Robins and crew really buggered up the left back slot let’s be honest. I’m a fan of bidwell but we’ve desperately needed an MVE equivalent on that side for years and now we’re lumbered with da silva on a long contract who hasn’t been up to it all

2 more years to Jun 2027, he will probably get a 3 year deal somewhere else in the Championship this summer if the fee City demand is not the biggest.

As pointed out that cost him his job, JDS for all his faults doesn't make that back pass

You seem to be avoiding the actual point i am making though. Is that because you have no argument against it other than you think Dasilva is shit?

Da Silva is a weak link in our team yes he is shit all the opposition can see it aswell. We have allen who is playing well player of the month nominee so id play both grimes at left wing back and Allen in the centre until bidwell is back

Apologies @ Chicken McGraw, impressions can be deceptive.

For balance.

Just looked at recent activity. Since 13:49 yesterday (i.e. in 29h 21m) there have been 15 activities.

I have deleted my previous post about Chicken McG suffering from diarrhoea as I thought it a little harsh in retrospect.

Left back is our weak point, full stop. We've needed an upgrade on Bidwell and now JDS for a long time.

I don't know, its the ultimate dismissive reaction with no suggestion that there has been any thought to it.

I have used it myself but I will always considered all available actions before I do so.

Why not play Rudoni there then? Would allow us to play Allen, Grimes and Torp in the middle.

Because it didn’t work brilliantly with Rudoni, he gifted Derby a goal

I could just have given a Pooh reaction. I decided to show a thought process, having previously suggested that Pooh reactions are a sign of a lack of thought.

Less than 30 words. How long did it take you to read? Or did you just not bother going to that effort?

Some posters use few words but then it is difficult to know what they actually mean. I could give examples but I don’t want to be nasty.

You could have saved two words, the words “Yet again” are superfluous.

I’ll save you the bother - too wordy.

Wasnt Dasilva supposed to be the upgrade for Bidwell. It took a long time to get that deal done so he must have been highly rated. Hadn’t turned out to be a sufficient upgrade to allow Bidwell to move on. Can’t be een as ever reachigbthat level given Bidwell has just signed an extension to his contract.

Not One of the recruitment team’s finest hours.

Does it mean a back 5 has to continue?

Nobody atm.

Back to 433 in a couple of weeks once we have all our best players fit with Bidders at LB.

1 point off the playoffs and we haven't really got started yet.
