AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 20 minutes ago, SUPERTOON said: I’m delighted with the signings of Tonali and Barnes, however with just a over a week to go to the season, I’d argue we haven’t strengthened any of the weakest parts of our starting 11 (LB and RW for me). Fingers crossed we can get them before the window closes although as it stands I don’t expect us to sign either of those positions. It's a failure if it ends like this, but I can't imagine it will.

Groundhog63 Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 PIF might as well sell the cunt back to Ashley. Whole thing's a shit show, apparently. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest reefatoon Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 While we are waving the pitchforks at everyone and everything, let’s hound Ashworth out after Wilson, for not signing players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 Out of interest if we finished the window by signing Livramento and a decent RCB, would we be happy? It'd be a very good window for me. Personally, I'd have liked a left back, but the squad will have been significantly upgraded. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 If yous fuckers would stop complaining about memberships then maybe they would have some time to sort transfers out. We could of had a world class left back by now, but arh nar, Bobby from Wallsend doesn't want to sit in row G of the Milburn so put that transfer on hold.

The Butcher Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 We just sold our only creative wide man. Not getting a RW is going to cost us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBG Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 So based on preseason form and Livramneto signing, we could potentially be lining up like this for Villa then.

Stottie Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 The way things stand, I don't mind RW (miggy gordon murph) or particularly LB, esp. if Livramento is coming. If I could handpick a position, I'd like a specialist DM. Earlier in the summer I wanted a striker, but Gordon looked good enough for the U21s. Schar is always going down but is very good at getting back up again. If he wasn't then yes, we are light at CB. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shearergol Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 Who are the likes of Hayden, Hendrick and Fraser training with btw? Surely we should just release them at this stage? Not hearing their names mentioned in any outgoing rumours. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 They’re not training with the main squad. They’re with the reserve team or whatever it’s called now I think. Howe made a comment last week that intimated he’d like for them to leave and be playing football but their wages make it difficult for them to do that. If Hayden hadn’t been injured last season I think we could have moved him on Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The summer improvements should have been to improvements to CM, LB, RW and RCB cover and we would have only filled half of those. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
