At least Osti attacked the ball in the opposition box, our CBs last season might as well have saved their breath and stayed home every time we got a corner.

Very dangerous from set pieces both in terms of goal threat and to players on both sides

Where during that interview does he sound “really annoyed” with king?
Click to expand...
He doesn't, that's the point! Robins you can tell from this interview and his interview yesterday is excited and we are shopping in a better market for players.

In the past Robins has said stuff like "I'm going to have to be Delboy" and "we need people but we need to see what we can do, we need to move people out" etc etc

So these quotes represent a significant, positive shift for us as a club.

It is interesting to have confirmation that King has already raised the wage ceiling

King has raised the wage ceiling, worked around the clock on transfers, and is very supportive in terms of bringing better players to the club …. The relationship does seem pretty broken

Probably, I’d say most of our signings we haven’t predicted have we apart from the last couple.

I think Ostigard would be the perfect long-term Fadz replacement. Only defender City have had in the past few years who has replicated Fadz style, not afraid to put his head in, goes for every ball etc.

Yes his passings not great but that’s what the other two centre backs are for.

I think Kipre would be better.

McNally fits the bill

And considerably more attainable

I don’t think we have signed anybody this window that hadn’t already been rumoured. Possibly a sign that we are after better players.

Reported in the Belgian press, Boddy confirmed our interest on BBC CWR, and a fan took a photo of him with the squad flying to Portugal …. So I wouldn’t say that was a surprise !

Happened quickly though. The journey from rumour to "there's a Japanese bloke with the squad" was as swift as his dribbling.

I hope so. 2 more in the Sakamoto mould, i.e. we've never heard of them but class, 1m+
