Fair enough. On the question of injuries there has clearly been a problem. However I maintain that at least some of our better signings have been attracted to the club as a result of the great man being here. When Vicente signed, I was so excited because I remembered the match when he played against man u at Old Trafford and in a team of stars he was simply outstanding. The only player I can compare him to in terms of ability and skill and the excitement I feel when he plays or receives the ball is Wardy. There has been a long time since I felt anything like that in football. I was a child when I felt like that last but now I'm 46 and the same feeling is back. I dare say if I was a man u fan I would be desensitized to the feeling but for me, an Albion fan, it is novel and wonderful and I don't want it to stop. I simply love watching the magic that is Vicente and personally I would pay an extra 100 on my season ticket even if he only played 10 times.
Gotsmanov and Lawrenson both as good and they earned their corn when with us. Vicente has half a season to make up for the last 18 months.
