Summer window

That's the hold up then, as you pointed out. Unfortunately we are a few steps down in the food chain, so have to wait for others to get players in and out

 

nobody has made any promises tho. theyve said what they hope will happen and it hasnt, yet

 

Can you think of any reason for that?

 

Wouldn’t be shocked if nothing happens until the last 2 days, wish Mowbray had said nothing after the Rotherham game now

 

I wouldn’t have wasted 5 minutes of my life writing that comment if it was going to go over your head that easily

 

I take your point and it’s a game of opinions. Fair enough. Although you said there has to be a limit. The Leipzig/Salzburg point was meant to say that we don’t necessarily need a few experienced players. If we do have a few experienced players, they should be capable of challenging for the top of the league, which I don’t think these three are tbh. Dack, Stewart, and a new CDM signing would be a much stronger core.

Pure speculation from me but I would guess that KLD/KS/SH etc were disappointed to see Gooch and Pritchard come on against Rotherham instead of Ba and Bennette. Mowbray seems a bit reluctant to play certain players, this included Hume until Gooch got injured and then he came in and made the position his own. Some fans would have been absolutely fuming if we had thrown away a 2-1 lead against Rotherham. Personally I would have preferred we risked that and brought Ba and Bennette on.

 

Love owt like this. For clarity, Lameck Banda just started following the club. 22 year old striker at Lecce.

 

Do you type with one finger

 

As much as I'd love the squad to be sorted now, we will have to wait for others up the chain before we get deals done.

Just hoping at least one incoming is permanent and not all loans

 

5ft 3, I’m out

edit I thought he was a centre mid not a winger, I’m back in

 

He's a right footed left winger. Plays a lot like Gnonto based on the youtube I just watched. Scouting is easy innit.

Also he went off injured 2 days ago so fits the bill

 

Reminds me abit of sess on the 45 seconds I’ve just watched

 

5ft 6 according to the stats site.

watching the vids he definitely looks closer to 5'3 than 5'6

 

Must have had rugby studs in

 

5 foot 3

RTG will have a field day at that.

 

Not like men to lie about inches…

 

3 inches is a MASSIVE difference tho mate

 

Definitely mate. Gooch is just versatile and gets the club, good lad to have around but nowhere near good enough and Bathh is past it but our defensive options weren’t great last season which made him look much better than he is. I do like Pritchard I think he gives us some control and creativity that nobody else could but Dack is definitely an upgrade if he stays fit.

People are far too concerned about losing players who shouldn’t even be in our starting Xl. Brentford signed Pontus Jansson from Leeds when he was about 28 and I think a signing like that would be perfect for us. Nothing flashy whatsoever just a decent defender with loads of experience, leader on the pitch, the kind of player who could walk into the team and be captain straight away but still has a few years in him before he starts slowing down. I think that kind of signing along with a quality CDM who’s also got some years at a decent level would sort us out, the spine of the team is so important and as it stands we have O’nien as the only player with any real experience bar Neil who’s mostly played at L1 level which is just madness.

 

I usually just leave it at 3 inches is massive
