with them.

We have a settled squad and the way we play should suit the prem. in the deepest darkest days of Bates or GFH there is no way any of us could have imagined well certainly not me being in this position.

It may go badly wrong, it may be a spectacular success - nothing in life is certain but crikey I feel sorry for people if they can’t feel excitement that we are bringing in good players for a crack at the premier league with Bielsa at the helm.
