So no DM, and no Striker. Yet another no 10 and a pair of wingers with apparent potential but limited track record.

How many who ****ed us off elsewhere wouldn't have done with a stable, progressive, credible coach still in charge?

How many of those whinging about Rosenior will genuinely see a positive change this year ?

Its clearly gonna be a work in progress for the foreseeable.

Good luck to Walter. He surely can't be happy. He's been foisted with young guns but has his structural targets binned off.

Can't help thinking such a root and branch reset has been a challenge way too far in a single window.

Hopefully the ownership acknowledges quickly where its made mistakes. That comes from professionalism as opposed to populism at the very top.

If signing Cooper was right for the group, then sign the c*nt and be damned if necessary..

Don't backtrack "cos of some halfwits on social media - unless you've just signed him for the homecoming entirely for us ****wits on social media.

Though I fear in trying to do too much too soon - they've shat on their own doorstep.

Acun's honeymoon is probably now over unless miracles happen from here.

Gonna need more than just a messianic feel-good factor to keep the MKM full.

Just realistic
The last strikers we signed on a perm

Are billy sharp and mason burstow

I'm not even talking about the striker posts it's everything.
Bedia & Burstow? It's got that certain catchy ring about it.

A sort of modern day Shearer & Sutton....Yep,that's it,Blackburn had the dynamic due some 30 years ago,49 goals between them in a season.

So lethal they were dubbed "SAS"






Wonder how we'll get on with "BAB" ?

Except we'll never play two up top so it'll be Bedia or Burstow....BorB
 
I reckon Bedia will be handful when he settles into the squad.

Delighted with the two wingers. Kamara’s a pretty solid striker as well by all accounts.

The real mystery for me is how good Puerta is.

Lets have a solid season and push on next year without the need for wholesale changes.

There's no question we've signed talent. But top 10 is a big ask when they're just so green.

Strange I woke up and thought
Bishan Bedi and David Burstow
 
Might not be popular but I would definitely get Connolly in on a 1 year, if he does well a 1/2 year option. Would probably get 8/10 goals and definitely help Bab ( bed and bur ) get up to speed in this division. Don’t shoot the messenger or **** your nickers it’s just an opinion, sounds like an onion but has more layers
 
So much negativity.

The only problem I can see is why we got another keeper on loan when we could have tried for Cannon on loan or another Prem striker.

We were desperate for wingers, we have 3 potentially good ones. More than last season. Midfield looks stronger depending how they fit in. Largely unchanged at the back. So let’s remain positive for 15 games or so.
 
A third keeper and a #10 we didn’t need. No striker.

Acun is a chancer who makes it up as he goes along.
Yeah he's a chancer... he's Brought it apparently the best keeper in the division, 2 midfielders the South American people are raving about as potential high 8 figure players, he's Brought in a winger the Portuguese people are saying is a gem, and another some are creaming over, he's brought in a CB who ultimately MAY be an upgrade long term on JG, he's entered the permanent market rather than relying on loans... im guessing they tried every avenue within the budget to bring a striker/ the striker they wanted in, but had to settle for someone with a scoring record in another league.... he's a crap owner for trying to make this a stable set up.
 
I have no idea how we're going to lineup, but I genuinely think that is a young an exciting team. We're short a striker and arguably a defensive midfielder, but on the whole I've been quite pleased with the business we've done this window. We've undergone a complete squad overhaul, brought the average age down and got rid of some high earners. The shear amount of change, coupled with Tims unique style could be a disaster, but could also lead to one of the more exciting seasons in recent times.
