    Anything like the treatment of Downs and he’ll be all nice and judged within 70 minutes of arrival.

    Actually thinking that Downs would benefit from someone in midfield spotting his movement and giving him balls to run on to.
    Be good to get this sorted asap so he’s ready to start the legend journey against the enemy from down the road.

    Looks class!! How do people think we’ll line up if we manage to keep Matty too?

    3-4-2-1?

    Baz
    Ronnie, Stephens, THB
    Suga, Downes, Charles, Manning,
    Eduard, Matty,
    Archer
    ?

    I think that a back four is the way to go, maybe ...

    4-1-2-3, it worked well 2 seasons ago

    Baz
    Bree, Jack/Ronnie, THB, Manning
    Charles/Downes
    Eduard, Matty
    Adarma/Tyler, Stewart/Downs/Archer, Jay/Wee Man

    Charles or Flynn as the 6, Matty as the 8 and Eduard as the 8/10.

    We should exploit our attacking tools and overrun the oppo rather than have the extra CB.

    I think Edwards may take RB in a 4

    Love it! I’d way prefer us to go with more attacking intent too, but not sure if having Matty at 8 is the best position for him. If we get Eduard then it puts in a happy predicament type situation I think!!

    Won’t happen. He’s too good and not currently injured

    Dribbles the ball very similar to Boufal. What’s promising though is that he looks willing to shoot from distance. We need that badly.

    I have a feeling Krasnodar and Spertsyan are dragging their heels a bit though, waiting to see if a better offer comes in.

    Its an Armenian joke. Just when things appear great, they collapse and die.

    I know some of our attackers are a bit rubbish, but describing them as being tools is a bit harsh!




    Apart from BBD maybe….
