It’s pick your poison time though. Godden - lacks the physical attributes to play as a lone striker at this level. Simms - reasons you mentioned Wright- looks disinterested One of them has to start. Simms makes the most sense to me.

Eccles gets a free pass from so many on here. Sheaf, Kelly and even Allen have looked better in the holding role.

That’s too much change. Plus can’t see Callum starting. We could be 3 down vs WBA by the time everyone works out what their new position is.

I don’t think 5212 doesn’t work full stop but it’s certainly not working now. My thinking is more that we seem incapable of playing good football and dominating, so let’s go back to basics, be hard to beat and try to grind out some results.

After last night I wouldn’t be opposed to going back to the box, tell them to sit in and be hard to beat and try to hit teams on the break again. O’Hare and Sakamoto were probably the only players that looked decent yesterday.

We made a profit on Chaplin.

Not at all, I’m saying it wasn’t a mistake to spend.

…and our outgoing transfer fees will also be paid in instalments?

the bedding in time has long since passed 13 games in? hahahahahaha

SBT users when they point out a striker with 2 goals in 13 games isn’t worth £8m

You should get a job at airfix the amount you bang on about models. See my previous comment. Our model hasn’t changed, we’ve always spent what we can but recently that has increased.

My point is we’ve not had a policy of keeping spending low, we’ve always spent what we can. And this summer that rapidly increased so if anything our approach has remained the same.

Revisionism about Gyokeres, general consensus was he looked bang average. Agreed on Hamer but he had issues other than talent that needed sorting.

“Low” fees is relative. £1m+ for Vik was pretty high for a player with 3 goals in 30 championship appearances. £1.5m on Hamer was a massive fee for us at the time, biggest for 10-15 years?

Exactly, and I think most would agree the amount we spent is not the issue, it’s the players we spent it on who (currently) aren’t performing.

When we received 30+? If we want to progress then we need to spend. Could be on playing staff, support staff or facilities but money in a bank account somewhere is not helping us at all.

It’s genuinely not, he thinks we shouldn’t have spent the money.

One of the best records of all time

But why not spend more? I don’t think the spending is the problem, it’s the players we’ve spent it on.
