Our first 11 in league 1 is stronger than last season, only player that has left that would be our best player this season (even that is up for debate) is Fatawu. Page is better than Monga IMO, the team we have currently on paper in a top 10 championship team in my opinion.

 

IF we go up this season, maybe make one of the loans perm, JJ, braybrooke and Page would have had a full year playing together,  I think we would be a formidable outfit. One step at a time though 

 

 

I don't know if it's better. Jordan James's goal contributions from central midfield was genuinely impressive. The best players we had last season i.e. James and Fatawu possess more quality than our best players this season. I'd certainly say our team looks more balanced now though.

I forgot about James somehow. Yes more balanced, defence is better and striker options for sure

never heard of him, but I suppose it is the EFL League 1

Hopefully he will be a useful player and not just another LCFC journeyman

He attended the u21’s fixture on Friday night and parked in the only disabled bay left.

Read into that what you will🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️💁‍♂️

Looks very tidy, always looking around on or off the ball

He’s so vital to add that know how to our young midfield. Heard good things about his attitude so hopefully he’s going to be just what we need to tighten up a little 

[kiddo]

Thought he was great today, just what we need. Someone to look after the kids, good on the ball, he’s got quick feet and can put his foot in. Like how he looks to have the ball off the centre backs and then tries to give it to Page or Braybrooke. Scored as well, 8/10 for me.

[Supergray22]

I thought he did well today. Added a bit of composure and nouse and I was pleased to see her was still quick enough and mobile. He also passed the ball around quite cleverly. Most of all he looked a proper CDM and will enable Braybrooke page and Alves etc to do what they do best. A good debut. 

[JonnyZeroFox]

Good payer to have, was happy with him today

Struck me as well. 

 

So used to having midfielders who do absolutely **** all. 

 

This bloke actually moves off the ball and constantly monitored the space. 

 

It's basic central midfielder behaviour and tells you everything about ours over the last few years.

So you miss Soumare? 

[South Shire Fox]

A lot better on the ball then i thought he would be

[GrobyLCFC31]

Lundstrumental 

[FoxinNotts]

Anchoring our previously very lightweight midfield 

 

Much welcome addition 

[Jimmy]

he got a vital deflection on the second attempt first half where they hit the bar twice

[coolhandfox]

Nice to have a bit of physicality qnd another goal threat.

[Nods]

To think we've signed this chap on a free in League One and as a Premier League club spent around £40m on Skipp and Soumare. 

 

I'm struggling for a better example to summarise the failures of our transfer business in recent years than the signing of John Lundstram as a League One club being a better option on a free than what £40m bought us. 

 

Different leagues and all that but would any one of us want Skipp or Soumare in this team?

No one ever wanted Skipp in the first place 

[Vindaloo FOX]

Midfield general just what we need.

[Kinowe Soorie]

Great performance, could be quality at this level.

[Pliskin]

Now we just need a good coach!

[lgfualol]

I like him, needed a player like him for ages

[Sol thewall Bamba]

Nice to have a lad that doesn't look like he'd get blown over in a stiff breeze.
