I swear people are delusional. Covil was criticised on here a fair amount in the brief time we saw him and he didn't look ready, Vaughan is still young, Sinik was loaned out as LR didn't want him and Longman was in and out of the 18 at the end of the season.

Yet we only need 1 winger, of course we do. Don't worry about scoring goals lads, we don't need them

Can’t remember anyone criticising Covil.

I don't think any Longman, Sinik, Vaughan or Covil are good enough if we are serious about a playoff push. So 2 wingers are needed at a minimum. If Sayyadmanesh can get back to the player he looked at the end of the 21/22 season he's a player at this level, but he looked a long way off last season.

I don't disagree. We just need someone who's a bit more proven. They're all young players and we need a better balance.

I say the same at centre half too. We're crying out for an Alex Bruce/Wayne Brown/Paul McShane type
 
What did we pay for him? £6 million or thereabouts?

What was he paid and what did we recoup on him?

Seem to remember him coming for 7m or thereabouts and was a high earner. Think we made a profit on the fee so not so bad I guess. Think I just remember being frustrated he seemed to be injured a lot.
 
We currently have five wingers in Ally, Longman, Sinik, Vaughan and Covil. We only need one more if we keep all of these. I don’t think the value of budget last year was terrible. We finished 10th/11th from the date Rosie came in and this was despite not having a striker for many weeks. If we sell some of our established players like Greaves and Oscar then we may need more in but otherwise 5 looks about right.
Vaughan and Covil aren’t natural wingers

Shame he's now the manager of Bootle and 39. Gwan Steve.
