    We are not a top side. We are a mid table side at best. And thus we have to put up with a lot of average squad players.

    It is going to take years to change that.

    Well that was a desperate watch. Glorified training session yes and there were a few positives in the high press and the first half we dominated - bar the goal they have precious few moments to shout about and the goal was our own mistake but pretty boring 90 mins on inaction. Look toothless up front if Wilson isn't on though hopefully the shover Eddie needs to bring in a new winger/striker...

    I know that's why those players aren't good enough and need replacing.

    Why are you implying anyone is expecting to get rid of them in the 1st window?

    Today definitely highlights for me we need a good RW and striker and although I am greedy another CM.

    I am implying that we can’t. And that we have to put up with them for a bit longer yet.

    That’s all.

    You always just want to argue. Your relentless.

    Agreed I think that's unanimous amongst the fans and the club.. We might not get the cm though window though.. The noises suggest rw striker only.

    You misquoted me I simply wanted to resolve the matter and we have. It's not an argument its just you misunderstood. It happens to us all.

    So according to one report Wood touched the ball 6 times.

    I am also in agreement on Fraser. He didn’t actually do anything on the pitch that would warrant him having a good game.

    Honestly I wouldn't read anything into that match mate It won't tell us anything we didn't already know in terms of who's good enough and who isn't.

    If anything Howe now has a better idea on what's needed and where tu play this new possession based game

    If these players were 3rd choice it would be ideal.. I know we need a squad I get what you were saying, but Longstaff, Fraser, Dummett being so close to the 11 is concerning imo.

    I agree on that.

    Just wished we could shift some on for fees so we could actually improve but no ****er wants them. Lol

    I guess no prem clubs want them mate.. The thing is that the level is going to go up a notch in the league this season. Loads of class players have joined clubs already.

    I would start asking how many solid reliable players does a squad need? We've got loads, but very little real quality.

    If gamereas gets injured it'll be tough
