Nobody Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Personally think that Sels has been the only poor buy. Everyone else has either been a success, contributed, or is backing up as they should be. Think I'd go along with that. Jury is very much out on Gamez and Lazaar, bar them I agree. Considering the limited time he had to scout and find players who were willing to drop down to the Championship and the ridiculous amount of players we needed, he did a fantastic job in the summer IMO Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 I see Gamez as a sort of old head and backup tbh, I'm still not sure whether Lazaar was meant as a starter or whether Rafa tested both out and Dummett nailed the place down.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Sometimes someone doesn't play because others are playing well, doesn't mean they were necessarily a bad signing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 I haven't said anything about bad signings. If we had another "homerun" of a signing on the wings or 10 we would be running away with the league already. Instead we seem to have steady,productive but not really top options in those areas Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering the limited time he had to scout and find players who were willing to drop down to the Championship and the ridiculous amount of players we needed, he did a fantastic job in the summer IMO This - one of the reasons why I haven't been tempted to criticize Rafa. Unfortunately, the team needs more surgery than he could manage in the summer but I am confident that if anyone can persuade decent players to step into the championship, he can That is what we need to hope over the next few weeks. Getting players to sign IF we get promotion will not be a major problem for him if the club support him with wages etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

buzza Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 The positions where we have been lacking are no10 and on the wing. For the squad we need cover for shelvey and hayden. Any buys that will strengthen these will make us a lot stronger... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiseman Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Just reread the start of this thread and how much disbelief we had at the rumours. It's amazing how much the attitude has changed in the short period since he arrived and the work he has done with us, you wouldn't know it's the same club anymore Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
