At least three of those you did say it about, you've never actually seen play, so you having an opinion on their ability is rather odd to say the least.
Sandat - not seen Covil - seen Aydinlik - only got him on loan Celi - not seen Simons - seen Lo Tutola - seen Of the three that I have not seen, one is only here on loan, so unlikely to be selling at a profit The other three I have seen
Wonder how much he'd seen of maguire in his first 18 months here. End of the day, if we get one Bowen or KLP every few years out of the development programme then it justifies itself.
It will be interesting to see which team starts tonight, I hope he stays with Lokilo and Philogene on the wings, I also think he should stick with Twine, I thought Saturday he started to look more affective. Tufan didn't look ready to start, another 30 minutes would probably be better. I guess the 2 full back positions will be up for debate, I think I would go with Macca at CH and Greaves LB with Coyle at RB.
I hope he stays with those players too. Same with Vinagre at LB and Christie at RB. Needs a settled side and to give players like Vinagre a settled run of games. Coyle has been very good, but he can't be at his best playing with that mask and the after effects of a broken nose & cheekbone. We know what Christie is capable of and hopefully we start seeing it again if he's given a run of games.
I can see your point, it's just Christie and Vinagre defensively look vulnerable and away from home I just feel maybe Coyle and Greaves with Macca give us a bit more defensive cover.
I too see your point . Seems a tad daft though to me to have specifically identified and brought in a specialist LB but then to keep dropping him for a non-specialist fill in. And, although I like SMc and can see that he adds a bit extra aerially, I don't think him at CB and then Greaves at LB fit to the way Rosenior wants the team to play.

I agree, Ideally, Greaves is not the solution to a left back position. I am a bit disappointed with Vinagre defensive wise, both Saturday goals came from his position, he looks good going forward but defensively so far poor. This part of his game needs to improve, but long term I am sure he will not be the solution, as £15m buying clause will not be taken up.
The first goal was Philogene completely switching off to be fair. The second, Vinagre didn't stop the cross on that occasion but again, it's Philogene not tracking his man who scores an effort on goal under no pressure whatsoever. Not Vinagre's fault. If you watch him closely he cuts way more out defensively than anyone else we've had in that position in recent years.
I agree Philogene didn't handle the situation well, but he is not a defender, If you watch Vinagre he got caught in 2 minds, whether to cover Philogene and the cross or a man running in. Both didn't handle the situation well.
