Should of getting a centre mid in on loan atleast today. As joelinton cannot keep playing every minute of every game he'll end up breaking down. He covers so much ground it's an injury waiting to happen. 

The main glut of games come after the World Cup, by which time January will be close and most of our players will have had the World Cup to rest.

Don’t think we’ll regret it. 13 games until January. 
 

I trust the people at the top for the first time in my lifetime. Howe, Ashworth, Eales, Nickson, Staveley etc. If they’re not doing a deal then there’s a damn good reason why.

Course we won’t it’s like football manager on here, half this lot wouldn’t know how to run a burger van.

One more bit of quality in another right-sided attacker forces those two firmly out of the picture save for maybe cups or 3-4 bad injuries. I think we've done brilliantly this summer but not busting a gut to get one more in, even on loan, feels like a missed opportunity to me. 


Again thiugh it’s going to take time, they’ve clearly got a group of players they’ve all agreed they like and they’ve waited patiently to get them without panicking and brining bodies in for the sake of it. As the club develops and the squad gets stronger, you’ll be buying 2 or 3 players a season instead of needing 5 or 6 everytime. 
 

Trust them, they’ve given us no reason not too until this point. Can’t turn 14 years of shit around in two windows.

Fair enough just it's a risk and I don't think we are as effective with big Joe out of the team.

Think any regret for me is how "close" we are to being even more competitive. If Europe was a possibility with another 60/70m spent now does that not make more sense than doing it over this and next season.  Obviously all hyperthetical of course.

I don't think they want to add too many players in one go. If the RW and midfielder positions were sorted as we would like, then we'd be looking at a first XI with max 3 of the 'old guard', ASM, Joelinton and Schar?.

 

That would be mad to pull off in two windows, not sure how our current players would like it suddenly all being bench/squad players. Don't care though, get em in!!

We needed another midfield / forward option. To have the likes of Jacob Murphy, Ritchie and Wood as our main reserves is poor. It’s like going down to 10 men when one of them is on the pitch.

 

 

They are banking on Wilson and Isak both being fit at any given time, which would redule that liklehood.

Except Howe himself said that he hoped that they could enhance the squad even more.

Aye, but all of a sudden the Pedro deal was off and look what happened.

 

If this right back deal has appeared to have fallen through then maybe we'll be getting the modern day equivalent of Cafu (sorry, nee idea who is a good right back these days).

What did? Genuine question, I've paid little attention over the last few hours.

If Trippier gets injured it could be dicey. Manquillo to the rescue I guess.

Murphy back to RB :harry:

This is exactly it. While there might be some disappointment, with the shortened first half of the season there is no real need to panic grab anyone if we can take the time working deals from now until the January window to bring reinforcements then. A loan or two until January would have been nice but few people are willing to do that to premiership clubs.

Think he means we signed Isak.

 

Not sure his timeline is quite right, mind.

You think right. Think my timeline is right, but I mainly go off what I read on here so might be a little out.
