Robins had said he wants 3 more players
One of them striker (as said)
One of them bright (or creative mid) most likely
Who would he want to bring in as a third signing?

Best guess would be a winger or a midfielder

Hope it’s a pacy winger. Looks like Jobello will need time to adjust and Kastaneer is made of glass, someone in the Kent/Murphy/Thomas style. Maybe no end product but puts the fear of god into the opposition back line. We looked quite pedestrian against Southend going forward.

I think.you will find that one Ibrahimovic is equal to THREE Kelly-Evans'.

Being pedantic but Murphy was a good finisher.

Jacob Murphy one of the best players we’ve had since our drop from the top in 2001.

Think we need another CM if we're going to be playing 3 in the middle. Kelly, Allen, Westbrooke and Shipley probably not enough although Eccles looked good on Saturday.

Was told by a friend who works for an agency that they had tried to tout a player or two to us and were told we were OK for central midfielders.

I dont want to judge after only one game, but unless Dabo improves, I'd be looking at a RB. Even if not to start, we dont have actual cover at RB. Yes we have pask, but hes a centre half that can play RB. I think we need an actually RB personally.

We don't need 2 though, pask is decent enough cover

Didn’t see much of an issue with Dabo tbh & I can be guilty of judging players far too early.

If they are looking after him well and have a good understanding of his issues then probably best for him that he stays with them.

Grant Ward if it was ever possible. Seems like he's just recovering with Ipswich from a long term injury, but that shouldn't stop us from slipping a contract in front of him.

Not quite sure what you expect from a right back. Ive seen dabo 3 times now and been happy with him. Defends well, gets forward and been in a defence that's kept 3 successive clean sheets if you count pre season. It comes across to me as fans needing someone to scapegoat and he is this years choice

If we want a scapegoat we’d choose Jobello on that showing! Dabo did not have a good game...mason had a very good game. Which is what I would hope for in a fullback’s performance.

Then do tell me why you think he was poor. Mason was very good i agree but dabo wasnt poor.

I actually think he’ll come good. He just didn’t have a good game...gave the ball away, beaten in the air regularly, made some poor choices/got caught out of position a couple of times etc.
My other point is that I don’t think anyone has been particularly harsh about any of the team. Just said that certain players weren’t as good as others.

My guess is a forward/winger loanee from the Prem similar to Luke Thomas.

Mason also gave the ball away in a couple of bad positions. Dabo isnt the tallest so will be targeted in the air. To say he was poor is being harsh imo.

Ok. As I say, I think he’ll come good. Looked aggressive and like Jobello appears to have a decent touch etc.
However, in comparing/rating the team’s performance I felt his and jobello’s were below the others. I thought Rose looked a little off the pace too but again, they all looked like they could play.
I’ve seen good players not play well before. I’m not overly worried.
