Inspirational Pulis strikes again if it comes off
Are you actually serious at moaning about the Sandro signing? Central Midfield was clearly the main priority given that we only have Fletcher, Yacob and Gardner fit and we usually play 3 there.
As for the player, he's 26, has regularly represented Brazil and has Premier League experience. He's played lots of games for a good Spurs side including Champions League football.
The loan with an option to buy gives us chance to look at him, see what he's like and for him to prove his fitness. Seems like a good deal to me and really can't see any reason to be negative about it.
Yes, we need other positions such as a decent creative midfielder, left back and forward if Saido goes. But a defensive midfielder was also a priority. When Yacob was out earlier in the season, Evans had to cover there. IMO it's a good signing but hopefully there is more to come.
Slick, don't mind us signing him but IMO our number one priority should be to improve the creativity and pace with the addition of an attacking midfielder not a defensive one. Failing to do so again smacks of Pulis negativity which surely you must agree.
