Expand In short term if it could help us get a body in somehow then I would take that shot rather than with something that could end up being a cost fallacy. Not that it honestly matters as you know im just a random knobhead on a forum . But there is a chance that he won't be the same player after the ban depending on the severity of it. Although little Joe is coming back and thats all well and good. Miley and Anderson cant replace him for now. Getting another body in with all the games we have would be great. But smarter people than me will have done the number crunching on this and probably has a plan depending on how it ends up.

SAK Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Not looking good, but hopefully these new sponsorship deals I.e. Saudia and Daka, plus the already agreed Adidas deal give us wiggle room to bring in a midfielder to cover his loss. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand The two Joe's and Anderson only ever look good on the left side of the midfield imo. I think we saw last season when Longstaff was missing the balance was completely off when one of them had to shift over into his position. We got away with it but by the end of last season half the midfield were either out or playing through injury too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
