Hank Scorpio Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 You know it's bad when Pete Colley hasn't even bothered to go down Bodymoor. He's in his yellow pyjamas at home readying himself for the final hours super League six transfer wankfest with that Kaviar bloke blowing his wad over any rumors to do with any of those teams. **** off.

dudevillaisnice Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 I’d still be disappointed if we didn’t get a DM in. Doesn’t look likely either. Shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's even worse than that as Sky sacked him years ago. They decided the whole of the Midlands (west and east) needs only 1 reporter. Also, every single London PL team has their own dedicated reporter. As do the North West clubs. Scum. Sub-human scum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not shocked the midlands is a backwater of football to the rest of the country, except Leicester. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zhan_Zhuang Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 2 hours ago, DCJonah said: That didn't happen in the previous 2 prem games. I think the negativity over our midfield is OTT. If anything it's stronger than last season. It's still our weak point in the squad but its not as bad as people make out. One might argue it actually did with Watford's second goal; Dennis just ran right through the middle of us and laid the ball to Sarr. I was merely picking up on the fact our midfield was an issue last season and we have yet to strengthen the central positions; hopefully we don't need to. But I have my reservations. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomaszk Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 West Ham signing a holding mid and an attacking mid. Good for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be disappointed if we sign all of them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rino8 Posted August 31, 2021 Visiting Supporter Share Posted August 31, 2021 Are you suprised there's been no other business this window? Do you think you need more?

jacketspuds Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Look how quickly that deal for Alex Kral to West Ham cropped up. Selling clubs are getting a bit more desperate to shift players, leading to some occasions where asking prices are lower. Maybe we are looking to take advantage of that somewhere. You never know.

PieFacE Posted August 31, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted August 31, 2021 I think it's pretty evident that we're done. Ultimately, it might not be such a bad thing. Whilst it may feel like a missed opportunity due to the state of football with covid, it gives us a season to get used to life without Jack, find our weaknesses and then have even more financial muscle next season to improve the squad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The midfield was an issue at times when we played with 3 in there. If we're playing Ings and Watkins, it would suggest we would play 2 CM's in some games. I can't think of any combination of our current midfielders that I'd play in a 2 man midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think every opposition manager, fans and pundits in the PL know our weaknesses. I think we're well past " finding our weaknesses " stage. It's the addressing them but that's the problem.
