Who has played a decent chunk of his football at left wing back as far as I can see!

Does he take no responsibility for the building of this bloated and unbalanced squad? The contracts?

Love to know what metric we should judge Soumare by? High intensity sprints?

With the McAtee disappointment, I find it surprising there hasn’t been much chat about Oscar Bobb going out on loan? Maybe that’s our trump card if we sell a couple late doors.

A centre back is by nature going to play more than a young winger so the obligation is almost certainly going to be activated. did think we’d bring him in though so a bit surprised.

In: none out: none

Great maybe we can have Sylvan Ebanks-Blake in exchange

Heads are getting ready to fall off. If we sell our starting forward with no replacement on deadline day…

This just makes too much sense for all parties I think it will happen.

Leeds picking up Amiri from Leverkusen is a bit of a coup.

Monaco spending big on Balogun don’t see them going for Daka as well.

I think the latter comes from having a clear plan and defined strategy. You get over the shock of conceding and get back to what you’ve been drilled to do rather than dithering around. We will only get better at this the longer the season goes on imo

I wonder if he needs to occasionally within games revert to a usual back four. I felt there were times today when we were crying out for Ricardo to overlap Wanya.

Would offer something we are missing in the squad. is that a legit source though? Can’t work it out from the feed

The very fact we are one of just two teams with 2/2 shows how mad this league is and if we are managing to string results together whilst still in the transition phase can only be positive!

Probably not done in time for the weekend which is a shame.

Basically a pre-season friendly. Minutes in the legs, a win and more real world experience of drilling the patterns. Good.

The preciseness of some of the movements and passing patterns after only 1.5 games is very promising. We could be an absolute joy to watch as the season progresses

Looking forward to see Wanya, intrigued as to who is filling the Ricardo role?

Interesting battle of the Italian transfer nonces in play here. Always been a Fab fan so let’s hope he’s correct.

NTT20 is really good I’ve been a listener for a few years. Never thought my club would actually end up being covered on it but “it is what it is”

You’d imagine once the Caicedo deal is done this will be rubber stamped.

It didn’t seem slow and ponderous at all. The way we moved through the thirds was rapid and very exciting. There will be plenty of times this season where we are up against 11 behind the ball and it will be hard work but it won’t be boring by design under Maresca.

Wingers by nature will blow hot and cold and frustrate which he did in this game. But a very good overall contribution and when he gets more up to speed with how Enzo wants to play I can see him putting up great numbers. Like the variety in his play, goes outside and inside, happy to play a cute little ball inside or play a 1-2.
