Most have said they appreciate the importance of hard work and defending right. So, why this comment? How would you react if I said 'we would have 10 Roy keanes if it was left to some'? It's not fair on other people who have differing views to criticise their opinion in this backhanded, sly way. Oh come on you must have seen the same calls I did in the summer it was a never ending precession of strikers we needed.. You are being way too harsh on him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are being way too harsh on him. Really? We were linked to many strikers, not all were wanted and there certainly wasn't calls to sign them all. That's just hyperbole. You can't blame the medias links on the club or fans? The only time there were calls to sign an extra one, I guess, would be rashica. To add strength to the attack line. I'd still argue to high heaven we need that now. I would also agree that depth is needed in the back line to faze out hause and Taylor for starters. But, we are a work in progress clearly. It's not really any of this that is the issue, it's the comment about wanting 10 Grealishs when if anyone makes a similar comment toward the other way. It's jumped on.

You are being way too harsh on him. I noticed he didn't mention any of OUR defenders and resorted to "Roy Keane" for folk to understand his point. Paul, he is right about opinions, but he soon picks me up, when he drives his point home. I am particularly perturbed in the shortage of players in our team with natural defensive tendencies.....players who feel comfortable in disrupting and shutting out opponents. I don't rate Nakamba at all, another ball watcher for me. Edited November 24, 2020 by TRO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't rate Nakamba at all, another ball watcher for me. He’s not that bad in my opinion, not up to standard but he could be useful. My prediction of LB CB And DCM is based on numbers and need. DCM is the one that would add to the first team taking McGinns place in the team. It isn’t a slight on him, he is a box to box midfielder who could play ACM where Barclay is currently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be shocked if we are back in for him, especially as it looked like he was signing for Bayer Leverkusen on deadline day. He would have moved there but ran out of time to get the deal done. I think we moved on from Rashica when we signed Bertrand Traore. Unless we shift El Ghazi or send Davis on loan then I don't see us bringing in any further strikers into our squad.

TRO Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 (edited) There must be posters on here more atuned to whats happening in the Bundesliga. seems like his form has deserted him, from what I here, or has his injury, curtailed it. we need to be careful. ps but another offensive player, how many do we want?

smg Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Should have a look at that Atalanta keeper tonight looked quite tidy....... oh no wait a min we had him years ago , load of s..t not good enough for the prem, let’s buy / loan numerous other keepers before we’re happy. Should we have been more smart here ? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of them because if we have them all then no other team has a chance to do any attacking I'm not saying we play them all just that we don't allow the other teams to have any. Solid plan IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
