Re: NO SIGNINGS
That’s not fair, it’s 3, I rated Jackett, he just wasn’t as good as JE or RW and able to get more from the group of players he was given.

Shame someone isn't able to discern between losing one's sh*t and being slightly perturbed that Lingy appears to be dragging his feet yet again.

7 in 6 years is decent.

Re: NO SIGNINGS
I wish we could move on Pigott who so far has been a complete flop .gshaw wrote: ↑Mon Jan 15, 2024 7:13 pmThe thing is there's a big difference in quality between starting Agyei and Forde than Pigott and Sotiriou. On the Theo front as RW said there is no backup for him at present.Cheshunto wrote: ↑Mon Jan 15, 2024 11:57 am Saturday’s great performance may persuade Lingy and the board that the current strike force is good enough to sustain us until the summer. Agyei , Forde and Theo were excellent on Saturday but if one or two of them get injured then we are Fcuked and so we do need to bring one or two in, and includes a wide man.
Personally I think we do have enough to stay in this league, but while we have a chance of a play off spot I think we should give Richie everything he needs.
More surprising we haven't moved any out the other way yet as it's been repeated we need to move players out to get ones in.

Re: NO SIGNINGS
I keep thinking he might come good but then I can’t seem to find what he would be good at. He’s not a natural finisher, his hold up play was put to shame by Agyei, he doesn’t win many if any headers, he’s got no pace.

Re: NO SIGNINGS
He's obviously got technical talent. Can play a lot of one touch passes, has quick feet, brings players into the game quite well. For whatever reason I still think there's a decent player in there who's just massively short on confidence and playing in a set up that doesn't suit him.
I wouldn't put him in that hall of shame category of no.9s who look like total donkeys but it's obviously not working here.

But he doesn't fit our system, either in possession or out of it. I just don't understand why we signed him other than total desperation.

Re: NO SIGNINGS
I just don't think he's playing with any confidence - I'm not sure if he is a 9 or a 10 but not done very much that catches the eye in either position to justify a starting spot - yet. I'm hoping he comes good I guess time will tell.Mistadobalina wrote: ↑Tue Jan 16, 2024 11:40 am He's obviously got technical talent.

Re: NO SIGNINGS
Could see him and Ruel working as a pair as it happens. But front 2s are from the olden days.Top of the JES wrote: ↑Tue Jan 16, 2024 12:16 pmI just don't think he's playing with any confidence - I'm not sure if he is a 9 or a 10 but not done very much that catches the eye in either position to justify a starting spot - yet.
