Would’ve took a point away at Preston but seeing the news of Will Keane being out, I really think we can take all 3 points. Play like we did away at Birmingham and we’ll give ourselves a good chance.
I did dream we lost 9-0 or 9-1 last night, mind.
Never did I ever think Fornah would be compared to Claude Makelele!
He was shite for us. But to be fair, it was the season before he was with you, during covid. 35 games in the Championship last season as well.
Naturally we were more on the back foot but our back four, particularly Scarr, Gibson and Earley were fantastic.
You had a couple big chances particularly Bayo going through in the last few mins, but so did we. Randell should have scored in the second half.
About as good and competitive 0-0...
You mean Baxter, the 24 y/o goalkeeper who’s had loans at 6 clubs ranging from non league, Scotland and the Championship will suddenly become a £15 million pound keeper? Definitely not an improvement mate.
It’ll be interesting to see if Gibson is a starter, we’ve got 3 left footed centre backs now, Gillesphey, Galloway and Gibson. We do need another right footer, which could be Taylor, but I doubt he’d get in over Pleguezuelo from Fc Twente straight away.
I’d probably try and fit Pleggy in the starting 11 if possible. Still think the left back area looks weak if we’re playing a 4. The back up to Miller is a player who was a squad player last season in Saxon Earley. I’m also not sure Miller has enough about him defensively.
Definitely need a new...
Interestingly we’ve been trying out a 4 back in pre-season with inverted fullbacks. Can’t see Mumba fitting in there.
Weirdly his best position is left wing back. His dribbling and pace just beats defenders, playing right wing back he’s got to have the pace + strength to get the better of his...
Currently linked loosely with four players:
Supposed to be after Connor Taylor from Stoke.
Apparently in for Lewis Warrington from Everton.
Finn Azaz heavily rumoured to be coming back.
And this evening Bali Mumba best mate has hinted at his return here on Twitter.
Schuey wants six...
Do you think we need a couple players with Championship experience? Saw a chart yesterday saying we’ve got the youngest squad in the division.
I‘d like us to go for Lucas Joao, still a free agent.
I liked Camara in L1, his energy is very Kante like. He doesn’t stop. However he just has no technical ability when it comes to the final 3rd. He’d win the ball in his own half, gallop past 3 defenders, get within 25 yards and hit it 5 yards over the bar.
Not good enough for the Championship...
