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.

Yes

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.

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.

What does that mean? Edit: the shit golf pun caught me out… I’m hoping that the signings we’ve made have shown Hamer we’re ambitious and he can become a premier league player sooner rather than later at this club.

Godden featuring a lot! Thought we’d have seen Hamer a bit more! It’s nice that we’re seen as one of the big boys again! I seriously think that by the end of the window, we’ll be in a position to really challenge for even the automatics! Perhaps I’m getting a bit too excited here…

We’ve announced some signings late in the evening this preseason… Bobby Thomas was announced at 2100-ish on a Saturday!

It’s tiresome when the announcement picture(s) have already been leaked by a guy hiding in the bush…

A happy coincidence but he’s been bought in because he looks like a quality player.

CAM I’m happy with Palmer, Sakamoto, Allen and COH to come back. CM needs strengthening imo. Yes Hamer and Sheaf are an excellent partnership and Eccles and Kelly have proven they can fill in. But, we lose too if either Sheaf/Hamer are injured or suspended. At least a loanee perhaps - we’ve...
