On balance a good window IMO, yes, a bit disappointing not to get another striker in, but a much stronger squad that we started the window with.
It's half of it. The playing around AT the back is not part of it. Playing it out FROM the back is part of it. Problem we've got right now is the back line is still adjusting and playing too safe. Macca and Coyle happy to break the lines though, which is part of it.
Personally I've no issue with the strikers we've got. I think they'll probably come good. But after Acun and Tan made such a song and dance about getting a big name, landscape changing striker in, to come away with a different one would have been understandable - to come away with none at all is disappointing.
Well Ernest, Acun disagrees with you on this one. He is following your earlier example to bring in free spirits and free-agents with a Southern Hemisphere focus. He’s posted this Ad’: “Football Job in Hull” Men wanted for hazardous journey. Low wages, bitter cold, long hours of complete darkness. Safe return doubtful. Honour and recognition in event of success.
I don't think Lewie Coyle single-handedly taking the ball from the RB position to the edge of the opposition 18yd box is quite what TW has in mind with his play out from the back system, I reckon he envisages a few more players being involved! I'm not complaining mind.
Lewie still first choice but if Giles comes off or can't play both drameh and lewie are both ahead of Jacobs, so we'll see a lot of both k suspect
He's gone Old School - its in print media. Expect yours to be dilivered by Royal Mail to the wrong address sometime soon.
Can't find anything at all on it's either a wind up or can you name the print he has done it in, or better still do screen shot.
Thank goodness you started with at least Windows 7. 7 replaced 2006/2009 Vista which was more universally detested than Leeds – you had to be there!
Pisstake. Same with a few of them. Burstow and Palmer in particular getting numbers in the 40s when there's numbers in the teens available.
Palmer has worn #45 for years now at multiple clubs even before Coventry so that makes sense, I guess. Players get attached to niche numbers these days and stick them in their Instagram handles and stuff. Connolly with #44 is another example. Rushworth wore #22 at Swansea last year and wears it for England under-21s but equally he’s worn #12 before. Wonder what weird squad numbers Kamara and Belloumi will wear.
