Transfer Rumours Summer Transfer window

Pyuuaahhh

 

You have us staying up, then?

That only becomes possible if we strengthen at the back. Currently desperate.

 

I think desperate is a bit harsh, but I would like to see some movement soon.

 

How’s it harsh?

We’ve currently got Ballard and Seelt at CB. Harrison Jones has been playing at LB!

Line up like that in the PL and we’ll be lucky to get 20 points, man.

 

But people have confidence we wont line up like that, no need to **** your pants at the moment

 

It certainly was…

 

I’m not ****ting my pants

Im saying we’re currently desperate in defence - nobody can deny that.

 

Alese is our best defender imho, by a country mile, if he can get fit then seelt doesn’t get a look in. Jones is third choice at the earliest for LB, so it’s not quite as black as you paint bud. I agree we need two cbs, personally if u want quick tested I’d go for cat kicker, he’s an absolute beast, but may not want to be in north east. I agree btw if we line up with say the hull back 4 then we need a 100 goal striker to get us some draws.

 

You are a bit m8

 

Alese is already ruled out of the first 3 PL games. Unfortunately he’s an absolute sick note, 0 faith in him to be fit for even half of our 38 league games.

 

Maybe right, maybe wrong, who knows, my point is it’s not as bleak as maybe you see it, and I’m sure the owner hasn’t invested so much to be so stupid as to leave us so glaringly short at the back.

 

At this moment in time I think we’re desperate in defence and I’ll explain my thinking…

- Cirkin, Alese and O’Nien all ruled out for August
- Huggins and Alese with really poor injury records
- Reinildo yet to feature and needs to get up to speed
- Ballard and Seelt starting CBs
- H.Jones has been playing LB - he’d get tortured up against the likes of Bowen (oh aye, who we face in 2 weeks)

 

So we are not signing anyone else?

 

Have I once said that? I’m talking about RIGHT NOW. At this moment in time we’re short at the back

Do I expect more signings? Yes 100%

Totally understand why you wouldn’t care anyway, didn’t you wrap in your ST because of kick off times?

 

Hard to tell with Alese as he's not played enough games for us to tell on his ability/potential - same for Huggins

We are crying out for defenders but the club knows that, they'll be doing everythinh possible

I want a CB in well before the West Ham so they can get up to speed

Id loan Seelt out right at the end of the window and ideally our 5 CBs option will be - 2 new CBs, Ballard, O9 and Alese

 

No need for your snotty comments, yes I have, and what has that to do with you, it doesnt mean I dont still follow them.

Oh and just for your benefit, the season doesnt start until 16th August, buy some nappies or man up

 

Your points on the defence are valid but this is poor mate, there’s a million reasons people can’t get to every game in this day and age doesn’t mean they aren’t fans and can’t have opinions, I don’t have one and haven’t for years due to other commitments but get to 8-12 games a season doesn’t mean I care less than those that go every week

 

Agree with pretty much all of that

I’m not ‘****ting my pants’, I’m just desperate for early points and we’re currently not strong enough in defence

How can anybody argue that?

 

Why? I'm 'relaxed' about transfer affairs, primarily because a) it's not my money, b) I have no influence in the decision making process and c) I know the square root of **** all about most of the incoming players. What's not to be 'relaxed' about?

 

Still.scratch my head how Patto kept that out. Unbelievable reactions.
