We’ve got a lot on mystic megs (who also like to use a bit hindsight) on this forum, the same people who were predicting one of the big three going and nothing reinvested, are now moaning about where we might be after a few more games and potential valuations of players at Christmas and next...

Whole range of reasons from injuries to unrealistic wages to maybe holding on for someone who didn’t come in for them. I agree that if anyone is signed they’re likely to take some time to get up to speed though. Panzo and Doyle were brought in so you’d hope will step up. I thought Doyle looked...

Agreed. If anyone had offered me that at the start of the window I’d have taken it. If someone had come in with a big offer for a player which allowed reinvestment great but from early on many were saying one of the big three was going and nothing to be reinvested apart from wages. We didn’t...

I think it changed from he was undervalued and we shouldn’t sell our best players, to he’s overvalued and we should’ve sold him and reinvested…sometime lateish July

Wonder if they’d loan him out 🤔

I get that but people need a bit of perspective, seasons only just started and half of the negative rants are about stuff that’s not even happened yet If people want pure sustained enjoyment they may as well support Man City as you’ll never get that here. A good old fashioned emotional...

Saudis generosity hopefully

Quality player. In my most optimistic mind I wondered if we could get him if Ohare left…not at that price obviously Forest have bought a whole squads worth of players 20+. Crazy

If* we don’t lose any first teamers I think most would’ve snapped your hand off for that at the start of the window *a big IF

Yeah, that what’s I was saying walker, waghorn and Kane, all big salaries and us trying to bomb them out after a year.

I thought lower prem or yo yo championship teams would be in for both. Plenty of premier league clubs pay those figures for squad players

It’s more the fact that within a year Robins didn’t seem to fancy him (or the others). We can’t afford to do that with players on championship wages

Think that’s a bit harsh. We know bids came in for Ohare around 5m+, reckon probably similar but a bit less for Hamer and we also know Viks going to be worth a lot more than we bought him for. If they’re fit and playing well their values shouldn’t drop much….if they’re injured or playing shit...

Some fair points here and something I was thinking about the other day with regard to wages for Waghorn, Kane and Walker, all of which appeared totally out of favour with Robins…although Waghorn maybe back in now Giving new contracts to Hamer and Ohare to protect their value was sensible...

He wasn’t having a go at fans. It was more tense and he said the players need to block that out.

Im not defending team selection. Strange

Not read thread but first half I thought started ok but then the pace/intensity dropped off and probably lucky not to go in one down. Second half was a lot better, greater intensity/urgency and didn’t deserve to lose. Liked the look of Palmer and Doyle, thought hamer livened up midfield when he...

He wasn’t blaming the fans. He was suggesting that you could sense a nervousness/edge and frustration in the air and the players need to block that out. He’s annoyance was about the pitch situation.

It’s not your fault how it panned out Pete and of course it’s still worth doing. You might need to reach out and have a chat with the others before the next meeting/call though, so everyone is on the same page and is focused on key points…rather than rants Hopefully the next one will be more...

I wonder if this is following on from covid where rebates etc might’ve been due. Otherwise, as you say, just doesn’t make sense
