I think its more to do with Brau can play as a winger when we have no current cover for Mason Clark
I think its more to do with Brau can play as a winger when we have no current cover for Mason ClarkI forgot about Brau TBF. That’s three which is only one less than the Sisu summer. The fact Bidwell and Dasilva are starting ahead of him isn’t a great sign though.
Wright is hot and cold, the other 2 are basically stored in a deep freeze.I will be surprised if we get promoted with our current front 3 or Simms, Wright and BTA. all are way too hot or cold and we can't afford to have so many 'off days' from all 3.
We’ve made a top 5 squad stronger, our goals come from all over, admit another forward might help but we’ll still be ok, it was at the back we needed to improve and looks like we haveI will be surprised if we get promoted with our current front 3 or Simms, Wright and BTA. all are way too hot or cold and we can't afford to have so many 'off days' from all 3.
No chance of 3 Marquee signings.We need 2/3 marquee signings and then I think we’re pretty set to be honest
There was the change from u23 to u21 to take into account. Perhaps the idea was to create more mobility for players re loans I don't know.I think we always have to take into account how much we have progressed over the years. MR put a lot of groundwork into the building of the U21s team and at that time we were Div 2 and 1 and to be fair those lads were very suitable for that level. It's only now, we are top 10 championship club we see our youngsters are not up to the required level, basically we have outgrown them and that's why when they leave us they join Northampton.
Marquee doesn’t always mean significant spendNo chance of 3 Marquee signings.
Only if we sell at least 1 player for a large sum. Think we will get a new CB, and then possibly a forward who can play across the top. Will potentially need a second RB too.No chance of 3 Marquee signings.
None of the players were playing for Robins in the end and I think he (Wright) was probably carrying his ligament problem when he came backWright is hot and cold, the other 2 are basically stored in a deep freeze.

What’s ur first statement based on?None of the players were playing for Robins in the end and I think he was probably carrying his ligament problem when he came back
Yes he has, but his first job is to get off to a good start. That's how King will judge him and he stated he was brought in last season because Robins start was poor again.He’s been brought in to get us out of this league, he won’t be content with a few positions and he’ll be aware of it and sorting it
My perception. From Stoke away when they failed to turn up on opening day, to the roll-over Leeds and then Derby....What’s ur first statement based on?
OK so theres no evidence. got it.My perception. From Stoke away when they failed to turn up on opening day, to the roll-over Leeds and then Derby....
I mean the difference in being 17th and then going on a club record run of wins is arguably proof of it.What’s ur first statement based on?
I'd have sacked Robins after Leeds in retrospect. I think he was lucky to be given a chance to reconstruct the coaching staff on the hoof.OK so theres no evidence. got it.
So towards the end of the season when we were struggling to win were the players not playing for Lampard then?I mean the difference in being 17th and then going on a club record run of wins is arguably proof of it.
Inconsistent? YesSo towards the end of the season when we were struggling to win were the players not playing for Lampard then?
We've brought in a very good defender and sold a reserve defender. We've brought in a very good GK that we were desperate for last season. He looks even better than Dovin. The saves he made were top class. I can't see him letting in 2 goals from 2 average shots like we were getting last season.We're standing still at best while others improve.
As it stands I wouldn't bet on top 6.
Not really - generally the side was fine. They had the games where they struggled against teams they couldn’t break down - and were massively unlucky against Sunderland.So towards the end of the season when we were struggling to win were the players not playing for Lampard then
Which coincided with the signing of Grimes.I mean the difference in being 17th and then going on a club record run of wins is arguably proof of it.
304 pages and just warming up304 pages. Do we get to 350 before the season starts? We might need another Udogie-style rumour to get us there.
I wonder how much Udogie would be in this window?304 pages. Do we get to 350 before the season starts? We might need another Udogie-style rumour to get us there.
Dasilva has a really good end to the season. Also, I’m more concerned about the quality of players we bring in, not “how many”. There’s ages left anyway, I’m sure there’s plenty of stuff in hand we don’t know about because all our ITKs have been put on garden leave.
I think they should be judged on quality rather than quantity. Considering the summer you're on about, the marquee incoming was Kasey Palmer, I think we're OK.
Still time mate, reckon we see another 3 at least.
You've got to think that the wage bill won't be allowed to increase too much on last season. That might imply that a higher earner or two may still leave...
We've already replaced MvE tbf. I don't see KKH as much of a downgrade, if at all.The point about quantity is that it’s very difficult to argue Lampard just wants less turnover than every CCFC manager ever in his first summer. Which implies the problem is the funds. Very early still, I just worry we’re relying on a huge bid for MvE or Wright going and the former doesn’t seem to be appearing and the latter can’t happen until the season starts. And to be honest I’m still getting over us losing Gus late and not replacing.

I'm choosing to take the opinion we're after a better standard of player so it's harder to get done.
I guess we'll find out soon, I would like to see at least 1 this week tbf.
