Yeh that would be a decent pick up. Shame though, pretty big club Bordeaux... hopefully they make some sort of come back.

I suspect much will depend on relative fitness of the four of them but I tend to agree given the amount we paid for him and how desperate we were to sign him EMC will start.It’s all hypothetical until the season starts. Even if Sakamoto starts the season, the long term trajectory is that EMC and Wright are our longer term options. It remains
Another point to make, Sakamoto’s xG stat wasn’t great, he scored a lot of low probability chances and if I’m being consistent, was in a short timeframe of Dec-Feb so I’m sceptical it was a flash in pan - I obviously it wasn’t but that’s what we seen with COH.
If EMC brings last seasons form into this season, we have a player who is twice that of Sakamoto. He could genuinely be a star for us.
Get Ignatenko or Pedro Diaz too and we're sorted.Just seen Bordeaux have gone under and all players released on a free. Would love to see us pick up zan Vipotnik
I’m very confident his game will translate, think EMC will make himself one of the first names on the team sheet before long.I suspect much will depend on relative fitness of the four of them but I tend to agree given the amount we paid for him and how desperate we were to sign him EMC will start.
I have seen you and others say you expect him to be a star and soon to be playing in the Premier League. I have only seen fairly limited bits of his play on TV, but just wonder why if he is so outstanding he has never played above League 1 when he will be 25 by the start of the season? Before TomRad starts accusing me of being negative this is a genuine question not a criticism of EMC. I just wonder why people are so sure he will make the step up so comparatively late?
Players improve at different rates, its hardly a new thing that applies to only Mason-Clark. I'll trust we've done our homework on him but I'll also trust my eyes, individually he was a far better player in League 1 than any of the players that got promoted with us from said division.I suspect much will depend on relative fitness of the four of them but I tend to agree given the amount we paid for him and how desperate we were to sign him EMC will start.

Would I need a poorer grammatical level to be able to?Bet you're fun at parties
Both Ignatenk or Pedro Diaz would be good additions, both really comfortable on the ball and keep the ball ticking over, out the two I'd take Ignatenko he just makes the game look so easy and everything I've seen them do goes through that lad so would suit the way we play.Get Ignatenko or Pedro Diaz too and we're sorted.
We signed Rudoni and Dovin they didn’t cost nothing...
I'll also follow this up just to give one example off the top of my head. Pretty sure Toney was around 24 when he moved from Posh to Brentford.Players improve at different rates, its hardly a new thing that applies to only Mason-Clark. I'll trust we've done our homework on him but I'll also trust my eyes, individually he was a far better player in League 1 than any of the players that got promoted with us from said division.
To reiterate though, I don't understand peoples obsession with this who will start thing... its nonsense. Different players will start different matches.

Ihnantenko would be a perfect fitGet Ignatenko or Pedro Diaz too and we're sorted.
I read they've gone into the 3rd division of France, the owners of Liverpool was meant to buy them and would stop them folding however they pulled out and it's too late to find a buyer, shame really they were one of the top French sides years agoWhat league are these in now!?
Which is why I would go for BNC if he is affordable and interested in coming.Completely agree. Times have moved on for cov. Now we are making sure the squad is right. Players will rotate fluidly, so there should be no such thing now as a best 11. Players who rotate should all be at the right level if we are to get promoted
Yeah and? I literally said I’m not against the idea of using loans or free agents.
We need more depth and, if possible, quality. If Sheaf or MVE gets injured then we’re going to struggle to match their abilities in those positions, let alone if Simms or Haji gets injured, we’ll have no real quality second striker for rotation then.
Imagine adding this guy on a free transfer to our midfield. Wins headers and tackles, never once looks rushed in possession, assists a goal. Could slot him next to Sheaf and have one of the best pivots in the league.Ihnantenko would be a perfect fit

Who has advocated spending zero ? Nobody & certainly not me - something you've just made up How do you know how much there is to spend ? You don't. Strange as you say £4.5M now, previously were happy to spend £11M and now are on about frees and loans .
I'd love to think there's a Hull version of you because he'll be fully losing the plot on the Hull forum as they only have about 4 players.
Give it time, its boring when you aren't linked with anyone yes but in reality we don't need much and we have time to do it. Chill.
Mentioning it every 5 minutes was my first clue.What makes you think I’m panicking? I’m just stating that I think we need a back up ST and backup CDM, not arsed when we get them in but we need more depth as it is.
Mentioning it every 5 minutes was my first clue.
Who has advocated spending zero ? Still waiting for the answer to that one. I've never stated that we didn't have some funds and nobody has a clue what these funds total. The type of players you were on about previously were unaffordable and up to £11M is unaffordable unless some mystery funds have materialised.You said that my idea of getting in players for depth is unaffordable, so I said that I’m not against loans or free agents, that’s where that idea came from.
I just don’t think you’re reading my comments fully tbh, I said we clearly have £4.5 mil minimum to spend because we were looking at Stamenic, and I can only assume that’s aside from the Rudoni transfer. In that instance I’m not on about how much I want us to spend total, I’m just saying we clearly have that in the bank otherwise we wouldn’t have almost signed Stamenic. So players aren’t unaffordable as you keep suggesting, we clearly have some money from somewhere.
He's on £40k per week. Only way anyone is affording him is a heavily subsidised loan which I can't see us entertaining.Harry Souttar of interest to Stoke and Sheffield Utd. Would be ideal for us
Youv'e been banging on about it incessantly on a daily basisI think I’ve only mentioned it once today and then Chris questioned me on it, so I replied explaining my point of view. It’s hardly every 5 minutes

Got absolutely no chance of getting himImagine adding this guy on a free transfer to our midfield. Wins headers and tackles, never once looks rushed in possession, assists a goal. Could slot him next to Sheaf and have one of the best pivots in the league.
Why?Got absolutely no chance of getting him
Because teams bigger than us will want him if he’s that goodWhy?
He's not "that " good but he would be good for us at our level . Bordeaux play in the second tier so he won't be on big moneyBecause teams bigger than us will want him if he’s that good
You’ve been banging on about it incessantly on a daily basis.
We dont need any extra playersI don’t think I have tbh, maybe on various threads here and there but all this is usually in reply to someone that says we don’t need any extra players, or something along those lines.
If we sign 3 players I would say 2 of them would be players we can improve and be ready to fill the gaps when the big news are inevitably sold . This is the new model and it will be interesting to see it pan outI don’t think I have tbh, maybe on various threads here and there but all this is usually in reply to someone that says we don’t need any extra players, or something along those lines.
