Why hasn't he signed for one then? No pre season done. The length you are going to defend him is bizarre to say

Not what I said by the way. I said it's a squad league and you need 24/25 players at this level was my point.. We have signed players by all account that suit how Ismael wants to play. Yes I would like to sign another Szmodics but let's not forget the reaction on here when he signed and how people went out their way to say he was poor signing. How he proved them wrong.. So yes I would pay the money for the highly rated Ethan Pye. And yes I would offer Callum Brittain, Sondre Tronstad and Lewis Travis new long term contracts. We did under JDT and Ismael. Took it to the last day. Mowbray's best season came when he had smaller squad, less options and not overthinking the team selection

Good luck Joe and hope you have a good career post Rovers

So where are all the contract offers from clubs? why is without a club still? I would be gutted if he left. Always been a big fan of him. Rovers should have got the contracts situation of Brittain, Travis, Tronstad sorted 12 months ago.

Football is a squad game nowadays and it is more than just the starting 11 but we are adding what Ismael wanted which is pace and athleticism to this squad. I don't want marquee signings but players who fit into how we want to play Abit like you do every week over Forshaw or other things. Paranoid? 😂 clueless comments. same old comments just a different day yet we have been challenging for playoffs for the past 3 seasons over 4 seasons. I can't give my opinions on these players we signed cos I haven't seen them play and so no I can't give any proper opinion. Rovers seem to be targeting specific qualities in players to suit Ismael's tactics

And? Good bargains out there if you scout for a range of fees like Tronstad on a free or Dolan on a free or Szmodics for 2.5m or Brittain for £1m And? Irrelevant. Its about the quality of player we sign and the fee paid doesn't determine how good the player will be. Some people are more obsessing over the fees than anything else No one comment of player did we

He had his medical yesterday so maybe has shown up in the medical.. No I wouldnt. I think of nominal fee has 50 to 75k. We make some great low cost signings like Samba at 400k, Nzonzi at 500k or Nelsen on a fee. And that was in the PL days

Our budgets is for players that suits how Ismael's style and formation. Football is a squad players. Nominal fee?

Yes

Football clubs are private businesses at the end of the day. I wouldn't swap Uncle Jack's time as Rovers owner for owt, transform the club, town and community. Build us Ewood Park, training ground, academy, etc.. Uncle Jack wasn't the problem one jot. He ran the club professionally and investment in the club exactly how we want our Rovers but in the modern era

Let's hope so. XG? 🤣 I wonder if Ryan Alebiosu will play higher up sometimes on right winger with Brittain at right back. Or targeting players that suits how Ismael wants to play and within our budget. Ismael wanted pace and athleticism in his team for this season. That's what we have signed. Would like to another permanent signing in the Centre back. Then a loan forward and winger

I dont see him playing 3 at the back. When De Neve signed Ismael's comments were he can play as a 11 or 7. That's says 4-2-3-1 to me with plan B being 5-3-2

Yes we know your thoughts and opinions on Forshaw and we all understand your opinion. Do you need to repeat it every week? I would be like Centre defender signing in by now. I am wondering why we have signed/are signing 2 centre midfielder. Hopefully Ismael will update post game on Saturday We got 3 in so far and another tomorrow hopefully. So thats 4 in. Surpassing some people views we wouldnt have any in. On the signings, I never heard of any of them. So looking forward to seeing them playing either on Saturday or next Saturday It's a question we can't answer yet We see in coming weeks but I expect to see Buckley and Garrett to move.

It's a debate you want to time after time. You don't let it drop or moved on from it. Ismael wanted him back, Championship experience and knowledge, squad player, team player. What position would be in? You got championship experience in the keeper, defender and midfield areas. Pears, Brittain, Hyam, Carter, Pickering, Wharton, Hedges, Travis, Tronstad and Ribeiro So would a goalless draw against Hull or Stoke.

We didn't get the playoffs cos of defeats to bottom 6 teams under 2 head coaches. That's the reason why we didn't make the playoffs

We have scouts Neal like Michael Cairney and Piotr Sadowski plus with Adam Owen, Rudy Gestede and Valerien Ismael contacts and knowing people in these countries has help us scouting and finding them players. Yes Sheffield United owners want to introduce AI into their scouting knowledge exactly Paul, Rovers are spending money and that's doesn't fit with the narrative some people want. Still need a right winger, centre back and forward signings. Championship experience? Ismael has made a big pint having athleticism in his team.

Exactly. These are private businesses at the end of the day.

I expect 4-2-3-1 with proper wingers

Horner left for 2 reasons. One, race performances and secondly, Max Vestrappen.

I hope it's right about Callum Brittain has/is set to sign new contract

Yes I would like to spend more money on some signings Point being Nicko has more national contacts and Jackson doesn't. If we are looking overseas Jackson won't have contacts out there. What do you want him to do?

Just reported Rovers set to sign someone tomorrow

sales have help us make that profit instead of the regular season debt
