Summer Transfers 2012

Key Players

Tim Krul will be crucial in net this season.



Coloccini will be the rock in defence this season and maybe the next.



Cabaye is our playmaker and I will be looking towards him to set up and score some goals.



Arguably one of our best players. I am hoping he will provide us with some goals and assists from the Right Wing.



Probably our best player. Hopefully, he will be banging in goals for fun this season.

A decent start here mate. Defo following the story. Nicely written
