The one thing people are missing about Crofts rejoining is the fact that Vicente will now be completely free to roam as Crofts will do the work of two players to fill in for him and both will cause so many problems from midfield.

Id be shitting myself if i was playing against Brighton this year
, as we not only have an outstanding starting XI, but our bench is also full of bloody good squad players...

Even more so if we find ourselves a proven goal scorer because it looks like we're capable of creating more chances with the additions to the squad.

That really would be the icing on the cake.

Welcome back with open arms Crofty, He is the missing link in our midfield. Anyone who is underwhelmed obviously hasn't seen him play.

Delighted, he was just the man we needed last season.

I remember when 'borough played at the Amex and thinking the differences between the two sides was the middfield, imo they controlled the game through the middle better then most. They had Robson, Bailey and Arca, A midfield of Bridcutt, Crofts and Vicente is stronger imo than that borough three.

What the f*** is wrong with you people......what would you prefer, a 30,000 seater stadium with 6,000 fans in it, get over yourself.

Err, whoosh, you get over yourself it was a f***ing joke, the smiley should have given it away :rolleyes:

Fantastic to have Crofts back, he was good before but will now be even better!!! Much prefer him to Trotter.....our midfield is now looking unbelievably strong, Crofts and Bridcutt together may well give Vicente pretty much a free role. :drool:

Crofts was a good player when he left us and is now even better, what more do people want ?

Free cycle helmets with every bicycle sold? Cycle paths that are distinct from the pavement by having a concrete 'lip' running along their length so pedestrians don't wander into them so readily while daydreaming?

We (Gus) have improved the squad so much this season, I am really glad they have increased the subs back to 7. I really cannot see how all these players are going to get a game otherwise!

Leaving Lua Lua, Noone, Dicker, New Striker, Elphick, Adgestein, Barnes, Dunk, Sparrow, Harley, Calderon fighting it out on the bench. I have probably missed one or two as well, like Brez and Casper!

I think we are going to have an amazing season even better than the last one which was pretty awesome! :D

I think its a very good signing, one in which i think wouldnt of happened if PL was still in charge at Norwich.

I do wonder why he hasn't gone elsewhere in the prem or why Norwich havent kept him, after what seemed a very good season in the Prem, looking at Norwichs squad they seem to have brought in a few new players so places are going to tough to come by.

I imagine this move also wouldnt of gone through if it was for the powers of Gus and the real ambition of the club to get to the Prem.

Quality when he was here before, good ball winner, box to box and scores goals, he can only have got better playing for Norwich, anyone any idea what we paid for him?

A Norwich supporting fan I know said this yesterday morning when I asked him if he'd heard the rumour at his end. I had no idea they had a Leeds midfield either!

We do seem to be overloaded in the mid-field area having signed another 2 this summer, and last year being a rotation fest too
We now have the complete Leeds mid-field 3 from a couple of seasons ago:- Howson; Johnson and Snodgrass as well as Pilkington; Bennett; Hoolahan; Surman although Crofts did play 20 minutes against Ajax on Tuesday

My genitals indicate to me the quality of our signings and I am pleased to report that I have a full erection and my testes are as tight as a bow string.:)

Strengthens the midfield considerably and will take a bit of the pressure off Bridcutt.
