Tapsoba and then maybe back in for Trafford. Has anyone else even been mentioned? No. Absolutely no one else at all. Just Tapsoba and Trafford the whole window.

Kid Icarus Posted Tuesday at 20:59 Share Posted Tuesday at 20:59 Don't think you can deny it's been quiet. There's been very little talk or movement and not just with us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The former, but us subsequently playing well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
black_n_white Posted Tuesday at 21:18 Share Posted Tuesday at 21:18 I’m pretty sure Howe will be content with Burn, Kelly, Schar and Krafth as his center backs this season or at least until January when Botman will return. Also he’ll be happy with Miggy / Murphy as his RW options again. It’s a massive risk though and one which could cost him his job come the end of the season. Time will tell. I for one cannot wait until the window closes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Jinx Posted Tuesday at 21:49 Share Posted Tuesday at 21:49 Whilst we need more bodies at the back, the balance in midfield is my biggest concern. Maybe Tonali will sort that.. hard to tell. He’ll certainly add the pace that we’ve been lacking there defensively. Like previously mentioned, we can score goals.. it’s how we’re providing them to the forwards that needs to improve. Midfield is key to controlling games, thus keeping the pressure off the defence while also providing different ways to unlock teams. In my humblest.. both Longstaff and Joelinton need to be removed from those positions alongside Bruno. Big Joe is too good to keep out though.. he needs to be found more of a free role a little bit wider and more forward. He does his best work there. The formation needs a shake up. Willock and Tonali are the obvious replacements and they can play either side but we should be looking at cover there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I promise this isn't a don't worry about the transfer window post, but Tonali might end up being such an upgrade on Longstaff that it transforms the right side to the point that we don't even care we didn't get a new RW. It's what I'm clinging to at this point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Checko Posted Tuesday at 22:21 Share Posted Tuesday at 22:21 Positions are for all you 1960's stans, still obessed with the WM formation, wingless diamonds and outside rights.

Is Trippier meant to be playing right wing or full back? Harvey Barnes is a winger, not a 10. You said he's scored goals from that position, he's literally never played that position in his entire career and scoring a few goals from a more central area does not mean he can play that role. Bruno's scored a few headers from inside the box, does that mean he can play as a no.9? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
