i think you should be more forth coming with the interesting part for him Magennis and eaves is not really interesting as if you set your goals high they are or would not be in any plans.
What i will find interesting is if we accept the 10 mill for KLP and a bid for Greaves, They may think we do not need any of this team only till we bring what we want in.
We may as well sack McCann’s successor too, he’s bound to have a **** run of results fairly soon once he comes in.
If he has any ambition whatsoever, they will bin Eaves, Magennis, and Wilks at the first opportunity and replace them with proper forwards.
Wilkes is only 22, he has shown enough in his time at city he could be an asset, just not at the moment
He needs sitting down and telling that he needs to improve, instead of just being allowed to do what he wants on the pitch. He needs to be dropped to let him know his position isn't guaranteed. It's harsh, because there's definitely a player in there, but he only has to look at that lad at Leeds, Tyler Walker to see how hard work can benefit.
I've just emailed Acorn Lilley and told him to stop messing around and transfer the cash to the Bedlams. I know about these things, so I advised him to go to his bank account on-line to make a transfer payment, fill in the details of where he wants the money to go, the amount - in this case £30,000,000, and press send. If it asks for a mobile phone passcode to be entered, I'm too thick to know what that's about, just get help. On the final page it says 'do you wish to make another payment', say 'yes' and send me a few quid.
I like Magennis:s work rate but he has to do moe in the right box. He has experience and he's an unofficial leader. I wouldn't mind him staying as a squad player. As much as I want Eaves to do well, he just isn't good enough. I doubt Smith will be either Wilks has potential, but something is seriously wrong ATM. Having said all that, I'd be happy with, and wouldn't be surprised to see, a fresh start up front .... which should include KLP returning to where he should be playing. I just hope we hang on to KLP and Greaves, not just because they are great prospects but also because they are ' one of our own'. It's such a positive having local lads coming through who really are good enough to be there.
Any sale of those two would be dependent on them being loaned back to us. A striker is being looked at in the transfer window, a proper one. We're also chasing a defensive midfielder as a support for Smallwood, a centre half and a right back. Could be up to six coming in throughout the window, with potentially four going out. One of whom might surprise you.
God I hope he doesn’t revert to playing KLP on the wing again waste - he gets marked out of it as he did late yesterday
I'd be disappointed if KLP, Greaves or Honeyman left in Jan. I agree we need a goalscoring no9, an experienced centre half and cover at fullback. I'd also be happy to see cover for Smallwood if Tom H isn't going to be a regular starter.
In fairness, the back three CB's have gelled well.... its perhaps better coaching that would take them to the next level... IMO we're actually quite blessed to have them... I think HT2 said earlier, the priority seemingly is a number 9...
It's the glaring one isn't it? Goals are coming from midfield and we need more of a contribution from forward positions. I'd also suggest just that bit of nous in both boxes is still needed from set pieces. When did a defender last score for us?
