    21/22 Summer transfer mega-thread

    Because we pulled the WBs back to fullback and stuffed the midfield with defensive players. Not because our defence suddenly worked out how to not concede goals. Constantly bringing up Biamou, or even worse Bakayoko, when Walker and Godden were out and are now back is just disingenuous. The...

    Im not wound up. I just disagree with you. We played most of last season without our two main strikers. This place was full of people saying how once we got them back we looked much better.

    21/22 Summer transfer mega-thread

    I don’t know how much you watched is last season but we had to basically forgo any attacking intent to stop leaking goals. At times playing with five across the back, three DMs and the leagues most defensive AM. We also had to completely give up playing out from the back. There’s more to...

    And we were 21st in xG. Which suggests we scored more than we should’ve given the chances we created. Which suggests the strikers weren’t the issue.

    We’ll see, but unless we’re about to pull something very surprising out the bag we seem over stocked in attack and massively under stocked everywhere else.

    We didn’t create any chances. Because our defence and midfield were poor on the ball and out GK couldn’t command his box so we got dragged back to the 18 yard line half the games. Walker and Godden both put away the chances they actually got. Isolating a different set of strikers ain’t going to...

    I guess we’ll know when we either do or don’t sign someone else.

    Solid point. Well argued.

    He probably thinks all those wind turbines work like fans. The guy gives stupid a new meaning, sat in government calling the LOTO the policy making elite. Forget economics, the worst thing about Brexit was making these absolute chumps elected officials.

    You, @mr_monkey and @Ccfcisparks pop up every time anyone says anything short of “isn’t our transfer window going swimmingly”. It’s tiring. Im no fan of Biamou, but I’d rather him on the bench than Drysdale, Reid or a 17 year old kid. I’ve explained myself over and over and the constant either...

    Good job literally no one is saying that then.

    21/22 Summer transfer mega-thread

    We can do this every time these rumours pop up and the actual deals were making seem to back it up. Or we can live in constant lala land where any minute now we’re going to sign someone. The people arguing here have so far gone from “they haven’t come back from training yet” to “the media staff...

    He played six less than Waghorn last season. You’re missing the point in your desperation to defend the club at all costs. Even if we needed two strikers, we’ve clearly overspent on them because we can’t afford to sign quality or depth anywhere else in the side.

    I think both Walker and Godden would get you the same. Walker got 8 in a team that created virtually no chances while he was injured or ill for half the season.

    Sure. Robins never played the box midfield until everyone was injured. 🙄

    I wanted to sign a different keeper yeah. What’s that got to do with the point other than you lose your shit when anyone suggests everything might not be perfect? Back your point up or shit the fuck up. Laughing emojis aren’t an argument.

    And as it stands we have Drysdale as backup at CB, Howley as backup CM and Reid as backup LWB while our top scorer and big investment last season sits on the bench. Also we regularly play with 1 ST and can’t play with less than 3 CBs or without a LWB or CM. From a squad planning POV it’s nuts.

    Who are the 6 though? Sheaf we signed last summer. Moore, Bright, Maatsen all have a distinct “Plan B” feel about them. Györkeres and Waghorn seem OK but we had Walker and Godden already and weren’t crying out for strikers like we were CBs. We’ve tried an failed to get Walsh, James, Patterson...
