I agree. Midfield players cover over 12kms a game and the key element in the team staff decision is managing the volumes the players cover. We need players capable of playing 46 games at a high level.I also think Torp not playing a full 90 isn't necessarily all down to his stamina but also in part down to the fact that we have got able bodied players to come on and replace him. Whatever the reason anyway, we're winning games.
If we were interested in the summer I can’t see why we won’t be nowI bring it back to Sam Rak-Sakyi who we were supposedly interested in last January. Don’t know enough about him but could potentially look at someone like that on a permanent who won’t necessarily expect to play every game but in the long term may have what it takes at PL level. It’s difficult, though.
Allen played that role in January before Grimes was signed. Eccles has the ability to play there imo. That’s not the same as saying they’re as good as Grimes btw.
If you don’t think those two are viable backups to a player with an exemplary injury record, how much do you think we should spend on a better backup? And are we ok with them sitting on the bench this season and taking up a squad place next year?
He doesn’t know the meaning of the word positive, an angry little hateful manyou do realise you are allowed to say positive things though don’t you?
I’m not next am I?
wrong threadAnother test but we keep producing the results. Nothing to fear if we play to our best and another win puts us in an exceptionally strong position .
What a time to be a City fan .
So it iswrong thread

Listening to one of the pods they were saying something similar about not needing back up for midfield or attacking mid and I was thinking we probably do we’re an experienced first teamer short in thereNot sure how I’ve made up a stat that’s available on the internet for you to verify. I literally said Torp has availability issues, as does Rudi as does Eccles hence us recently playing BTA and Allen in midfield. I swear sometimes on this site people just say shit. We’ve been talking about lack of depth in CM for months but today you’ve decided it’s all invented to annoy you. I’m done.
Is Hamer going to come begging in January, or sweat it out at the Blunts and wait until the summer?
I'd be amazed if that many came in , 1/2 maybe .Sod it after 18 min of this match I now believe it doesn't matter who slots in they become a footballing god. I love Simms but didn't think he had that up his sleeve
(Still think 3-4 will come in)
Can't see more than 2 eitherI'd be amazed if that many came in , 1/2 maybe .
Playing Ipswich twice in a month will be a big test for us.Another test but we keep producing the results. Nothing to fear if we play to our best and another win puts us in an exceptionally strong position .

In his current shape and loss of form I wouldn't go near himIs Hamer going to come begging in January, or sweat it out at the Blunts and wait until the summer?
Southampton also , can't believe how bad they've been with the talent they havePlaying Ipswich twice in a month will be a big test for us.
I can't think of many SPL signings but John Fleck was a quality signing. Michael Rose was a good signing at the time. We had that random CB that Pressley signed but never played. Think his name was Urquhart or similar.
I'm sure there are more but I'm forgetting them.
1/3 isn't a bad miss rate

Isn't this exactly Bamford was?I’d be ok with a very good loan or a player or an experienced player on a short term contract …. I don’t think it has to be a permanent signing.
Neither did he! He had a second similar chance just after the first goal but his touch let him downSod it after 18 min of this match I now believe it doesn't matter who slots in they become a footballing god. I love Simms but didn't think he had that up his sleeve

Saw that as well.Don’t be surprised to see City try to sign Hayden Hackney if we go up this season.
After the last 2 matches Frank has made a bee line to speak to him on the pitch.

I just posted but that Ball off Torp was just begging to be hit,no wonder it eluded the GK and anybody else,no time on the Ball just swing a leg and bam.Neither did he! He had a second similar chance just after the first goal but his touch let him down
Torp was brilliant there.that Ball off Torp was just begging to be hit,

It was a great challenge by Ayling (from memory) to be fair

We signed Andy Webster under Pressley, he wasn't great though wasn't terribleI can't think of many SPL signings but John Fleck was a quality signing. Michael Rose was a good signing at the time. We had that random CB that Pressley signed but never played. Think his name was Urquhart or similar.
