    Orsic was a very weird transfer in that Jones never played with wingers so our first signing was a winger who he never used.

    Ironically our last signing was a 10ft tall target man who he would’ve loved but he got sacked like a week later and said target man was barely seen as well

    … Who was hopeless as a target man, but ironically might have been better if we’d played with wingers

    It’s maturing well and getting better with age.

    And personally that’s what I expect to happen with all our “outs”. Whether that’s by design or default, it will severely hamper our “rebuilding” program. Hope I’m wrong …

    Szobozlai plays further forward than Lavia so wouldn't rule Liverpool out.

    Szobozlai can play deeper but he's not a DM like Lavia. Klopp tends to play 3 midfielders and Henderson is getting older now so won't play as much.

    I couldn’t agreee more. Don’t know what the issue was but it looks like we suffered a significant financial loss on his signing fee

    Szob is an excellent 8. I guess he can play Mac more as a ten, but makes me think Lavia > Arsenal, or a feeling in the big clubs that he’s a year away. In which case…

    He might not have been the answer to our problems as I’d hoped when we signed him, but I struggle to believe he’s so bad that he only deserved 6 mins of PL football when the rest were producing **** all anyway. Like you say, how he does now will give us some indication.

    Meh, let them do it. It will blow up in their faces eventually.
