I think Ben White, Martin Odegaard, Aaron Ramsdale and Thomas Pratley were good signing last summer plus signing Gabriel Jesus and Oleksandr Zinchenko add to the squad now.

Football is a business at times. I don't expected them to be in the top 4 last season and I think they will be challenging for that 4th Spot with Chelsea and Manchester United. Expect Spurs to finish 3rd with Liverpool and Manchester City fighting it out for the league title. The club have spent plenty of last season and this summer. He has to gel it together going forward

How can I disagree with JDT before he even pick the team sheet for Saturday yet?

So you reach that judgement without watching any of it then? We will have have quality squad by the end of window of new signings and players promote from the under 23. A good balance approach as I like to say. We signed 3 players and I would expect a couple more signings. Only 28 days to go now to the transfer window ending. Well that was down to Mowbray and his team selection. Plus tactics and how he set up the midfield and formation.

yep I said That the team I think JDT will pick. Its not the team I would pick and if you want me to posted the team I would I will so gladly.

Arsenal have backed Arteta with a clear plan and transfer strategy and they stuck by him and the Strategy even tho they have been some very disappointing and uncomfortable moments. He has made a couple of quality signings in Jesus and Zinchenko both from City.

firstly, looking to the new PL season and I think going to be very entertaining and interesting from a natural. On the Ten Hag and Ronaldo situation, I think he will leave United before the deadline possible for Sporting If United pay him off leaving him a free.

They lost the head coach and 2 of their best players to Forest. Plus they are suffering a hangover from their playoff lost which is sometimes normal at this leve;

I still don't they will do as well as you and others think so. Cornet is going West Ham now, They lost several good players. They will be tougher test to come now

Given that you don't watch any of the under 23's and 18's games I don't know how you judge whether any of these young players like Sam Barnes, Ash Phillips, Jack Vale, Jake Garrett or Adam Wharton are ready for playing championship football. From reading JDT's comments today that Sam Barnes would have been around the first squad this season, Jack Vale started the the first game and did decent enough for me(disagree if you want) and its appears that JDT will keep Jake Garrett and Adam Wharton around the first squad and fill the roles of Johnson and Davenport filled last season. We replaced Rothwell by John Buckley dropping back into that Role and Tyler Morton replaced Clarkson from last season.

Given JDT's comments in the pre match press conference I think Sammie Szmodics will start. His comments seems exactly what he wants his number 10 to do. So here the team I think he will pick Kaminski Brittain Ayala S.Wharton Pickering Travis Buckley Hedges Szmodics Brereton Diaz Dolan Subs:- Pears, Phillips, Edun, Morton, Gallagher, Vale, Markanday

No. They will only get that by playing games Paul

We dont know what the fee is. You make a couple of valid but I'm sure Rovers would have done proper scouting, background checks on him. Let's see how he performs in a blue and white shirt now Maybe Rovers don't rate him as highly as you do. I don't know why you this window is poor when we upgrade at right back, sign a talent centre midfielder and number 10 that suits JDT style. Why? Is he any better than Tyler Morton?

Rovers would extensive scouting him by using scouting tools like Wyscout, etc plus also watching him live in a number of games at the stadium. JDT would have watch videos of him and If he happy with him then he would give his authorisation to sign him. Plus Rovers would have background checks on the player. Alot of work goes on into scouting and recruiting players.

Scott Parker wants new signings and it appears Bournemouth board haven't supply the money. They signed Marcus Tavernier who might be decent at this level

totally agree Joe Well it was to plenty of other people like myself, @JoeH or @Vilesinner

Gyokeres would be very good replacement for BBD and he will be main 9 with Vale and Gallagher other options for that role IMO Morton wouldn't replace Buckley or Travis unless their form dips but he will have plenty of game time here cos how we play as team under JDT Gutted for Sam Barnes if true

This is one of the main points I have been making over the past of couple of days. I don't see JDT adapting or changing his style of play or tactics for one player. He has clear way of playing and I believe he will stick to it. I don't think he should either. he played right back last weekend I believe

is he number 10 player who has the attributes JDT wants in the player for that role?

Because these sorts of injuries take a hit on the body and IMO he will never been the same player as 2 and half years which you and others are basing your opiion on You keep talking about the old pre injury Dack not the one now after 2 major injuries. Its the now and future that matters You yet again keep saying our best player which is based on 2 and half years ago performances not now and under a different head coach who wants the team to play very different to Mowbray. JDT wants to very different style of play and structure different to Mowbray. Anyway I will leave it there cos it feels like we going around in circles.

Didn't Rovers and fitness coach Liam Mason give Dack a mini pre season when he retuned last season? You mention those games but it was Mowbray who put us in those poor position by picking the wrong team(again) and formation. Last season is last season, Its about now and whether his game and fitness can fit into how we want to play now under our new head coach JDT and surely we shouldn't change that style of play just for Dack

There is zero point in talking about the Dack from 2 and years ago cos its pointless and he has had 2 major injuries and I don't think he is the same old Dack. He will have adapt his game. Its about his work rate and fitness now not from 2 and half years ago. Dack is still recovering from these major injuries and I don't ever think he will the same old Dack but he will have adapt his game which is only natural after such major injuries. I don't know if Dack will fit into JDT style of play and what he wants from his front 4 so the question is Can Dack fit into that and does he have the fitness levels to play that role and the attributes he wants from the front 4? very childish comments cos its all part of the role and what is required from the front 4. Athleticism is one of the attributes along with work rate, movement, pressing aswell as creating chances and scoring goals. If Dack can't press the same as other 3 in the front 4 why would you pick him cos the opposition would know he wouldn't and use that as weakness in our pressing game? You keep saying we got a bloody good player but that based on performances from over 2 and half years ago. Here a question for you, If JDT decided that Dack doesn't fit in how he wants his team would you want JDT to adapt his style of play and his principles on how he wants his team to play just for one player? Its about players movement, roam and interchanging positions in the final third and not being stick to certain area of the pitch like under Mowbray time. Its not about Versatile like under Mowbray. These are 2 very different thing.
