Quote ="Ancient Provocateur"Well now I think your being a bit harsh here. Look at Nero to take one example. The likes of The Punisher and Konichwabitches were flogging him as a poor signing but Macca has improved his form this year. Also Halley has shown improvement after Macca gave him an ego check by sending him to a lesser club.
Come one Mr. Bullseye, always look on the bright side of life!'"
Nero's had the benefit of a decent pre season. He's admitted as much himself that his lack of pre season last year left him playing catch up. Besides, even you must admit that anything would have been an improvement on his showings in 2008.
As for Halley, it seemed his spell at Wakey was the catalyst for him getting a regular shot in the first team. Some might say he should've had that shot ages ago when he was playing second fiddle to McAvoy.
