    Surprised to see us go for another winger who prefers the left. Although Talbi and Adingra seem comfortable on the right too. Do we need another option on the right wing to start? Seems a lot of wingers

    Decent back up options for Poveda.

    They’re both versatile

    But we need a left footer for sure

    Possibly. Do have a feeling we are going to be utilising Isidor out on the left.

    Also starting to think Mayenda is going to be pushed out to the right if we sign a higher profile striker. I'm hoping Mayenda gets a lot of minutes through the middle.

    Feel we might go for a left footed winger who can play AM as well

    I honestly don't think you can have enough match winners, I want a bench with 4 or 5 real quality attacking options

    The pace and energy we are signinh is exactly what I wanted to see

    Maybe, wouldn't help with the cover issue though since that would just make it 4 right footed wingers.

    I can't wait for him to declare for Madagascar though.

    AFCON will be a problem but we don't have to release players. However, I would be disappointed if SAFC did actually block a player from representing their country.

    The new dates are understood to be December 21 to January 18, cutting right across the Premier League festive programme and only just missing at either side dates for Champions League match rounds.

    However, it appears FIFA rules governing the release of players will mean clubs are within their rights to block players going to either the AFCON or the World Cup later in 2026.

    “It is not compulsory to release the same player for more than one “A” representative team final competition per year,” FIFA’s regulations on the status and transfer of players state.

    Why would Poveda ever need a backup?

    Are you trying to tell me he won't play 100% of the minutes of 100% the games in the calendar?

    What's smoking crack like?

    That Harvey Elliott kid is ok, think he'd look good in red and white.

    We need some focus on the defence now. We have got chances and goals galore potentially.

    Or we just win every game 5-4, either or is sound.

    I wouldn’t move him on

    I’d sign another winger and keep him for deep cover just incase

    Does our wing cover after the 4 not come from Mayenda/Wilson, or play with wide mids like Enzo did and Sadiki could do?

    I actually like the lad. Very unpredictable so understand where you are coning from but hes Young so can learn and pace to burn with and without the ball
    Think he'll fit our style very well. We are going to terrify teams on the break (or transition) with the pace in this team.
    Need a bit of solidity now CB's and Keeper and a CF who can hold it up.
