  1. Not so sure. Overrated manager and they'll have margins go against them at some point as well. Blades are favourites for me, with Leeds a close second. We need players that can hit the ground running and we needed them yesterday, so I'm baffled that we don't have any clear targets that have already joined. But business as usual eh?
  2. Cian Hayes looks like Peterborough's best player.
  3. Morton will be backup for Trav and Tronstad hopefully. I have no issues with us grabbing a defender Coventry paid £4m for not too long ago, but what we need are goalscorers and/or pace.
  4. Calling BS on that one. His contract is expiring in June, so would assume there's no recall option. Just my gut feeling.
  5. We're probably looking at them just taking over his wages. His deal is expiring in June fortunately.
  6. He's cut out for the Swedish league because it's a level or three below the Championship. He has shown glimpses here, but too many injuries and has struggled to nail down a spot here. Good finisher but that's about it.
  7. Six games left to play in January, including the FA Cup fixture this Saturday vs. Boro. We really need someone onboard asap. Wish they would scrap the transfer window, doesn't Jean-Marc Bosman have a son or a daughter?
  8. Trav is out for four more weeks and we won't sign anyone before deadline day anyway, so I would prioritise other positions. We need pace. Schlupp is a good option on loan.
  9. Could see he was fired up after the game and had some words with Scott Parker (knob). Totally feasible story, Eustace definitely has some bite in him. Wish he was going to see John Williams and not Gestede though. Rudi has a lot left to prove.
  10. We're not signing anyone, are we? Haven't even signed a new chief scout...
  11. What was up with the music at full time as well? And who let those clowns take the corner flag?
  12. It also feels as if he doesn't want the pain associated with playing a physical style.
  13. Ohashi with one (?) since September too.
  14. Yeah, and I definitely don't want a repeat of last season.
  15. It's both. Our CB's are definitely slow and slow on the turn, but you make a really good point that I missed in my previous post(s). We're crying out for some pace out wide.
  16. Doing a lot of tracking back and pressing, and our team is so far back when he receives the ball that there aren't many options going forward. But of course he has had a lot of misplaced passes, poor finishing and decision-making as well. It's fine margins. Burnley created one chance that they scored from, whereas we had none up until that point. Only a lot of wasted corner kicks.
  17. I was hoping we would rise to the occasion and try and dictate the game more at our own turf. All our players work their socks off to keep the team-shape and it was obvious that that's where Gueye struggles - hence why Cantwell did the pressing down the middle and decided when we started it. We just can't stand a high line at the moment with no pace but hope Carter is back soon at least. Ideally would like another CB as quick, or quicker, than him for next season. Under JDT we had players roaming around the whole pitch, leaving us in big trouble at the back. But it was also free-flowing and difficult to defend against, and a joy to watch at times. I think we need longer stints in matches where we try and score goals rather than avoid conceding at all cost.
  18. Why did he drag Gueye off when he knew there would be crosses into the box? He wasn't on a card either.
  19. I hope we sell Bucko this window. Him and JRC can go.
  20. I think Gueye is limited but have also been growing increasingly frustrated with Cantwell lately. Think he passes it backwards a lot of the time when he should take control of the ball and move forward. Also a lot of fancy high-risk passes that don't come off. And hardly any goals or assists but we are so slow it's really difficult when we never dictate matches.
  21. We don't have the quality so that's the best way to approach the games. It's mighty frustrating when we lose but we deserved a point here tbf. Tronstad motm. Gueye has to stop giving away cheap fouls close to our own box. No need for it. Must be frustrating being Eustace knowing what he can do with a little more backing in the transfer market.
  22. One PL appearance as a sub and rarely makes the matchday squad.. Think they'll be more than willing to loan him out.
  23. Some good points philipl but if a player such as Godo is our first choice now (would make sense as we just missed out on him on DLD in the summer), then he should've been announced already. What kind of characters do we want/need to gel with the squad? More grafters similar or better than the ones we have or others who perhaps are more raw but offer something different offensively? Some big calls that has to be made... I'm worried that Gestede will control who comes in and they won't be ready for action, and that's also why JE has emphasised that he wants proven Championship experience.
