The Australian kid who has played 10 minutes all season. Both Robins and Lampard said the same thing; talented player but his body isn’t robust enough to play meaningful minutes yet.

CM and RB are positions of need, agreed. That doesn’t mean we’re not working on signing players in this position. As things stand, we don’t have the personnel to play the system we want to play and that’s a problem.

How many games has the Rangers guy played ? Seems to have been injured a lot too.

Bit of difference between playing at decent levels and for his country and comparing to a young kid coming directly from Australia. We have 3 regulars all currently injured and cant play the system we want to hence signing players to help with that.

The problem is you talk in absolutes, you always say a signing is done and ready to be announced. No one’s doubting you get info before others but you could just say ‘we are in talks’ rather than acting like it’s done and dusted - I’m not just talking about this one but there’s been plenty other, I.e the 48 hour thread

You spent all day yesterday crying because people said you were wrong mate. You replied to every post calling you out. I don’t mind either way - I rate that you stick the info you get in here whether nailed on or not - but don’t pretend everyone else is obsessed with SBT except you.

I wasn’t on here all day yesterday and certainly wasn’t crying

show me posts where I was crying

only crying is laughing at you for that pathetic comment

I relayed info. Got told I was making it up for sources to back it up literally 30 mins later and everyone went quiet

show me where I was crying all day yesterday. Please show me

Yes, if we want to play with proper wingers. If Lampard wants to play Haji as a striker, we have 2 first wingers and that’s it.
Click to expand...
Why are we so desperate to play wingers though? Won the last 2 with 3 at the back and 2 up front and can see us sticking that way for Watford/Swansea/Leeds by which time you would expect EMC at least to be back. Been unlucky with injuries but left of the three is probably our strongest position. Not sure I see this as a priority at all.

You’re not selecting the team. If you want to play 4-3-3/4-2-3-1 and you don’t have the personnel available to do that, it’s a problem.

5-3-2 has served a purpose and given us balance against tough opposition. That said, we have 3 quality players that are wingers in EMC, Wright and Sakamoto.

Lampard may want to play a 3-4-3 if he likes the 3 CB and WB shape. He doesn’t have the personnel to do that either.

So that’s him top by a long way. Fernandinho and Jimmy both second with 3 points and Saddle cut adrift at the bottom with minus 15

What I don’t get is there is no love for the lad there. Not loads of interest, they obviously got offered a decent deal to get him to travel. Why would they ask for bonuses and then scupper the deal because of it

Paterson should be playing tomorrow. If he doesn't then I'd say that's gone tits
Schlupp I've heard nothing

We are after a central midfielder but it's not that Cundle

We've had better results lately playing the way we've been forced to play due to injuries.
Maybe we should just stick with 3-5-2 and bring in a WB instead?

Lampard wants wingers. He said it himself. He wants to play 4-2-3-1
