Sighed from Everton for £1m I think this lad will be in the first 11 once he’s settled etc brilliant at set pieces on videos I’ve watched rated highly,I think Allen may be out for longer maybe even surgery needed.
Sighed from Everton for £1m I think this lad will be in the first 11 once he’s settled etc brilliant at set pieces on videos I’ve watched rated highly,I think Allen may be out for longer maybe even surgery needed.central midefielders - Kelly, Shipley, Westbrooke, Allen, O'Hare, Walsh, plus Eccles
On the assumption that this guy is too good to be back up - Watson is clearly here to cover Dabo and not much else - it implies Robins believes Westbrooke and Shipley are deemed not quite good enough and Allen is at risk of missing more than they are are letting on. Midfield looks like Walsh Kelly and O'Hare
Much as I like loans, not sure 2/3 in one area of the team as loans may not be so good
Wonder how the player budget is looking?
Excellent player.
Allows Jordan Shipley to move to left if Kastaneer unfit/Hiwula is not on his game. Offers a bit more flexibility and cover. Also we haven't had a Liam in the first team for a while (waits to be corrected!!)
Exactly what we need someone who can put their foot on the ball.Excellent player.
Should have started more times than he has.
Doesn’t stress on the ball. Keeps hold of it and looks for options.
The only reason I can think he has gone out is because with Massengo, Nagy, Brownhill, even Kasey Palmer I guess we have too many options in front of him getting a start.
He will thrive in League One and I am sure he’ll do very well.
We play 4-3-3?That leaves O'Hare in the number 10 position.
Thought a winger would come in if anyone but not going to question it. Hopefully he’s good!
Fingers crossed on this one, looks like it could be an exciting addition if he finds form. Gives us two decent set piece takers in him and Westbrooke now, always a good thing if ones a sub.
Annoys me about Allen though, surely they'd have known about the extent of his injuries a while back, couldn't they have just been honest with us? Or do we think it's part of Robins keeping his cards close to his chest? I suppose it could have been a closely monitored injury that hasn't recovered in the way they'd hoped?
Either way, this lad looks potentially class. I reckon we've got the strongest squad in League One, especially in terms of depth
We do with O’Hare at 10 & Allen/Walsh Kelly at cdm but I feel 433 is here to stay with another sitting type of midfielder mate,my worry is them pair of dereks on the wings coming goodDo we have the players to switch to a 4231 in game if needed? I'd like to think we have the ability to switch things up, I know we could switch to 442
Or playing him narrow left or rightI’m thinking that this may free up O’Hare to play out wide without weakening us in the middle.
I mentioned it could be surgery mate we just don’t know,MR did explain it but he wasn’t certain himself by the sounds of it another midfielder I think has taken us all by shock hence the thinking about Allen’s situationIf Allen was a deep muscle 'tear' and close to recovery, why are people now suggesting he needs an operation. Thought MR had explained the situation last week.
Bit of a surprise this one, I thought we might go for a short term loan to cover The left wing/striker position. Till kastaneer, and Jones get fit.
We’ve got a big squad now, but only 1 goal scorer.
Appreciate the input mate good luck with the season.Hey ladies and gents. Good news to see Walsh sent on loan to you lot. There were people calling for him to go out on loan at the start of the season as we have done with Joe Morrell at Lincoln (playing every game).
I think now that we have Nagy coming back from injury walsh will find it even harder to get a look in. However if we have another Injury in the central midfield area we will need him back asap hence the recall option! LJ said that he wants to do what's right for our club and player. He wants and needs game time.
He is a holding midfielder who as you would expect passes the ball very well and does pass forward rather than just sideways and does have the technique for a killer ball. He can be suspect though defensively (he is a small lad) and due to the lack of game time does not always look very sharp. There is a very good player in Walsh he just needs the game time to kick on and realise his potential!
WestbrookeBit of a surprise this one, I thought we might go for a short term loan to cover The left wing/striker position. Till kastaneer, and Jones get fit.

This signing has nothing to do with Allen, it's been clear all season that we lack midfield options. Westbrooke was never seriously going to go from reserve player to first choice
Will certainly stop anyone getting complacent, and allows players to recover from knocks, preventing them being out for longer.And its pleasing to know that we've had a good start with Shipley and Westbrooke, but have 3 midfielders now all better players than them to slot in and take over really.
Good squad now, rotation a plenty

You could be right mate although I feel O’Hare will play in place of Hiwula or Jobello depending who performs from them 2 O’Hare work rate helping his full back will be key & attacking wise I think he will cause havoc this season.I personally think Robins will go Kelly Allen Walsh centrally when all fit and he will drop Hiwula eventually if he doesn't pick it up and put o hare left side of the 3 forwards, pace and workrate
Only really Pompey and Sunderland (depth wise). Peterborough have 3 decent players, but not the depth. Outside of the usual suspects I think Fleetwood and Rochdale will shock a few this year.I think now and I'm being realistic, there can't be many with better squads in the league surely

Our odds have drifted slightly which is strange, I still think people don't expect us to do anything because of St Andrews
