    It's the hold up play I think we need, it's the one thing our 2 forwards aren't good at

    How do you regard Lankshear with his back to goal and aerially?

    He is a strong lad but he doesn't quite know how to use his body yet. He's more of a penalty box striker at the minute

    I was impressed with his graft out of possession tonight. Doesn’t always execute perfectly but dug us out of one or two situations by working back. Would love him to blossom here. We don’t have all that much outright creativity in the final third. He adds to that.

    Being so good in some areas but then having that pass completion % sums him up:emoticon-0140-rofl: I really like him. He never hides and always tries to positively impact games.

    That’s because of the style of pass he attempts though in fairness he hardly ever plays safe

    Fair play to AA, could have easily downed tools after not making an appearance. Done well last few games, hopefully sticks around. Don’t mind the long term young signings but would love a couple proven loans to come and improve us instantly

    I think it has fully sunk in to Adil that as skilful as he is that he has to work a lot harder than he has in the past , RLB will not disregard him if he shows the effort he has displayed since he came back in to the squad .

    Spurs are desperate for a GK with Vicario out for 3 months+. If they offer us £15m or so I'd probs take it and reinvest, Moore has done very well when he's been called on.

    Hes just someone we have shown an interest in, I wondered given him playing a few times in Europe if he'd become more suitable for us

    I constantly read that our squad is too thin and that it will be our undoing but look at the quality in that absent team (Poveda, one of the league’s best wingers in the second half of last season not on there either) and yet we’ve not ceased being competitive throughout.

    I’m going to go against the grain on this one. His all round play is decent but I want us to have more players who can finish and execute a final ball. Neither him nor Ba or Rusyn are that. If we can get money to replace them I would do it.

    It will be salary I think. We were close to our ceiling before so will need to create so space to attract the higher quality of player.
