Any sane person would but there's no way we do all that in Jan surely.

Holding, Helik, Binden in
I’d take that TBH.

Not exactly amazing signings.
Holding has a long history of not playing and on a huge wage, Helik is a big lump that's been relegated from the championship twice in a few years and Binden is very young with limited experience.
I can see the logic but it doesn't seem like a step forward from what we have.Gets you experience without losing all the youth, you have two old two young and I think two left and two right. IMO a better mix than four inexperienced CBs, or rather three and Lats.

Holding could go either way, be amazing or a disaster.
Why do people want Helik?
29 yo who’s spent his career playing for basement clubs in the championship? Is this what we’ve become?
He got to the playoffs with BarnsleyWhy do people want Helik?

But we were a league one club then so he was an upgrade? Now we’re better than that.Could have said the same about Fadz (and I think I did when we signed him).
That Barnsley season was clearly a flukeHe got to the playoffs with Barnsley

Yes Cus flukes clearly happen over a 46 game seasonThat Barnsley season was clearly a fluke
Harry Darling that’s played 26 games for them this year?Only two concern with Helik is he fast enough to play the high line we play under Lampard and is he good enough on the ball.
Would have been brilliant as the Faz replacement in a Mark Robin’s 3-5-2 but struggle to see him fit into this side.
Think we’d be better looking at Darling from Swansea.
I mean, they do.Yes Cus flukes clearly happen over a 46 game season
Out of contract this summer with Bristol and Birmingham the teams looking to buy. Surely we could put out a attracting offer?Harry Darling that’s played 26 games for them this year?
why on Earth would he move to us
Well what you conveniently ignore from your point is that in the season they finished 5th they had a different manager.I mean, they do.
21st place the season prior and 24th the season after would indicate that performance was not representative of the quality of the team.
Sorry to ask but when was the last time the CET broke a transfer story?Breaking exclusive CET news
Ah yes the good old SkyBlueDom spouting Doug King out but having no solution himself other than spend spend spend. Faultless strategy.Ah yes, the good old bring sisu back argument when criticising Doug
I'm not sold on Holding at all . "If " squad morale and spirit isn't great would he be the right player to bring in with his recent history?I can see the logic but it doesn't seem like a step forward from what we have.
Holding could go either way, be amazing or a disaster.
No doubt, but illuminating in the sense that we can't now complain that the players don't seem to care about the club in and of itself or want to leave when things aren't going well; we appealed to their selfish, mercenary natures and it's backfired.Is that illuminating?
That’s basically the sales pitch to younger players for any championship club.
But he's 29 so suddenly become prime John TerryWhy do people want Helik?

Not a very good oneWell what you conveniently ignore from your point is that in the season they finished 5th they had a different manager.
Is there a particular reason why many want out? Management style, team morale etc? Or do they just think they can do better elsewhere?
He did alright against Norwich to be fair, maybe his game time will increase from now.
Not a very good one
Anyway one season doesn’t mean everything. As we know. Fact is Helik has been playing for clubs languishing around 20th in the championship and in league one and he’s unlikely to be getting any better.
Apart from a sleepy first 10 minutes ( including him literally turning his back on play as the ball was played to him by Allen), he did well. At times last season I thought he was the one destined for higher things, at times it was Thomas. This season Kitchin was dropped after a poor end to the last campaign (and kitleakgate) and hasn’t been forgiven, Thomas has looked wildly inconsistent.
I still think there’s a player there. Much more than w Binks or Lati at centre half tbh.
I absolutely feel this. Reckon we’re going to lose a good player if true.I still think there is a very good defender in Kitching . Last year ,until the squad and form tailed off , he looked like he could play at a higher level .
Just strange what's happened to him this season
It’s not that everyone needs to be getting better but if they aren’t they need to be at the level we want. Which isn’t relegation level championship/league one.You're missing the point really, not every signing needs to be a player who is going to get better. We are desperate for leadership all over the pitch having dispensed with literally all of it over the past 12 months.
Do you think we should have signed Rudoni?It’s not that everyone needs to be getting better but if they aren’t they need to be at the level we want. Which isn’t relegation level championship/league one.
