I asked the question as I'm under the impression that we haven't signed anyone in quite a few years that has got us remotely excited. The responses certainly confirm that. In general it would appear that we tend to get more enthused by bringing in players that are creative and attacking, understandable enough - we've certainly failed in that regard over a number of seasons.
Our status as a team that has been in the Premier League probably has an effect, too. 13 years ago, when we got promoted back to this level, signings like Macheda and Le Fondre would have been seen far more positively.
I thought it was an interesting question. The answers confirm the malaise we've been in.
