New 8, new replacement for Ohare / Allen and Simms in for Godden …. then some pace off the bench

No one believes the fitness line though do they it’s simply an agreed line with his agent to deflect questions he doesn’t want to answer.

If it had been career ending his insurance would have paid out. In any other walk of life if a company stands by an employee when they are unable to do their job for a year then it would be reasonable to expect that employee to show some gratitude and loyalty back. Thus he owes nothing...

He doesn’t want to stay

We want to build the foundations of a team we own so that next summer we don’t have to have wholesales changes but a few additions to continue to improve us Ohare won’t be here next season. I wouldn’t start him, but I’d have him on the bench. His agent and him want to use us to pay him to get...

The same Burroughs who isn’t holding down his preferred position at his loan club ? 🙄

Slow to catch up … Godden has been anonymous for months. The end of last season and most of this. Still a good finisher but a passenger outside of that.

We have to plan for life without Ohare so he is a red herring. Ayari isn’t yet good enough so that rules him out too. Which leaves just Palmer as a central creative player and his injury track record shows he can’t be relied upon. At the moment Tats is the only player who genuinely creates...

I agree but only on the basis that we bought so many in the summer. The true criteria is of course do we look secure at the back ? Do we need strengthening ? On that basis you would say we do need another central defender.

Alan Nixon Coventry City have joined the chase for Hammarby’s Ghanaian centre half Nathaniel Adeiji. Mark Robins has funds for a signing and would like a buy which gives him the edge on rivals Preston. Adeiji will cost a hefty fee but Coventry hope to make an offer that gives his...

A really good post and well argued. This type of bias does exist and indeed I used to get frustrated when we appeared on TV and commentators would refer to Biamou’s pace likely to cause the oppositions defence a problem. Max was not blessed with pace. The situation is improving but whilst...

Whose money were we using before the Vik transfer then ? City is a loss making business.

“You worry Rob, but don’t make the rest of us worry “

Wrights pace alone offers more than Godden …. Despite Robins arguing otherwise neither player link the play up … but having Wrights pace forces defences to defend deeper against us. Last year we had Vik doing the same and our midfield could exploit that space in midfield, this year our midfield...

I don’t miss Shipley at all. Nice guy, bang average lg1 mudfielder at best.

Leicester play with 3 at the back with the ball and 4 out of possession. my frustration with our system is that we stick yo 3 central defenders even when the opposition play one up top. why ? You have to assume Robins doesn’t trust 2 of them to cope.

I tend to agree. I think the only issue for OHare and his agent is his recent injury. If he decides not to sign for us or anyone else in Jan and then his knee goes in April he will have zero income for 12 months and 2 bad injuries in 3 years will put many off when he goes return ….. …… it’s a...

No chance

We didn’t create much but it’s fair to say that Wright should have had 2 and Allen 1.
