No. Assume that clause will be put in the deal - even if it's known that we're signing him permanently.

I'm over this now. I bet he's shit.

I was always higher on Lameiras than most. Went to the 4-0 win over Millwall in 2015 where we basically played a fluid front 3 of Maddison-Armstrong-Lameiras and it was the best football I'd seen from Coventry City in years. Lameiras' through ball for Arma's second will always leave me truly...

I don't really care what the formation is tbh, I just want us to play decent football that doesn't involve hopeless punts forward from defence or "hitting the channels".

This is it. Even when John Terry signed permanently for the Villa, he'd still go back to Chelsea's training ground once a week to use their cryotherapy and recovery stuff.

Coventry City playing 4-4-2 brings back horrible memories of the McIndoe - Doyle - S.Hughes - Bell midfield. Just thinking about the awful football we played in this period sends shivers down my spine.

Friend at work who's a Reading fan is not impressed. Said he hasn't really done anything and we can have him back lol

I'd consider moving Shipley into CM until Kelly gets back. We know he'll scrap and work hard, and would also give us a better passer in the middle.

Crazy that Burnley spent £5million on Wells a year ago and he's going to play more for the U23s this year than the first team.

Front three of Jodi - JCH - Allassani for the U23s today. That could easily be the first team's forward line a couple months time. Looking forward to seeing what they can do.

Everyone assumed he was going to set the league on fire and be the new Cyrus Christie bombing down the right side. We forgot he's an 18-year-old playing his very first professional games. I honestly think that Grimmer wouldn't have done much better.

Dion Kelly-Evans has found a new team, Kettering Town. He's going up against Ivor Lawton's Halesowen Town today.

It's worth considering that when he played his best football in Scotland, Andreu actually was a striker in a two-man partnership. I'd be more than happy to play him up front in a 4-4-2 with Hiwula making runs for him to find. Something like this... Burge Grimmer - Davies - Willis - Brown...

100% this ends with one of them demanding to leave and it's either going to be JCH or Ponti

But then we have another problem...5 strikers eyeing up that 1 position at the top of the formation. So Hiwula is out wide, Bakayoko needs to play so his transfer fee is justified, Biamou helped us get promoted, Ponticelli is a real prospect and JCH is no doubt on a decent wage. So Robins...

This is my big worry. Not that we're implementing a new formation and we're going to struggle for a while as we get used to it, but that there is no set formation and we're throwing shit at the wall to see what sticks. It honestly looks like Robins is just waiting until Jodi is back so we can...

Very poor performance. No answer to Leeds' high press and passing play. Outplayed and outcoached.

Very obvious fake account

Not really. Talking about new things they looked to do, 4-2-3-1 was one of them, and that he (Viveash) is much more comfortable with the formation than Robins - who had to build up some trust in it and see it for himself.
