I actually think the 'we need a defensive midfielder' argument is a myth.
We have two defensive in midfielder's in Whelan and Jedinak, both aren't what we need.
Sorry but there are DM's who aren't 35 ,can actually move around the pitch can play a pass while having a physical presence.

Probably 5 key spots on the team needed addressing GK, LB,RB,CB and CDM . We addressed 2 of them in GK and CB. Weakened RB and weakened our wingers also as we replaced an inconsistent Bolasie with a constantly injured Green. Keeping Tammy was certainly our best business.

Not a DM at all. Played on left side of mid 3 in 433 mostly from memory or inside left mid in 352
Sorry for my grammar but that's what I meant. "Not a DM which is what we needed."

This lad is not a DM like we needed . It will be very like Playing Hourihane in the deep role having Tom Carroll back there.
-
Just went from a meh window to a shocking one. Don't rate Carroll at all and weakened our FB situation.

And all of those players are now playing at a far higher level than us currently. Just shows what a monumental cock up that season was. You'd feel unwell if you spent too long thinking about it.
Not saying you're not right but after today Leandro Bacuna is playing at a higher level than us currently. Let that sink in. Just show's how far we've fallen.

Starting to get a bit late in the day. Fairly disappointing window so far. Certainly don't seemed to have signed the players to push us on to the playoffs anyway. Hopefully one or 2 not mentioned still to come in. But doubtful.

Would mean a left back is still in the pipeline hopefully...now this id like!
Or else we are happy enough with Taylor(please no). Reading between the lines in the article(sorry don't know how to post it on the phone) it's like Taylor's dip away from form since Smith's first few games is being put down to Chesters injury!!!!

Matt Kendrick claims Mimgs is coming in as a CB rather than a LB , to take over from the injured Chester. Going straight into Saturdays squad.So we'd go into Reading with Elphick and Mings as a partnership.

No excuse for this and the Swansea performances. Results narenone thing but the way we have played is as bad as we've ever been.

Don't have the players with Grealish and Tuanzebe out to be honest.
I disagree. At 2-0 up at have time you have to see it out.

Saying the goals were his fault is far too easy on whelan and hourihane
hes not great but not as bad as people are making out either
People making an excuse on here for Nyland for the first goal saying he was imeaded. The foul on Whelan was far more obvious and made it practically impossible get to the back post in time following it .
-
Corner swings past him 2 yards out. Refuses to come for it. Pulls Birmingham players shirt and throws himself on the ground looking for a free. Change him at HT.
-
He did put Grealish's goal on a plate for him with some lovely footwork and a textbook slide pass. But his finishing is slightly off right now. Still think he is a top player.
-
Can't play on the left for me as I'm not sure yet if his final delivery is just sh**e or he purposely gives it bad to try and make other front men look poor. Has looked like both of those at times. Also sick of attempted smashed volleys straight from a cross go 20 yards over when a header back across the goal or would suffice.

My word. Possibly the worst Keeper I've ever seen play professional football.

Any chance we can go back to the tax man and ask about that winding up order? Shocking performance. Toothless.

Too many overpaid primadonnas sadly.

Not helped by the fact he’s pretty much been playing right back.
No but you expect the top players grab the game by the scruff of the neck, demand and put their foot on the ball and control things a bit. Not seen anything of that.
-
Been poor tonight. Need your big players to step up on nights like this but all he has done is get booked for pettiness. Looks more a luxury player than a lynchpin this season so far.
-
Yea. That's it. I'm done. Terrible selection again tonight. RHM up front on his own and lumping balls forward with no other options on the bench. Get the f##k out Bruce.

The reason he actually got on so much ball was because baggies actually let him have it as a tactic. They didn't bother close him down or cover him when he was in a dangerous position with the ball because they knew he could do absolutely nothing with it. It says it all when a 30 year old professional footballer with over 300 football league games ,playing as an attacking fullback for a lot of that time has 0 senior career goals.
