He needs to stop playing big names like Mings and Coutinho and start Chambers and Buendia. Simple as that. 

We're lucky to have him, he will be a big player for us in coming years. Right now, we should keep him in the squad and he can be a great option to bring off the bench and also a rotation option for Cash. 

Watkins should leave if there is a choice between him and Ings as he will attract a larger fee, given his age. Ings is a shade better and is proven to link up well with Emi B. 

Chambers-Carlos is, and should be our starting CB partnership. Mings is the bigger name and has an arguably stronger "presence" on the pitch than Chambers so he will probably start ahead of him. Chambers is a goal threat, excellent in defence and has a great pass on him, as we saw last season. Quickly becoming my favourite player. 

If the match isn't called off at half time we need to sub off one of the strikers, bring on Luiz or Buendia and change our shape slightly because its just not working. 

What's the point of having two strikers if we can't get the ball up to them? Our midfield is dire.

Okay, you got me there! Wasn't sure if he and Doug had played together but there's the proof

Don't know anything about him but good to have someone at the club who Diego Carlos knows already.

Might not start every match but certainly an explosive option from the bench, should we keep him. 

Wise move to bring in a competent player on loan to act as back up to a strong first team defender. He will be better than having Young as second choice LB and at the same time put the money we would have spent on a perm signing and put it in into a high quality central midfielder and maybe a striker. 

You could sing his whole name as a chant to  the opening bit of the Fingermouse theme...

The announcement says the Home kit will be unveiled ahead of the Australia tour so I can only assume we will turn up against Walsall in our away strip. 

Glad we're not in for Oxtail-Chambermaid. 

Time for Axle Tuanzebe to make a return.... 

Well done Wales, first time in a World Cup since 1958 and very well deserved. 

Funny thing is that Nyland and Kalinic are full internationals too. Olsen doesn't exactly inspire confidence but he's likely be a lot better than the other two. 

Anyone think QPR will go for him now that Beale is there? Or is there a chance he might go back to Preston? Can't see him being part of our squad just yet. One more full season in the Championship will do him good. 

Love how the club have blocked out any sign of Kappa from the announcement post. 

I used to work with one of the assistant coaches at QPR (Matt Gardiner) when had a normal job about 15 years ago. Might have to put in a non-threatening word with him about this 

I wonder if this was a red herring now that the Carlos deal is pretty much done. 

Anyone know what his conversion rate is? Seems like he puts away 1 in 5 chances or something similar. 

I hope the ref is going to be celebrating 3 well earned points tonight. 

We need someone to elevate the profile of the club and he is a massive global star. On paper he's easily our best player. If we can sign him early on and manage him well during the off season and give him a good preseason we should see an improvement in his performances.

Axel who???
