It does seem in hindsight we had to lose a player in the window . Looked like MvE for large periods ,so not a total shock Sheaf left .
Really pleased MvE has stayed as he is flying at the moment

So your solution beyond 2 wingers & BTA is to play fullbacks out of position ? Rapha may not have been the answer but to not keep him even as a bench option is crazy.

Genuine question when 2 out of the starting 3 forwards are missing who fills in on the bench ?

Its not my solution, it's clearly Frank's who would of sanctioned the moves.

As for your question I answered that previously, we have to rotate to save risking injury and try and keep them on the grass till January.

Is it ideal? No it isnt, and as ive also said previously, the squad is 2 players short, but we are carrying players like Bidwell, Allen and Lats that we cant move on.

But even being short, There's still no place for Raphael who would never be used, we would play others out of position or change formation before Raphael (or Bassette) got a look in.

Allen , Bidwell and Lati are adequate squad players. None are now first choice back up which means we have strengthened in those areas but all three are adaptable to various roles when needed

Genuinely think we’ll see some more i comings from free agents. Tom Lawrence is the obvious one. Then if you signed a striker, you could have BTA as our back up RW. Deli Ali is an interesting one for anyone but think he’ll retire now

please let’s not start this with all these junk free agent players

 

[Alkhen]

Como have released Deli Alli.
Frank took him to Everton, but i can't see that really happening...can it ?

I did wonder that when I saw it. I mean he must be running out of choices now. That is if he actually wants to restart his career, after what he went through.

I wouldn't be against a short term deal if he's up for it

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Alli retired didnt he anyways?

 

[blunted]

Think Sheaf came out of the blue as a last minute thing that probably left us no time for a replacement. Offer was too good to miss.
Brum and Wrexham have moved the goalposts upping the ante on transfer fees that has made it difficult if you want to buy real quality.
Think where we were under SISU and where we are now.
If we get major injuries, we could be screwed, but that has always been the case in previous seasons.

Josh Brownhill is a free agent…

 

[gears87]

So the Norwegian and US leagues finish before the next transfer window, could Doug be saving a few spaces for a couple of rumoured signings in January?
Just a thought

 

[Perennial Lurker]

Deli Alli would be the worst signing since Bellamy .
Stop living in the past people

 

[SkyBlueStallion_89]

Just been looking at free agents, what about Josh Dasilva. Was apparently someone we were looking at earlier in the window. Jamal Lewis is also still available.

Free agents

In dieser Übersicht werden alle Spieler aufgeführt, die derzeit keine Verträge besitzen und somit Vertragslos sind.

We've got a Wolf might aswell add an Ox, Oxlade-Chamberlein I would pick up and if Ali got his head right could be good, all we got is frees now to plug gaps

 

[Perennial Lurker]

Josh Brownhill is a free agent…

I'm sure he's coming to us after turning down Wolves .....

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Emanuel Dennis anyone?

 

[covcity4life]

Well clearly we can't prove who is right or wrong so it's a pretty futile argument.

I just think it's absolutely mad to suggest that Sheaf would be resigned to the bench for the season.

Let me put it another way, do you think Allen and Eccles are better than Sheaf?

Oh I thought it was you who was saying sheaf wouldn't have played much? Sorry bro I liked the wrong guys post

Sheaf may have been back up but he was the first backup for sure

 

[David O'Day]

Emanuel Dennis anyone?

Wasn't he in Neighbours?

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Ethan Brooks (23) south african CM could be a promising backup

 

[pusbccfc]

He isn't worth it

Quite nice agreeing with each other today David

Back up to someone who has missed a handful of games in 10 years.

 

[Perennial Lurker]

Back up to someone who has missed a handful of games in 10 years.

And started in recent cup games

He's a troll who doesn't go city games. I have ignored him for ages but had to snap at him today as the prick was talking about he like he fucking knows anything about me.

you must be taking the ducking piss. he plays in the south african league for christ sake

 

[covcity4life]

I see both sides. I can understand why we sold him but it is a risk

I am sure we will look for targets in next window

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

If we’re feeling extra nostalgic Gerard Deulofeu, streets wont forget. Not played since 22/23 season

 

[Ccfcisparks]

i literally do go to city games so not a clue what you are on about you fool

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

He’s listed as a free agent on transfermarkt was just scrolling through the list

 

[Perennial Lurker]

Blueskiesforever will be all over him like a rash

 

[David O'Day]

Yeah, I have said I loved Sheaf and all he did for the club but the deal was one that we couldn't turn down and if that leaves us with Eccles and Allen as back up for 3 months until Jan then so be it.

Like I said earlier . It's seemed all window we have had to lose one "big name " , I'm glad we've kept MvE over Sheaf personally

 

[mrfr]

Who did? @mrfr said earlier Obikwu was going to be announced then said before anyone else including Andy turner that rapha was off to loads of laughing emojis and then he called the squad number.

He also said yearn, broad and sandiford were signing for the youth last year

I look forward to my ITK sash arriving in the post.

It's good in one respect but ironically it's one of the positions we've forward planned for. Selling Sheaf looks a bit desperate now and leaves us short of the quality we need in midfield. We are still short at right and left wing.

I'm not delighted by the end of the window but it is far from as terminal as some would have it

not according to the happy clappers

Lampard might call his best mate Willian tomorrow

Yes but hardly what Doug sells when he hikes ticket prices every season
