Dorrans and Alves will get another chance to prove their worth I reckon but you can't really say they've been good signings in all honesty - less said about the rest the better. Basically agree with that...I'm still a bit unsure if we can challenge with candieas as a starter...squad option yip I'm fine with that as he will offer width for us in certain games...Morelos I do like but he needs to work on his composure....if he nails that he becomes a 30 goal striker no doubt.

Ozblue 4,331 Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 45 minutes ago, hammer time said: Strange signing that keeper he stayed about a month then returned home if I remember correctly Arrived beginning of January and left in March. Gostomski had the talent to be the best Polish 'keeper in years, but he had a lot of problems in the head that didn't do him any favours in his younger day. He then had personal concerns with the family fishing business in his hometown of Kartuzy that occurred around the same time he signed for us, so he decided to go home. I watched him play several times when I was in Poland and he was brilliant, especially when he virtually destroyed "My Polish team" Legia Warsaw on his own during the Polish Cup Final. A total waste of talent. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueKnight87 17,286 Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 The last 3 windows we've had to more or less fully replace the squad. Really hoping this is the last one and we get a core of players to form the spine of a successful squad that we can build on with additional quality over the next windows.

Creampuff 22,628 Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 We’ve signed exactly 11 players (inc. loans) in each of the last 3 summer windows. We also signed 11 in 2004 and 2006. We signed 12 in 2000, and 13 in 2007. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cr3_bear 14,862 Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Did we not sign a decent amount in 2004 summer before the helicopter Sunday season. Prso , novo , Alex Rae , Boumsong etc ? Sure there was more but they were the standouts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We signed Mladenovic, Vignal and Andrews that summer too but we signed a few in January though - Kygrikos, Buffell, Watterus, Ferguson, Djordic. Trying to think without Google who the 12 was we signed in 2000 - Miller, Lovenkrands, Ritchie, Ricksen, Konterman, Johnston were only signed in summer before the season started - De Boer, Flo, Fernandes, Gayle and Christiansen all came in after the season started.

Jack The Flipper 5,936 Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Although I think it's an interesting question, I'd much rather see quality over quantity. If you add up the amount of complete failures and successes the ratio wouldn't be very easy on the eye. It's such a shame that so much money has been wasted on passengers and nobodies when we could have used that money to get a few superb players in instead. Although you can never be 100% right regarding a player, there have been plenty questionable signings that many supporters have wondered about and have turned out shite - so why don't managers see it?

Leeds_Bear 8,110 Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 On 25/06/2018 at 12:51, K.A.I said: I'm just curious if anyone knows? was thinking about it there if the Roma forward signs on loan, I think that makes it 8 with more to come. I know Advocaat signed Numan, Van Bronckhorst, Charbonnier, Kanchelskis, Amato, Wallace, Hendry, Prodan in his first window. Smith's last season first time round, I think he signed Niemi, Vidmar, Thern, Stensaas, Gattusso, Negri, Amoruso, Porinni, Johansson that's 9 - but has there ever been more in one go? McCoist in the summer of 2012 - Cribari, Faure, Arygiou, Templeton, Black, Sandaza, Kyle, Shiels and Stella. 9 also. 2012 was the best. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was Compton that mentioned 2007 - I think we signed a lot that summer window - Sebo, Papac, Sionko, Clement, Letizi, Martin, Bardsley, N'Dayie, Svensson. Depends if you want to include Furman, Stanger, Ponroy and Loy who weren't really first team players. I wouldn't include them tbh. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
