  1. Stansfield, Baker, Dembele and Ruddy. Plus Iversen and Rushworth
  2. haven't they got enough English players to fill quota given their amount of English players already in the squad
  3. Eustace isn't trying to get his old Birmingham squad back together, But Eustace wants a couple of players who he has worked with. He wants Ruddy cos he knows him and what he can offer and trust him. Ruddy isn't my choice but I can understand his reasons why he wants. My choice would be Daniel Iversen. On Dembele, It someone who He knows and signed last summer for his old club. He has the attributes we want for a wide player we need but whether he is the right fit I don't know enough on his form there. On Stansfield, Its a no brainer for me, He is quality player and even if it just a loan for 12 months I would deffo take it. On Baker, I wouldn't be paying £2.5 mil for someone with 12 months left on his deal or willing to part with Travis as part of any deal or sell him to fund this move. Also we need a left back signing before the window shuts.
  4. Heckingbottom's appointment could go either way. He played 3 at the back at Sheffield United so fits their squad currently there. He's not the manager I would have appointed there but I can understand why they have chosen him tho.
  5. Firstly, thanks for sharing the info with everyone. I was reading an article on the Athletic with Liverpool former head of data analysis Ian Graham during Rodgers and Klopp time there and the way Rodgers wanted certain players and he had to accept certain signings plus didn't embrace data analysis whilst Klopp did and trusted other people opinions on players like Michael Edwards, Barry Hunter and Dave Fallows Liverpool’s recruitment secrets – revealed by the man who helped shape it - The Athletic (nytimes.com) This situation reminds of this. I can understand Eustace wanted players he has worked with before like Dembele, Stansfield and Ruddy but he has to trust Park, Gestede and Owen to bring in the right players. They have brought in Gueye and Yuki who looked very good signings so far. As they worked more together then the trusts built. I think we should be able to find a keeper who is good shot stopper, good communication skills, can command their area and organise a defence. Park, Gestede and Owen need to decide on a shortlist of 3 keepers then present them to Eustace and all decide on their 1st, 2nd and 3rd choice. We shouldn't be signing Ruddy for me.
  6. Monchi wasn't happy with the PSR rules at PL level Monchi sends PSR demand to Premier League after Aston Villa forced into transfer action (msn.com)
  7. sore loser? over what? I haven't lost anything? Always blaming Rovers. So if that your understanding why hasn't Alan Nixon or Elliott Jackson or SSN reported it? nothing got reported by any one of these people. Ipswich mess us around for days/weeks. Just like Luton did with Kaminski or Southampton with Armstrong
  8. No way would I been selling Travis for any price. I don't think Eustace would have made him captain if we wanted to sell him
  9. Yes I remember that article Rovers did but we also brought in a set pieces expert after Eustace came in
  10. Former Rovers player with a valid opinion.
  11. Delap is shite. I have watched him since breaking through and he isn't good. 8 goals in 31 games for Hull and Ipswich paid 20m for that striker. The football world has gone mad, just like the fees being paid for young players in the PL and what clubs are paying for unproven talents and selling their best young players for PSR rules. Do a little research and listen to Villa Sporting Director interview on Talksport this week Couldn't give a shit what Ipswich local media stuff is saying. Ipswich knew the price and mess us around for weeks. Ipswich could have got it 2 weeks earlier. Bias for Ipswich side of the story. Nicko told us for weeks what the problem was, you didnt. Rovers held firm and rightly so we did
  12. Mercer, yet again, football has move on from those days, sadly you are stuck in the past and that's 30 ears ago plus
  13. Delap come on better in the last year? Based on what?
  14. Well they didn't get a bargain when they overpaid for Muric, Delap and Hutchison did they? Also that's Former Rovers player Kevin Gallacher opinion.
  15. What is needed is good set of scouts, but also a head of scouting and recruitment with a range of contacts
  16. Well its felt like weeks lets be honest, you are very quick to blame for moving the goal posts but no one has reported this, but Ipswich knew the fee we wanted and given what they have spend on Delap who Szmodics out scored 4 to 1 last season and they spend 10m on Muric who is awful. They should have re sign Hladky instead. They have got a bargain for £10m for Szmodics. Kevin Gallacher on Saturday during his commentary on radio Lancs bemoaning the fee we recieved saying it should be much higher for the championship and FA cup top scorer
  17. I would like to see a change of GK coach and Lowe remove as first team coach here. I would like to see Bobby Mimms come back as GK coach and us appointed a permanent set pieces coach in place of Lowe.
  18. Oxford are decent team but its a game at home that we should be winning for me. I go 2 nil. Our first clean sheet of the season
  19. I would bring back Bobby Mimms myself.
  20. Well done to Bohely for the job he has done on Chelsea. Chelsea first team players is 43 players, yes 43 players. Woah. Plus 5 managers within 2 years and no real strategy in terms apart from buying talent players. No team cohesion. Given the money they have spend, no proper number 9 striker.
  21. it will be Park, Gestede, Eustace and Owen who do
  22. Most players will have niggles throughout a season and will play games with them. Indian court case has been a factor for the last 12 months but this summer, we seen some smart transfer moves like Ohashi, Gueye and Weimann have improve our team and I am expecting more this last 12 days of the window. I am fully aware of Silva's comments on him thanks as I have said previously but things can change like a striker gets offer to them on the last week of the transfer window and they go and sign him, will further reduced his playing time there and he asks for a move away Nixon bullshit? Got the Batth, Gueye and Weimann coming here spot on. Plus every backroom change right. Yes you told about Ipswich in for Szmodics about 12 to 18 hours before Nixon ran the story so yes you were right they wanted him and bid for him, but also you said it would be done weeks before it was done.
  23. Firstly, JRC is carrying an injury but playing through it. Good on him. In all fairness, he has played 2 games there so far. Give it more time and let him get fit but he isn't playing wide but cutting more inside and allowing Brittain to play wide.
  24. But the chance of playing regular and first team football over sitting in Leicester reserves tho? decision to be made there I am fully aware of Silva's comments but situations can change in transfer window.
