Gut feel is we’ll get Joe Worrall on loan next season now.

I’ve just seen the sending off this morning and came to this thread to post exactly the same. Appalling all round from the PGMOL cabal.

Ideally I’d be wanting us to be looking at players aged 22 or below to come in and compete for a place. Gives us a bit of succession planning. You almost need those that come good to still have a bit of development opportunity in them to command the higher prices when they turn 24-25. Easier...

Hearing reports that he’s just jumped for a header he will be competing for in the 12th minute of the game.

Yeah I’d probably agree with that. Simms I’d say is a bang average finisher (that’s not a bad indictment) whereas Cannon is slightly above average.

It’s not so much that penalties ‘don’t count’ but that it skews the goals figure if you’re comparing a penalty taker vs a non-penalty taker. Also theoretically Cannon may have been stood in the centre circle when each penalty was awarded so hasn’t done anything to contribute to the chance. I do...

The one thing I’ll point out is that the coach should probably be stopping that happening after 4 or 5. Change it into a different learning experience - stemming the flow of goals.

Fucking hell.

I have him down as a Kasey Palmer type. Capable of the sublime but can’t be arsed most of the time.

Twice there Rudoni needs to hold onto it and head to the corner.

If the shot was taken by a literally bang average finisher it would go in 98 times out of 100.

Nah can’t see us winning 4-0.

Mind and senses purified Edit: fucks sake, teaches me to not refresh the page!

Settling down for an early night only for the little one to start coughing that much he eventually makes himself sick in the cot and you have to bath him. Cheers mate.

Know a couple of Leicester fans that were delighted to see the back of Cooper. It’s weird as whilst the football wasn’t attractive they were picking up points.

Wouldn’t even call it top end championship recruitment. Lot of very average signings. Chong, Barkley and Ogbene probably the exceptions.

If we’re playing 2 strikers then we won’t be playing with wide forwards as well, so the Wright point is moot. If one of the remaining two got injured then we flip to the box midfield for a game or two. It’s really not an issue.

Agree on the criticism point. I just think his skillset has basically been matched by Bassette. If we’d signed Bassette first then BTA probably wouldn’t be here. As it is, it happened the other way round. I don’t dislike him; I just don’t see any need for him when the fee + wages could be better...

Appreciate there’s half the window to go, but I’m becoming pretty disillusioned with it all. Moving on Lati and BTA would have been a really good start, especially for the fees mooted. If we have doubts over replacing them then do our recruitment team only plan a week ahead?

Aware this wasn’t directed at me, but given my opinion is the same I’ll respond to each of the points: 1. I don’t see full back as a position I’m particularly arsed about experience. I also don’t think his experience makes up for his lack of ability which I think is massively over-egged. 2...
