  1. Needs to play regularly just not for us - needs a loan where he can play without pressure - expectations here are top 6 although I believe we are miles away from that but than less we write the season off to bed in youngsters he is just not ready
  2. Whilst having potential we have lots of those already in Evans, Monga, Alves, Jospeh, Page, Aluko to name a few - I would much rather us sell off those that we can raise funds for those who do not want to be here - if that means we have funds for one or two players then get the right players - I think a quality striker is critical and probably one who is slightly more proven even if overseas otherwise we will stick with Ayew and Daka plus a loanee!
  3. Just as we score two set pieces he moves on - you can’t make it up !
  4. Over Bilal and Justin - both likely to leave - I would drop Skipp too but maybe Hamza could play as he must offer more
  5. Monga has to start to get a full debut plus if he rips it up we can take him off after 60 minutes - need to give the lad a proper run. He needs careful management as Alves was over hyped and his injury has not helped his development - otherwise I would go stronger as he can learn more about them and with 5 subs it can still be managed - we need to get into a habit of winning and also he will know which are likely to leave !
  6. You cannot play Nelson and Okoli together as they are both not as good at passing as the manager wants - Okoli looked poor positionally and was awful on the ball - Nelson has the potential but whilst I despise them both Vesty and Faes are better players - if we do a proper rebuild I agree Nelson should play more but we will be in for a transitional season if they do that across the team
  7. I would rather have Daka in Soumares place but is not going to happen - players don’t just move position without a good reason and McAteer has less ability than BS imo - both are rubbish!!
  8. Great post and you could have added that has been the case for the past 2-3 years and we need to bring in players who either short term get us up and we only sign them for a max of 2 seasons or players that can grow like Bilal - tough to find but can be done with James, Drinkwater, Knockaert, Mahrez all proof of it from 12 years ago - we need a similar plan and policy to recruit! marti will need to have a clear vision !
  9. Ayew looked better when Daka came on as he had more space - still shoots far too much when better options on but when you have him, Daka stretching the defence and Bilal plus the wide boys we have some attacking threat - games at home will be difficult because everyone will come and sit in so we will have lots of possession. Width from full back over lapping and finding space will be a premium - unfortunately Thomas and Justin added little.
  10. Apart from his feet as he put it out about 6 times - Mind we had a world class keeper who used to do that and he won the prem!
  11. As always Wednesday fans were superb - over the years they are consistently in the top 3 for noise and constant singing
  12. It’s not about being a snowflake but he’s a complete tossr who thinks he is way better than he is - and if he cared one jot over his time here we would support him - his lack of self awareness having been instrumental in two relegations and believing he’s above us all is what gets under my skin
  13. I think he's the most likely candidate to get a loan with option deal, be lucky to get a £1m loan fee mind you but we'll then probably look to a new signing below £6 to be no worse off for the season. edited to correct it Ric - he’s doggo and will celebrate like promotion if he goes
  14. Sadly so do a couple of prem sides - this could be the deal we all hate as I have a feeling our owners maybe daft enough to sell Fatawu - he is the one player we should absolutely keep!
  15. Yes an elite elite sportsman and a business transformer who actually has invested in the area properly - time will tell I have a feeling Davies maybe a quick learner but getting the blues up will determine his real qualities - I fancy them and ITFC this season to be the powers in the division.
  16. Interesting how people interpret things differently - i was quite impressed with his tactical awareness and he’s quite bright - Wagner and Brady will get Blues to the prem very quickly and will have a big impact in Birmingham in regenerating a part of the city - love or loathe the personalities they know what they are doing and the single minded dynamic leadership was refreshing.
  17. We need to be slightly careful as there first half team was an experimental 11 with only 3 or 4 starters - although I was impressed with Okolio and Thomas who both looked good whilst what can you say about Abdul !!!
  18. And drag VK out the stand to do likewise
  19. Any idea on Fiorentina team ? seeing as ours is rubbish
  20. I know that was not my point
  21. I am sure many fans across the country are watching what’s happening to your great club and feel huge sympathy. Wednesday is one of the proper football clubs at the centre of its wider community and to see the way it has been allowed to be mismanaged by the league is a disgrace. I am sure lots of foxes fans will be hoping that some sense prevails and your club is better hands before too long!
  22. I doubt it anything like as straightforward as that as where we are today probably means we may need to move on more than one player - we have moved down a reasonable amount of wages although the squad is still bloated - another week and it maybe clearer as I would expect a couple more to leave imminently
  23. Fair shout but I just want the floppy haired tosser out of our club and if some miracle we could get rid of Soumare and VK too then that would probably be the best window in the past 4 years even if we don’t sign anyone - I would at least want to go and watch again. Peter Taylor signed some complete honkers but find lot are the most odious lot I have seen - be glad if we could just move 7 or 8 on so we could start again.
  24. Having lived in Suffolk and been involved with ITFC they have come on leaps and bounds since McKenna joined them and he is undoubtedly the best manager in the Championship however the size of club, infrastructure and opportunity at our club far outweighs the attraction of ITFC - guaranteed Top 6 next season but not a guarantee he remains - if Brentford, West Ham or Bournemouth change or lose their managers KM would be high on their lists and I think there is a fair chance one of them changes before Xmas!
  25. Completely agree we need to learn form how we originally got into the prem 15 years ago - backbone Keeper, Centre half and centre midfielder - we don’t have any at all maybe Nelson in time but we need a great keeper to build from !
