Just the most silly, uneeded comment given what we all know. There's no need to police opinion, we've signed another striker who's played literally 1 minute of foreign top flight football.
Once again we are (or were) so close to having a complete team that can compete. Add an experienced striker and we are definitely top 6 contenders. Yet here we are again, gambling on kids and loans. Frustrating to say the least. all will be forgiven when Isidor snags a brace and we are still top at 5pm
He’s played 60 secs of senior football. He might end up a world beater but again we’ve been left short in the here and now
Honestly think we are top 6 contenders now, the league is wide open this yr for sure I agree a 'proven' striker might help, but just saying one doesnt necessarily guarentee us anything either We are def stronger now as a team and as you say heres hoping isidor looks the part
So we did sign a striker. Not the experienced one I was hoping for, but whatever. All we can do is support the lad. Hope he has more of an impact for us than Semedo did.
Overall a very good window in my opinion. Obliviously frustrating about the striker yesterday but that doesn’t take away from how we have improved the whole side. For me, Clapham and Browne are the exciting ones, they really strengthen the spine of the team and bring lots of experience, which we cried out for last year.
Just to reiterate my stance. The window has been very positive. Especially from within the club, they've probably made a fortune and only lost Jack Clarke whilst vastly improving our defence and midfield. Wilson Isidor is a lad that excites me, I really hope he can bring the competition Mayenda needs. I also hope he can stay fit for at least 90% of the season. I don't think the window has been a failure, but I do think Speakman has failed. He'll know that. The striker we've brought in will be given all the time in the world by the majority of fans, like Hemir and Mayenda. Just hope we turn up and smash these ****ers today, I've taken a disliking to them since we showed them how tinpot they are. Will take a draw if we aren't on form. I'm over it now, it's all about seeing the lads develop and play, so far it's been honestly the best stuff I've seen. I hope they've got a lad in mind for January, whether we need them or not!
That's irrelevant. Wherever he's played, how effective he is and whether or not he's a good buy it's undeniable he's a striker ... ... no matter how many times it's repeated, like Poveda always being injured, doesn't change the facts.
If we can maintain the consistency, we might even be automatic contenders. But with that lack of forward experience on the left and down the centre, I worry. Definitely gotta be top 6 contenders.
Well I’ll be in Blackpool for my daughter’s 14th birthday (which is today ) so won’t get to watch it. Last time we did that we smashed someone close to Portsmouth 5-0!
