    As for the other question Hope who knows we have only seen one so far anything can happen.
    I believe that is what Hope was alluding to. Tagging players as ordinary before we even kickoff...

    Adams did well in the German league and had played since he was a ****ager in the US side.

    Arnie is a Danish international and is rated by lots of ex pros.

    Roca was a squad player at Bayern Munich who Bayern were happy to keep but he wanted to play more regularly.

    Stop embarrassing yourself with your bile and vitriol. For one who gets upset if anything you say is not quoted verbatim you do have a habit of twisting things.

    A lot of people like to hate on certain players but Roberts has talent he just couldn’t do it in the premier league for us. There were times in the EFL when I thought he looked as if he would develop and be good. You seen to like writing people off which either suggests you are bitter or you much have had the most perfect Midas touch in life - hmmmn wonder which it can be.

    The margins between players who make it and those who don’t are often fine. I guess nuance and subtlety isn’t your thing though.
    What a delightful person you are. I have no worries about where a player comes from, just what they bring to the club. I'm a racist? You have no idea who I am, my background, ethnicity, race, religion, colour, and yet feel able to use slurs of the most offensive nature, and for what end?

    Sinisterra may be all you say, and so? The Dutch leagues have deteriorated significantly over recent years, their presence (or lack of) in European competitions, there hasn't been a Dutch CL winner since the mid-90s!!!!!!

    The other names you mention are equally inconsequential, and Roca has struggled to play any kind of regular football for over 2 seasons!

    I don't spout bile and vitriol unlike you and others, I mention facts, verifiable information not conjecture and opinion. I don't mind anyone having an opinion, but please let it be based on something other than hopeless optimism.

    And as for Roberts, he is not, nor will he ever be, a Premiership layer as long as he has a hole where his ars5e is. I wrote him off, as did many others, before Bielse came (somewhat belatedly) to his senses and decided he wasn't "fit for purpose". He has stolen a living from LUFC and consequently deprived the club of funds it might have used to better effect (bit like the stupidity regarding Costas enhance contract), but you continue to defend the indefensible, knock yourself out.

    And "nuance and subtlety", in the PL are you f00king insane? this isn't some kind of arthouse game, its real f00king life and we need to wake up and smell the coffee, so do you. the players we have acquired in this window are just that, window dressing, no matter what country or continent they hail from.

    So with your lofty opinions and know all attitude you have done precisely what in professional football to give you a better clue than those who earn their living in it - I suspect a big fat zero.

    Whenever we sign non English players you typically slag them off without giving them a chance - sounds like the sort of thing Nigel Farage would do.

    I didn’t say you were I said you come across that way - I don’t know you other than the small insights one gets from here but that is the impression you often create from my perspective when anything not born on these shores.

    Words matter and you often come out with angry or negative outbursts.

    I guess you will say you don’t care what people think but your periodic mega flounces when you declare you want the world to end and YOU are NEVER EVER posting again might suggest otherwise.

    Maybe show a bit more consideration to others and not trying to get them to concede they are always wrong and you might find it repaid in kind.

    And I'm accused of "wriggling". "You come across as.........", fancy way of saying "you are", bit like "however" is a fancy "but", it means the same.

    I suggest you look back at my positive posts regarding Hernandez, Klich, Alioski, Struijk, Meslier, Hjelde, Raphina, none of whom were "borne of these shores". also have a look at those slightly less positive relating to some who were (Cooper as an example, even though he's of Scots descent), and you'll see I'm very even handed in my plaudits and criticisms.

    Ok, here is my considered view of your last post...........Sanctimonious, patronising bilge. Considerate enough?

    Dont really understand why the tosspot gets under so many peoples skin - as everyone should by now know he is always right and it's the rest of us that need to wake up and smell the coffee ffs

    Just waiting to see how things pan out this coming season before judging any of our signings - a little like most of us did about Raphina - but he who knows all - rubbished the signing of Rapha on the last day or the window as a "panic buy" of some unknown - hmm - yet just now he is moaning about our selling of "our most creative player"

    Will always be the same - rubbish every player we buy before they have kicked a ball - then rubbish the club for selling them on at a vast profit

    He will NEVER change, always right, and a happy bunny toboot!

    Back to the original thread about Roberts, never was a premiership player, an average championship player at best, hope he does OK at qpr, never seemed to had what it takes.

    Weird one Norfolk as he seemed to have the physical attributes and was skilful but just never seemed to have the confidence he belonged - bit like Helda Costa.
