Yo know me sparky got to find a random player who we’ll never even think about for shits and gigsWho is paying £500k for Bidwell.
Is johnsen your flavour of the day
As it stand out first 11 could be
Wilson
Ewijk Thomas Kitching Brau
Sheaf Grimes
Rudoni
Saka Wright Mason-Clarke
When you write it down that’s a promotion 11
Well maybe they reckon he does have a chance to make it then?...Maybe he just fancies himself as a model... Maybe he just wants to make himself available so people think he's making an effort, could be any reason who the fuck knows.Id imagine most of the players were available.
The point im trying to make is, if we are unsure if he will make it, why are we making him the main media man. It is odd.
Add in Dovin (or the new loan keeper) and KKH at LB and its the strongest XI on paper for over a quarter of century for my money.That team finishes between 5th-9th (depending on luck) like the last 3 seasons. Unless Lampard has worked wonders in pre-season the side still struggles against low-blocks, concedes silly goals & can't compete with the big boys so won't be favourites for the play-offs
Do we underestimate just how desperate Frank Lampard was for a job?That Sheaf link looks standard X BS - wouldn't give much attention.
Hes just joined my local golf club, and moved in this area so not sure if that suggests hes happy to stay put.
A fully fit Sheaf is game changer, dont believe he was ever fit last year. Remember this time last year, we were demanding £20m for him!
Still fully believe there is load going on behind scenes, Lampard will not just accept status quo, nor should he. We have to evolve, albeit within our means.
I'd always keep Eccles and Lati as squad players.Both Eccles and Lati have played outside their primary position a handful of times over the last 2 seasons.
Eccles is a solid player who’d start for every team outside the Top 8 comfortably. On Lati, it’s telling that he started off first choice for Robins and Lampard to end up losing that starting berth. As a CB (particularly in a 2), he’s just not that good imo. He was pretty unconvincing whenever he’s played CM and at RB he was limited, particularly going forward.
Rudoni and Haji are examples of a players who cover multiple positions and make an impact on the game. Heck, Rudoni has played RW, LW, CM and even LWB outside his primary position.
it does if it doesn't have an awful first 1/4 of the seasonThat’s almost the same XI that didn’t go up last year so I don’t see it going better this year.
Of course you can. Why haven't they got Obikwu doing it then
That’s almost the same XI that didn’t go up last year so I don’t see it going better this year.
Entirely corrected by a completely unprecedented winning run that won’t happen again either.it does if it doesn't have an awful first 1/4 of the season
But thats just it, nobody knows unless you have some inside info?we're not making half a dozen signings in this transfer window as i've said for ages
Can we please stop putting KKH at left back and writing off Brau?
From what has been mentioned previously Brau was a signing we were going to make even if we got promoted, that alone suggests he's fairly decent
Might indicate the clubs have been in talks. Could also just be nonsense (although it feels very particular and Viera would know Sheaf from his Arsenal days).Do we think it just a coincidence that Sheaf has today been linked with Genoa when we are supposedly interested in their Seydou Fini?
You might want to keep them. Would they be willing to stay if they were pushed further down the pecking order? It’s apparent that both players want to be starters.I'd always keep Eccles and Lati as squad players.
In the Championship top players are not going to be happy warming the bench, so you just have to accept that squad players are inferior. The only argument is just how inferior?
Da Silva, Lati and Eccles make the cut, Collins and Wilson don't. Buying specifically squad players could well be the toughest job of all in the transfer market so it is better if they are like Eccles - previously first choice but now downgraded..
Wishlist:
Collins (Free) -> Carl Rushworth (Loan)
Binks (£1m) -> Eiran Cashin (Loan)

Raphael (loan)
Obikwu (loan)
Perry (loan)
Daush (loan)
other ins:
Bertaccini (£6m)
But thats just it, nobody knows unless you have some inside info?
I smell the potential of a part ex deal?
Vieira hasn’t been at arsenal in 20 yearsMight indicate the clubs have been in talks. Could also just be nonsense (although it feels very particular and Viera would know Sheaf from his Arsenal days
The same was said about Haji Wright and when he’s fully fit and firing, he’s a league leading player in his positions.Can we please stop putting KKH at left back and writing off Brau?
From what has been mentioned previously Brau was a signing we were going to make even if we got promoted, that alone suggests he's fairly decent
My apologies thought he did some coaching there but was Man CityVieira hasn’t been at arsenal in 20 years
