The signings will do fine

Fri Jan 24, 2014 4:41 pm

Dæhli - Manchester United fans still cant believe why he was let go and most wonder why he was never given a chance in the first team before going back to Molde FK. He's young and has won trophies already. Granted, they've been in Norway but at his age to start collecting trophies of any sort is a very good achievement. Also, Molde would have been under a lot of pressure in the run in to collecting the league titles yet he and his team mates had the nerve to see it out and collect the titles. They did that under Solskjær which proves his teams have the bottle and mentality to see things through. Of course its only Norway but Molde FK won 3 trophies in 3 years under his guidance and Dæhli and Eikrem were important players during that time.

Eikrem - Another who left Manchester United after not being given a chance. His ball retention ability is good and he can control play and he makes clever passes and things happen. He does not panic and is of vital importance to the possession game Solskjær likes to play. Manchester United have spent around £60-70m now on two midfielders yet they've let two young Norwegian's go over the last few years who've been tipped for big things. Look how well Januzaj has done so it proves that until they're given their true chance and a time to step up and give the big league a go, nobody really knows. Many for example, wrote off Noone as not being Premier League quality early on yet he's proven he can make the step up and give defenders a torrid time because of the skills he does possess.

Berget - He's played for Molde FK and has served Ole well. The important part is not that however. The important part is this guy already knows how to link up with the likes of Eikrem and will be on the same wavelength as him when it comes to reading passes. When Berget makes these runs space opens up on the pitch for others as he's being tracked. Solskjær has only a few months to keep us up so he needs players who can quickly understand his game. If we were a mid table team he'd probably have settled to see the season out and bring in much better quality to suit his style in the summer but we're not in a position where we can afford to do that. Im looking forward to the linking up of Berget, Eikrem, Noone, Zaha if he signs on loan and Dæhli when he gets his chance. Once things start to tick over I think we may just start seeing some very intricate play.

Certainly am! Trying to wait patiently for the second half of Season 2 to air over here, rather than watching it early online. It's killing me! :D

Personally I believe he got the 3 Norwegians in as he had first hand experience of their potential and was in a position to offer them the opportunity to bed into English football with the aim of benifiting themselves and Cardiff City but I think you will see the likes of Jones ,Fabio, Zaha, Ramos and Diouf being the players on their way here being tasked with keeping us in the Premiership.

Arrow is better than Smallville in my opinion as it seems darker and the two stories running parallel to one another give it a different edge entirely. Arrow is probably my favourite television show at the moment along with The Walking Dead, Justified and Game of Thrones.
