If we got the midfield set up right thomas and kitch could do a job until the summer pointless having thomas sat on the bench stifling his development

The other weird news from Nixon is Burnley want to let go two CBs as they want to trim the squad in that area.

Considering the Lati rumors, it just seems weird to me that they want to let two go and sign another one

So as things stand we look to be selling Lati and bringing in Rak Sakyi on loan.

Still no RB cover or rotation for Milan. One CB down and covering Sheaf injury with a young unproven player.

Appreciate there maybe other things going on in the background but we look dangerously short of numbers and quality given we could still get dragged into a relegation battle.

Lati would be fine with being a back up there compared to the players who presumably are frustrated with lack of playing time.

Doug hasn’t got a clue what he’s doing, need a director of football to come in asap! Bling is useless

I imagine that recalling Burroughs will be the cover for MVE, whilst I’m not overly thrilled with it, the lad had a good loan at Lincoln last season.

Good loan?

He lost his place at Christmas and couldn’t get back in.

And now he can’t get minutes at Kilmarnock

You’d hope it’s a recall to get him minutes elsewhere or get him gone, instead of being part of the squad

Burnley have Ekdal, Egan, Delxroix and Worrall not getting minutes. I’m sure they’ll shift whoever they can out of those 4.

Signed Sonne as cover at RB as well. Lati links make no sense

He'll be gone in the summer.

M6 jammed with a queue of cars to drive him there

Kai Andrews got a full 90min debit yesterday against Hibs. They lost but their fans said he was the only decent thing about the team yesterday. Put himself about, good passing and positive on the turn… sounds like what we need …

Think he did okay in pre season.

It's right he gets good minutes on loan. The way things are going for us at the moment I wouldn't want to expose him to it. He'd have one 25 min performance, be written off by everyone as shit and then have a queue of people wanting to drive him to another club.

Most that are here have had decent opportunity to establish themselve and have had a good throw of the dice.
There's little justification for me in not seeking to move on BTA & JDS
Bassette has been chucked in the deep end too early. There's a player in there .
Lati is a move on if an acceptable offer comes in.
Andrews needs the loan spell with a run of starts. I think that he has plenty of potential and should be given time and every chance.

Issue is he would be on the M1

I forgot the window closes tonight. I know is a stretch for you but could you leave you character assassination til you see who we actually sign this month?

Because he has similar issues to finding the goal ?

Contrary to the masses, as time ticks by, I actually don't think we need to bring in many or even any, part of the problem is we've been overloaded in some positions and have rotated players and positions too much which has not allowed anyone to settle. Lampard has only been in for a few weeks and is still reviewing the resources he has at his disposal. In my opinion, the players are a talented bunch and just need to settle down, gain some continuity and confidence.

Lati is a good professional but I think him leaving could help settle things down in both defence and midfield as we can stop trying to slot him into different positions and instead leave the others to build partnerships on the pitch, it will take time and require enough patience for the players to own their mistakes when they happen. For example, a back two or three made up of Thomas, Binks and Kitchen, I think will become pretty strong once they get a run of games together, and while we still need a stonger midfield, I really rate Torp, especially as he seems to have become stronger, more physical, and vocal, he will only improve. Rudoni clearly has talent and works hard, and isn't afraid to get stuck in, while Eccles is steady and reliable as is Allen, but neither are quite dynamic enough to lift the teams performance level or be match winners, and thats what we need. Add an experienced head into the mix and we've got a talented midfield.

Losing Lati and Sheaf (more likely to injury than sale) could actually change the dynamics and help to balance out the team, clearing the way for other players to step up and take responsibility.

Then all of the forwards, including BTA, have a lot to offer in my opinion, I think we have a good mix talent, it's just finding the right combination and sticking with it for a run of games.

The only thing we lack is experience and some belief, but this only comes with time, I also think the players need to back each other more, and build some spirit. If we add anything it needs to be this, and preferably in a CM position to help steady things.

To me this is transition season number 2 followingon from last year where we probably overacheived, and therefore the less in and outs the better, just the addition of one or two calm heads to pull it all together, I think next season we'll see a different team.

I also think Lampard has a point to prove and that we could be the team that turns his management career around, I like what I've seen from him so far, his passion is something we've lacked for a long time.

Whether you guy's agree is your opinion but some of the abuse and knee jerk reaction towards the team and especially particular individuals is embarrassing and naive. It's also pretty clear that some of the apparent ITK info is at best made up of 5% truth, 95% fantasy to fuel egos, 2+2 does not equal 5.

Nothing happens overnight in football and nobody is an instant and consistent success, so as frustrating as it is, we have to be patient in the knowledge that the skillset is there we just need to manage it properly to acheive success.

Whatever way you look at it, we are in a much better place than we have been for years especially when you compare the players we have now to those a few years ago, we should recognise that fact and get behind the team and management, including the owners.

Sorry but I don't think Danny8353946293736293946292749383 with 161 followers is the kind of source we should be quoting.

Imagine supporting a team whose transfer policy is something other than “He used to play for Chelsea”
