    Transfer targets

    I’ll be more frank. I don’t think we can trust Godden to bury chances in the way we could in our first Championship years. That was the one thing no one could dispute about Godden. It could just be confidence or he’s deteriorating as a player. If it is true that we want another striker, then...

    The nature of the game was quite back and forth. We created more ‘big chances’ despite our lack of possession. There’s going to space in those kind of games. In the second half of games, fatigue becomes more of a factor. Robins highlighted that Leicester’s style of play worn us down - hence...

    Eccles didn’t keep their winger quiet. There was a couple of moments Maviddi skipped down our right hand side and Thomas was doing a lot of covering work. That change was more tactical, as we were pushing forward, there was more space down the flanks to attack. Whereas, in the first half, we...

    Team for Wednesday

    This game is a great opportunity to build fitness for the squad, particularly the new signings. Collins Thomas Lati Binks MVE Kelly Eccles Bidwell Sakamoto Wright Simms/Palmer I’d either play Simms to build the relationship with Wright or build Palmer’s fitness using the box formation with...

    Hamer

    To add on to your point, the signings we’ve made that cost money have largely been successful. We’ve gone from being a L1 side, Championship relegation battle to competing at the top table of the league. Some players are going to become surplus to requirements as our goals get loftier.

    Subs

    Losing Hamer was the difference. If you take him out of our team we really struggle to play the way we want. I'm not sure Eccles staying at CM would've changed much materially. I imagine people would be questioning why Kelly wasn't brought on to protect a lead in. Simms was probably taken off...

    Transfer Rumour Haji Wright

    Looked a real handful today and a great first impression!

    Godden’s finishing seems to have massively deteriorated. Personally do not trust him to finish chances and we should consider getting rid to be honest.

    The service for our strikers has not been great. Godden and Simms do not appear to be strikers who can fashion chances themselves. Wright will be an important addition if his style of play is similar to Gyokeres.

    Hadji Wright and MVE on as soon as we can. The game needs their directness. Might be worth playing 5-3-2 to mitigate Leicester’s midfield dominance. MVE for Palmer or Eccles at this point.

    We haven’t been great, but for all of Sky’s insistence of Leicester’s ‘dominance’ - they only have a few tame efforts to show for it. Have all the possession you want. We’re well equipped to deal with it defensively.

    Nah, he’s unproven at Championship level, therefore can’t be good.

    Most impressed with Bobby Thomas so far! He’s been v good - snuffing out plenty of attacks and comfortable on the ball.

    Both teams will start slow today but I’m backing out subs to come in and make an impact to win us the game! I’m bed ridden with a strong variant of ‘man flu’ so a win today would be brilliant for my mood!

    Exactly, we're on the same wavelength here! That might not be obvious to a lot of fans who weren't aware of that. It's just my perception this transfer window, but the time lag between transfer confirmationsand announcements seems a lot longer than previous seasons. In my view, it's why we've...

    It was announced ‘later’ than the 12:00 deadline on Friday to be available for tomorrow. Hence the confusion amongst some people in knowing whether or not he’s available or not. Granted, that wasn’t exactly clear from my post. Hope that clears it up!

    If Wright doesn’t start, we’ll start with the box formation against Leciester. Godden doesn’t really suit us when we play direct football and against Leicester he’ll be chasing shadows out of possession. It’s a nightmare game for Godden.

    The Telegraph confirmed he’s available to play tomorrow. Everything must’ve been confirmed yesterday before the deadline and announcing it on Twitter was late, as per.

    Threat from set pieces

    With two strikers, two CBs standing at 6”3/4 strikers plus Fadz… you would hope we’re building a team that can cause more of a threat at set piece time. Thomas scored 7 goals last season, surely he’s got to get a few.
