We could sign prime Lionel Messi and someone would say he's shite

Yeah he’s not as good as Ronaldo

 

[Sheffield Sky Blue]

Performed well at AFCON and in the Bundesliga last season. No guarantee but he’s proven at a good standard.

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

4 yes.

Rushworth, Onyeka, Yang, Esse

Room for 1 more?

Good old curling

 

[SkyblueTexan]

Any chance of swapping Esse for another midfielder ?

I’d swap Yang for a proper defender tbh

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

What do you think we will bring in?

Feeling at least something will happen in the LB area.

 

[Nick]

Get the announcement done early and then gives us time to get something else done, we need a left back more I think as Jay is being exposed too much, get Cirkin in who's stronger and quicker to get back.

They can still do other stuff without announcing him

Touch wood. It’s needed.

Some of you just can't wait for the winter Olympics to start so you can become curling aficionados again

4 ..Rush worth, Esse, Yang, Onyeka

Hmmm. He couldn’t get in the side at AFCON and the Bundesliga team turned down keeping him after his loan to be clear.

FFS schmmmee why are you such a negative person you must be so much fun to live with!!! Stop fucking posting if this site brings you down so far

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Up there for tackles, interceptions ans duels won last season in Bundesliga

Bit negative mate.

 

[2024/25 League 1 Champs?]

Good old curling

Dennis Curling

on a side note, how many kids do you reckon were named Dennis in early 2000s?

 

[robbiethemole]

I just think this is now the 5th time in 6 away games we’ve gone ahead then not won. If I were in his shoes it would make me look closely at what was going on, and brainstorm with my staff about how to fix it.

The thing is, for the first half of the season we *were* making tweaks during games and even anticipated problems before they happened. I really don’t know why we’ve reverted to just playing in identikit fashion for 90 minutes.

it's easy, when we take the lead. stop playing so fucking open and concentrate on defence, bring on another midfield or Cb to see games out!!!

FFS Robbie can you stop being so negative please? It’s all you post.

This trolling is really counter intuitive

 

[SkyblueTexan]

Firstly I truly hope the deal for Onyeka is done. I also hope he’s our season’s saviour. Someone to galvanize the team, uplift sagging morale/confidence, add some much needed leadership/energy/ball-winning ability in midfield to help us be less exposed and knit things from back to front and help us be more on the front foot.

are you so angry because you have to live with yourself?

 

[Evo1883]

Bit negative mate.

For some balance i believe its better to look at the stats in games where he played more minutes .. looking at games he started in AFCON for example his pass completion seems fairly decent, what stands out is how many ground duels and interceptions he made .

I think he will be a good player for us , fingers crossed

Pass completion 84.53% in bundesliga last season, he's not gonna be creative but can play 5 / 10 yard passes

Torp is 83.4 % this season to compare

I think the ball winning will be crucial for us , bit of presence and ability to drive it forward

Do you put him in for Grimes you think? Or for Eccles/Torp?

His ball winning stats for last season are all greater than Grimes, Torp, Eccles and Rudoni

In a better league

Yes those being negative about it are clearly trolling.

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Can't see Lampard dropping Grimes, he's probably gonna replace Eccles if we're honest. Then Torp or Rudoni for the third spot

If Onyeka is defensively minded, it will be Eccles as the fall guy. I’m thinking double pivot

 

[SBAndy]

Yeah what I’d do is drop Grimes for a few games and just play a bit more of a stodgy game, but no chance Lampard will do that.

 

[shmmeee]

I’d drop Grimes at the minute tbh. And even if not we need to give someone else set piece duty. Maybe Rudoni for now.

 

[robbiethemole]

will he be our new Michael Doyle??

 

[Gint11]

We need a player that, when the momentum shifts during the game against us and we are under the cosh, he will stop it, nullify or disrupt it to shift it back. Maybe he could be that.

 

[SBAndy]

I mentioned about his issue at Southampton a week or so back, and it’s things like the set pieces that make me think he has a foot injury. All of a sudden the guy who never misplaces a pass can’t strike a dead ball cleanly. It doesn’t make sense.

 

[Matt smith]

Eccles deserves to start ahead of grimes at the moment

hopefully means he’ll play higher (grimes)
