Strange to appoint a new head of recruitment if we're skint...
especially at this period, the transfer windows not even opened
yet we've made such a big decision up top
doesnt make sense does it

Agreed. What I think is worth mentioning, Selles made a point in January tranfer window of only bringing in players that want to fight for the cause. Gelhardt, Crooks and Amrabat play like they give a damn. Crooks was the first one to go to the away end after the match today, he cared. Barry and Matazo were great incomings, it's a shame they got injured. He deserves to rebuild with players he deems fit, quality and mentality. Also worth menitioning, Selles had to tell the lads to join and celebrate. It was almost fake and forced by some of them, that was very telling.
Brought in players up for the fight then barely played them, Crooks and Arambat.

Fair point.
crooks was not fit enough unfortunately
thats the reason
amrabat was a mega cheap signing that doesnt mean much
Yeah Selles said something about that. It wasn't totally clear but it maybe explains what's been confusing me with him. He's way too effective to be in and out of the side. If fully fit, one of the first names on the team sheet of this squad, for me.

I have just rewatched Kyle Joseph’s goals reel .
He has had scored with a few good strikes.
Apart from one chance he fluffed in one of the last few matches I can not recall any other chances.
Don’t think it’s his fault but just a reflection on how poor we have been getting the ball into the box.
Hopefully all will change next year.
He had two against sheff weds.Apparently his first shot on target since signing was today.
Cant fault his effort at all, fully agree with you we don't create enough chances.
Because when Amrabat started multiple games he showed his age.
You'd be lucky to get anywhere near that much for most of them.Players I’d move on;
Drameh (sell 500k)
Jones (sell £1million)
McLaughlin (sell £1 million)
Omur (sell £2 million)
Mehlem (sell £1 million)
Giles (sell for £1 million)
Burns (end loan)
Lincoln (end loan)
Alzate (sell £6 million)
Amrabat (end loan)
Sinik (contact end)
Vaughan (out for loan)
Burstow (out for loan)
That would be 12 out of- hopefully bring in £12.5 million for the lot.
Bring in;
Tyler Bindon (loan from Notts Forest)
Zambrano (£3 million)
Barry (loan) or Harvey Knibbs
Gelhardt (loan if possible)

13 out, 8 in. Hopefully at least break even on fees. No investment needed and reduced wage bill.
We won’t be able to pay big fees and need the new recruitment team to pick up smart signings.
* please note all prices are complete guesstimates but think they should be in the ballpark
You forgot Puerta who unfortunately looks like he's headed for the exit door and will surely bring in a profit on the £3 million we paidIf Longman was 500k then I don’t think they’re too excessive. We might get more for Alzate. So £12million for the lot won’t be a million miles off.
