Because his wages and transfer fee would be a non-trivial amount and I would rather that every available £ (and squad position) go towards a player we are more confident can perform to the required standard in the PL.

As explained above, it’s not just about strengthening our position, it’s about making sure you don’t do so in a way that limits what you can do in the summer. Loaning someone like Esse clearly doesn’t. Signing someone like Dan Neil probably would. I happily admit there’s an element of risk to...

Grimes has been superb this season and I want to see him play every minute of every remaining game this season if possible - I imagine Lampard agrees. If he’s not able to do that then we do indeed have a problem, but that is not a problem we are able to solve by signing a Grimes-level...

The vitriol that this one opinion of mine inspires is really quite something

Pretty insane climbdown here, honestly didn’t think you’d cave this fast

We’ve already had one user aggressively soil themselves trying to prove this theory, I don’t want you to embarrass yourself too

I asked you to show your working, not throw your toys out the pram.

Quite telling that you seem to be suggesting that any and all points dropped can be explained away and/or prevented by just signing more players. Top analysis 👍

We are not going to rotate Grimes out of the side at this stage of the season, and especially not just because we're worried he might get injured.

Have you seen the Championship table in the last five months?

What's the evidence that they do - newspaper/ITK rumours? Anything more concrete than that? I don't think the club share the view that if we don't get someone in then we're doomed to miss out on promotion

Yes it is actually no longer possible for us to have anymore injuries and suspensions this season, that's why I've been arguing this all along

We had a series of injuries, illnesses and suspensions coupled with a string of some of the hardest games of the season and a couple of rivals hitting form. We signed two new players in positions where we had literally no cover, and now all those injured and suspended players are back. Through...

Yes, what agony it was

We've suffered this season?

Appreciate the sarcasm but the idea of anyone being “doom and gloom” at this specific moment of being a Coventry fan right now is hilarious

I think that’s a very different statement from saying he’s not capable.

There is an extremely high chance that it is, in fact, good enough. We shall see at the end of the season. Are we no longer classing Jake Bidwell or Josh Eccles as capable players now?
