Ings is a real problem for Smith. And it might be his downfall.
-
Garbage
-
Almost as hilariously predictable as this post. People are allowed to like Dean Smith and still criticise when he gets things wrong. I really want him to do well but can accept when he gets things wrong.
-
We’ll be closer to the bottom of the table than to the top. Thread is fair.
-
Ings and Buendia have been rubbish.
-
A lot of work needed still. But then, we all knew that didn’t we? Lol at the people thinking we just need one midfielder. Our owners want to progress and we’re going backwards.
-
Gonna be a little bit more difficult to replace Grealish having lost to Watford. El Ghazi. Lol.
-
We’re crap. But no surprise really.
-
We still need to replace Grealish.
-
Lol, came here to post something similar. You’ll know when he’s 6 weeks away from returning because he’ll be ‘back out on the grass’. Sanson took a knock a while back and may never play again.

--------------------------Ings---------------------------- Watkins------------------------------------Buendia ------------------Chukwuemeka-------------------- --------------McGinn--------Nakamba------------ -------------------------------------------------------------- Targett--------Mings----Konsa-----------Cash ------------------------Martinez------------------------ I don't want El Ghazi anywhere near the side tbh. He's been poor in pre-season and is largely poor whenever he plays. If Watkins is out, I'd play Young on the left. Failing that, JPB.
-
There is also massive risk that comes with not improving and that is the likes of Martinez, Konsa etc. leaving to chase success and trophies. We need to improve quickly if we don't want the 'bigger' clubs sniffing around.
-
It's a fair point and my viewpoint is very crude. Of course you can have a negative net spend and improve if one player goes for 100m. I'm just saying, the general rule of thumb is, you need to spend to improve. And as things stand, I think we need two more bodies and the youngsters need to go out on loan.
-
Yep, it's a 5/10 transfer window for me atm. We haven't gone forwards (because of Grealish) and we haven't gone backwards. We've done enough to stand still, perhaps finish 1 or 2 places higher but what's the difference in finishing 11th-->9th? Bugger all really. Either the board and management team know what we have isn't enough and we'll bring in two more players. Or.. They think what we have is enough to challenge for Europe. If it's the latter, they're in for a rude awakening. It's VERY difficult to progress when you have a negative net spend.
-
Staggering to think he's still anywhere near the first XI considering we've spent £250m since being promoted or whatever it is. I expect very little when he starts.
-
Yeh, that is kind of where I'm at.
-
Perhaps ‘no chance’ is a tad strong but no, I don’t think we’re quite there yet tbh. We’re very close, I’ll just be very confused if we don’t add another 2 starters to this side, especially as we’re currently in net profit this Summer. I don’t rate players like El Ghazi or Traore so mentioning them as squad players is fine but they’re both largely poor in most of the games they play.
-
Bidace and Chuk should really be out on loan for me. No need to rush them through. Hopefully I’m completely wrong and they’re both ready now!
-
I think the league has changed slightly and the gap between the top and bottom has widened. Teams like Watford, Newcastle, Norwich, Brentford, Southampton, Burnley will all struggle this season and therefore teams will take more points from them. I don’t see us getting anywhere near Europe with our current side tbh. Hopefully I’m proven wrong!
-
If Bailey doesn’t come in and play very well from the off, we’ll be very reliant on Buendia, just like we were with Grealish. I just don’t buy into the idea that we’ve improved all that much. We’ve probably done enough to replace Grealish’ output but how much have we actually improved? We still need a couple more players - DMC and AMC with Sanson and McGinn fighting it out to play as the 8. That’s the way I see it anyway.
-
The club have probably done enough to stand still and perhaps finish 1 or 2 places higher than last season with the transfer business we’ve done to date. No chance we challenge for Europe with this squad and I have a feeling the Grealish loss and the failure to improve on last seasons team will hit home around 5pm tomorrow. There are still three weeks of the window left so plenty of time to sign a couple more players. Will reserve judgement until then.
-
that’s only because he couldn’t be bothered to track back!
-
Danny Ings is a striker, not a no.10
-
Surely Al Hilal are interested.
-
This guy has been right about a few things previously..
