True I think its regarded as one of the greatest title wins though. I really don't get the big deal. We had decent resources, we gave huge money in wages to some players and got 17 pts. IMO that's so much worse that the others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 (edited) When is McGinn back? A month and a half or 2 months? What I'm thinking is he could actually cover or occupy a place in the front 3 in place of either Trez or El Ghazi, Hell, I wouldn't put it past McGinn to be able to cover as Wingback! Drinkwater should be up to speed also. Let's be honest, if McGinn was fit during our striker crisis, we really could have even used him as a striker.

TheStagMan Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 8 minutes ago, DCJonah said: Crazy. We've just let the defender that's been on our bench last few games leave whereas teams like palace and chelsea keep their squad depth. Damn them. We will have to put the defender who wasn't on our bench (who is arguably better), on our bench instead then. You know, the one who has actually played, and played quite well in the premier league this season, versus the one who has 0 minutes under his belt. What on earth were they thinking???? I have no problems with letting Chester go. I wish him all the best and hope he gets to the Euros. He owes us nothing and we owe him a significant debt. Letting him go is the honorable thing to do. Also - think of the issues a pissed off/miserable Chester may cause in the dressing room. Letting him go out on loan is the best decision all round. As others have pointed out, we have plenty of options in this area if we pick up injuries and it will take a significant amount of injuries/bad luck to get to the point where we are stuffed. Yes, it would be nice to bring someone in, but I don't think it is critical. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbie09 Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Without signing a defender and a striker we’re a red card or injury away from a potential crisis. I’d rather we didn’t take the risk but it looks unlikely we’re going to add to the squad today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fingers crossed we don't have any of those injuries, suspensions and players losing form issues you read about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually agree with you. We fell from a much greater height, so while not statistically the worst side ever, ours was a 'worse' relegation. (Though Sunderland have stunk the place out quite a few times.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a 6 month loan like the one Sheffield did would be good as we are woefully thin in certain positions. Obviously it's not that particular player I'd be interested in.
