    Smile Toshack on Alonso

    It turns out Tosh used to manage Alonso. Here's what Tosh says, "I don't remember a former youth team player causing such an impact at the club,"

    The stuttering start aside, benitez seems to have made the best possible signing in the most important position. The prospect of Gerrard and Alonso controlling the midfield is exciting.

    No more CRAB!!!

    Talking

    The thought of Alonso and Gerrard in midfield is mouthwatering. Toshack knows the spanish market well and his opinion has to be respected.

    If everything said about Alonso is true we have picked up a player that can take the team onwards and upwards.

    The kid is good, I have seen him play for Espana and in La Liga. He is highly rated in Spain. Heck, Josemi and Alonso did well for me in Yahoo La Liga. Solid buys.

    Default Very exciting

    I read the report on him on the BBC, very exciting indeed.

    May have read wrong, but is he only 22? Rafa has been very quiet on his signings, but so far Josemi has been more than solid, and the thought of Alonso almost has me pulling the credit card out for the away shirt with his name on. (I said nearly)

    As I posted before, 4 points from 6 and we haven't got started yet....
