Shock, horror! Seemingly GIMOC isn’t regarded as a credible rumour-monger! 😆

Yes but only for the political wing of the Sky Blues. Apparently with only Brau, Haji and EMC we are short of left-wingers. 😆

Absolutely 👍 We put in a decent performance and with a fit and firing Haji - or a bit more luck when MVE hit the woodwork with the goalkeeper beaten - we would probably have won. We all know that we ideally need another two or three players but if we don’t lose any of our top performers -...

I think our squad is competitive and we will, at least, be battling for a place in the play-offs. When we came up from League 1 I thought we would find it a real battle to stay up. To be where we are now so quickly was almost beyond my wildest dreams. PUSB

I tend to agree with those who think that Haji is better on the left but it’s important to look at the overall picture. With him at LW we have to play BTA or Simms in the middle, which few of us are encouraged by. If we play Haji as a central forward we have EMC on the left, which I think is...

He was on the bench on Saturday (played 20 minutes) so I assume from this that he will start for them tonight:

FL has been speaking about him in more positive terms lately, so this is a good opportunity to give him 45+ minutes. He's the only proper cover/competition we have for Saka, so it would be great for us if he can prove he's good enough to step up to that role. It could potentially save us a...

If we are serious about getting Charlie Hughes then I can’t see us signing Lamine Fanne - or anyone else unless they are cheap or a loan - without selling MVE.

We clearly both agree on Rushworth’s importance to us, which is why I would rest him tonight. I’m terrified of him getting injured and having to play Wilson or Collins for a run of league matches. In a competitive division that could cost us a shot at promotion.

Neither Brighton nor Swansea thought much of Gykores - and he wasn’t great when he first came to us - so it will be interesting to see how Bassette’s career turns out. I hope we take a good sell-on percentage just in case he ends up going to Manchester City for £100 million in a couple of years. 😆

Clearly neither of us knows what he will do. All I can say is that, if it was my decision, I would play Wilson to (a) save Rushworth from getting injured in a match which - for me - is of lesser importance and (b) give him a chance of getting a bit of match sharpness in case Rushworth does...

I accept that he can't keep it up for a run of games - which is the main reason I suggested keeping him as a squad player - but I think it is stretching it to say he can't do successive games, especially if we don't play midweek. He gives us something different in midfield, where none of our...

I quite like Allen, certainly as a squad player. He has some energy but unlike some of our other energetic players, such as BTA and Bassette, there is some purpose to his play.

He's world class isn't he? 😊

I feel very sorry for Ben Sheaf. He is a very fine player at Championship level but sadly he has become injury-prone over the past couple of years. I don't think he keeps getting the same injury recurring but suffers from a series of middling injuries that have a habit of keeping him out for...

Get him now! As signings go this one is a banker 👍

Fair enough. I wasn’t aware he was injured badly enough to be out for Tuesday. It was a bit of a long shot anyway.

I would be happy with that. I’d prefer not to risk Grimes but with Sheaf and Eccles out we are thin on the ground for that slot. I suppose we could try Lati.
