Me too, but a midfield of Seri and Slater would get thrown about like an empty tracksuit. I’ve seen taller and stronger u15s. That’s no criticism of Seri and Slater btw; they’re both gifted midfielders and it’s not their fault they’re short and not physically-imposing but they’d get bullied.
I see them both as the same style of midfielder they need some size and bite next to them.
 
I just assumed they were both injured

Me too. I’ll be concerned if Alfie is on the way out. Can’t replace an entire group of lads who won a League One title and replace them nobodies from the Turkish league and expect to have a coherent squad. I like Acun and appreciate what he’s doing, and some players would’ve left regardless, but I’m not keen on replacing the entire makeup of the squad in one window. I’m getting ‘jobs for the boys’ vibes for some of our recruitment, especially Tufan.

Think the best we can ask for is Seri, Slater and Doch to start the season but that would mean 5-3-2 (352) which I really worry about. Would love to see us go to 433 as I just don't think we have the players to do 343 well enough.
 
In three friendlies. And if those games are to practice we sure aint practicing shots on goal. And normally albeit owngoals we have to shoot on goal to score!
Winterton beat us pre season and crewe hammered us before our premier league season.. your worrying over nothing I think.......I hope

We’ve not heard anything at all about this defensive player Baz said we had a good chance of getting. Wonder who it may be

This, Luton and Hudds proven you can be a top side with fairly average players providing the head coach is good. We’ve lost our whole group dynamic in such a small space of time. The group on the whole needed an overhaul but that didn’t mean like Chazz said earlier getting rid of the pre existing leaders of the squad to do so. They’ve yet to be replaced

If they've dismantled the old squad to build a new one on more money, then it has to justify itself on the pitch. It's that simple.

Ingram
Coyle Figs Greaves Elder
Seri Slater Doc
Longman Tetteh Ali

Just revert to McCann tactics and we should at least compete vs Bristol - if the players look anywhere near fit or committed.

This is my worry. Acun is playing football manager with us. Leave it to the professionals fella you just give them the money to do their job.

At the moment I'm not seeing much cohesion between the way the manager wants to play, and the recruitment.

Of course if it's just about minutes and he's playing the available players 90 mins without regard to tactics then we need to worry less.

I've seen plenty of ****e preseason where we've gone on to start well. Seen plenty of great preseasons where we've been ****e once the gloves come off.

See where we are in 10 games.
