Assuming Doc goes, then you're basically left with two options for each of the three positions, with some of those able to play across the front 3 when needed too (Twine, Tufan, Traore in a pinch) so it's not as bloated as it looks, but that's without knowing what our forward stocks will look like. It could mean we end up looking at sending Covil and Vaughn out on loan.

It's looking likely Doc will go in jan

We must have confirmed a signing I thought!


Nah.


As you where.

Ernie you should know better...

Go to page 1, Post 1 should be upto date unless Lamborghi (interesting spell correct) has found a new way to over indulge and has gone on a marzipan bender...
 
<laugh>

Must just be my imagination that you criticise him when he talks positively and criticise him when he slams the players. Just hours ago you wailed about Grant McCann's tactical masterclass against him in a League Cup game. That's on top of your complaints about his spin about signings as if bringing in good signings is now a negative and just a distraction from his horrid playing style. I mean I could go on and that's just your posting. Then there's Kalman's posting about him too.. Few others fit the bill as well I would warrant a guess.

But hey, it's all bollocks isn't it. It's funny because the way you post about Rosenior is very much how I posted about Shota, and I couldn't stand the ****. But it must just be a coincidence.

I don’t hate Rosenior. He’s a lovely bloke and I want him to succeed but I just don’t think he’s good enough to be coaching a Championship team at this stage of his coaching career. I think he waffles too much but doesn’t have the performances or results to back a lot of it up.

Vaughan to add to that list too. I know he’s only played wide for us so far, possibly partly out of necessity. He apparently is naturally a central player though and I would agree he looks like someone better suited to playing centrally and doesn’t offer much width.

This is good news.

Presumably a central midfielder or two will be moving on.

Picking a midfield 3 from

Seri
Slater
Simons
Tufan
Traore
Doc
Twine
Bird

Currently still Woods in that mix. Doc will likely be looking to be shifted but will he be fit and/or get a move by the time the window shuts. Doesn’t ring true with wanting a small squad really does it.
If you say delap up front
Twine and two wingers first choice
Seri nailed on with bird in a 4-2-3-1

That’s a lot of disgruntled first choices on the bench isn’t it
Oscar Lokilo slater Connolly Vaughn tufan traore and apart from Vaughn slater and lokilo I assume on big money

I did mention him!

Yes, although I think Seri and Bird are too similar to pair and would be like having Seri and Woo together.

Seri will in all likelihood move on next summer as he will about be past it at 33 but still maybe capable of securing one more big contract. Bird will be the long term replacement and think we would phase him into taking Seri’s place in the starting 11 through the first few weeks/months.

Assuming we get Bird of course. Looks like we will pay the ultimate price for being cheapskates and he will be going to Bristol.

Baz saying Twine is the player Acun has been referring to as the top English talent; we're trying to get a winger in on a permanent, AND Rak-Sakiyi on loan. All three deals could be done early next week.

Breakthrough with a GK, and Bird still on the agenda too.

I've found it odd for a while that people didn't latch onto this. Acun basically told us with all the clues he gave. Particularly considering yesterday people were getting excited about an MKM tweet about their new brick mascot and taking it as a hint that we were signing someone 6'5".

Agreed.
 
Christie looks half the player he was last season currently..

Christie does always have a certain nonchalant appearance when he plays and so when the team is not doing well it could be easy to think he is particularly off it. I reckon he will be fine once we get going properly.

Maybe they were hoping it would be someone a lot better than someone who Burnley don’t want in the PL?
I’ve no idea who the **** he is or how good or bad he is
So some one who isn’t playing pl isn’t that blow your socks off for me personally
