Earned? what does that even mean? Didn't we spend more money than many sides in England over the past couple of decades? Didn't Man U? Thats how those titles were "earned" weren't they? City have just done it over a shorter time frame.

If I recall correctly, the Blackburn rovers side that won the title was mostly English and Scandinavian. I could believe the above. Whether its true or not is another question.

There's no question the current signings will improve the team. However if someone had told us six months ago, that we would be spending this amount of money on Carroll, Downing, Adam and Henderson (even Suarez?). I doubt the reaction would have been as favorable. Over the past few months, the forum has collectively argued itself into accepting that these are all we could or should get. Whether that is true or not, what will be telling will be how Kenny can mould these players into a unit. The unknown factor here was DC, I wonder who picked Suarez as a transfer choice. From what I recall of Kenny at Blackburn, he mostly signed British/Scandinavian players. Could that tendency have pushed us away from looking harder at other transfer targets. Suarez is obviously a special talent but is an indication that non-British talent is often undervalued. Again, we've been burned before with non-british talent so what do I know........This is a pointless discussion really since we will never know what factors played into making decisions. In the end, if he can get this team to perform well as a unit then really none of us can complain and as Chewie said, he has earned himself the benefit of the doubt. The owners have delivered and he can have no complaints.
