talking about why we didn't buy a striker "in the summer you will see why we didn't"

we are signing someone significant methinks. just hope to f**k its not glass knees Falcao

Probably from all the recent rumours, it will be Costa and the return of Lukaku.

Can anyone provide the synopsis from this please? Any good tit bits?

 

Best and only real interesting bit was that he can understand why the fans may be confused as to why we've bought for every area except strikers, but that it will all make sense in the summer.

 

Could possibly be a secret agreement with United that they we sell them Mata and they sell us Rooney provided we don't make any noise about it until end of the season..?

I am just fine with this. I've watched most Atletico games this season on sky and Costa looks an absolutely class striker, albeit he has cooled off a little after their winter break.

God I really hope not.

Way he talked about strikers definitely sounded like something has already been agreed with someone significant...although he later denied any deals been agreed...but certainly got impression that he was telling fans it's going to be worth the wait...hope so!

Hope it's interesting in the right way though!  As I said, I really don't want it to be Shrek.  I didn't want him when he was linked with us last year.  He's now another year older (of course, but you know what I mean) and ok he's had a good season but I can just see another Torres situation and to have that after giving them Mata would be unbearable. 

 

So I want him even less than I wanted him last summer.  And I didn't think that was possible.

<br /><br />I was on the fence about him in the summer but the more time that passes (and the older and fatter he gets) the less sense it makes.

I'm loving that. Sounds like Jose has someone lined up and the groundwork has been laid. That's good enough for me. And if that means being patient and actually waiting to get the player Mourinho wants rather than signing the owner's latest overpriced, has-been fantasy, then that is yet another sign we are moving in the right direction as a club.

Excited about who he has lined up.

Hopefully this puts the fear in Eto'o and Torres so we get the best out them

I don't get how this is exciting or news? Surely it was bloody obvious that we were going to sign a striker in the summer, in fact its fukin mind boggling how it didn't happen last summer.

As for who, well in the summer just gone I really wanted Rooney, I've always been a massive fan and I think we'd have won the league this year with him in the team. Next summer, no thank you. He's reached the stage in his career where it's too late to be signing someone like that. Another nothing press conference as far as I'm concerned.
