    O'Hare bids

    of course. Pay some debts. Pay some interest. Invest the rest.

    Who else?

    The difference is we have way more quality, and a squad that has a good team spirit

    Who else?

    ah, the age old 'can't be arsed' argument...'we need players with passion' rubbish that's spouted on CWR after every defeat

    Transfer Shouts

    Would hazard a guess that some of the ITKs are less ITK following some of this summer's departures

    Transfer Shouts

    you got it - selling hamer and gyokeres to pay for a new training pitch and to give sisu a return.....all of which wasnt explained to Robins 6 weeks ago when he signed his new contract and talked about an exciting future.

    Transfer Shouts

    So you're saying that Robins signed a contract at the end of the season and was then completely blindsided by the fact that the club all of sudden wanted to sell the best players without any of those funds going into rebuilding? Seems an odd thing to sign up to. Even odder given the financial...

    Transfer Shouts

    What are you talking about? We want to keep our best players, if valuations are met that's different but we'll have contingencies (as we always have), we want more quality, we have until Sept 1st to get things in place....not sure what's so depressing. Stop the guesswork. Trust in the process -...

    Transfer Shouts

    One of the problems last season was options off the bench. Don;t see any need to panic - manager signed a new contract, assuming that included talks around financial planning moving forward. Brought one in who is an upgrade on those who have moved out.

    Retained list

    you should. Recruitment overall has had far more pluses than minuses. The league position shows that. We've always rotated during the summer window to try to upgrade again - last year it was Moore, Maatsen, Clarke-Salter, Sheaf (permanent), Gyokeres (permanent), Waghorn. I personally think the...

    3 Areas to improve next season

    1. Goals from midfield - Allen's output in terms of assists and goals isn't where it should be given a relatively free role going forward (in some games at least) 2. Defensive lapses - we concede soft goals. Set pieces are a concern. We obviously look better when the first choice 3 CBs are...

    Who and Why ?

    I could see Hamer going to Brighton if Bissouma is sold. Would be a big step up but development potential for them for sure. And I can see Smith at Norwich coming in for O'Hare (and Davis from Villa). Have to hope that a decent % of any fee received is reinvested in both transfer fees (younger...

    Martyn Waghorn

    I think his dropping off gives both Gyokeres more space behind and O'Hare more space in the pocket since Waghorn engages the opposing midfield. Gyokeres gone off the boil since he's been out - O'Hare less effective also. Poorer form all round.

    Martyn Waghorn

    ah - so you have to play 90 minutes to be counted? Makes sense

    Martyn Waghorn

    And yet our form dropping off has coincided with him being absent :censored:

    We need the left sided centre half back....provides more balance and the option to push rose over to the right side. Also think we're missing waghorn - he drops and retains the ball and gives O'Hare more space. That said I didn't think they were that much better - key moments went their way and...

    Martin Cranie

    How so? Senior player upgrades? A couple of loan signings LWB and CB? And ideally a CM (although James didn't join until mid-season). Struggling to see how we've veered way off course tbh. Oh, and we still have all of the younger players from the year before. The market has changed too. Just...

    And we still have most of those players. Now building up the squad. Said it before: - Moore > Marosi - Waghorn > Biamou Plus the benefit a full season in the Championship will have on O'Hare, Walker, Sheaf, Hamer. We are short in three positions - LWB (Maatsen), CB (Crainie plus one more) and...
