Juries out on Dalcio and Pena but the rest look up to snuff so far imo. Agree with what you've said there. Dalcio and Pena have barely kicked a ball for us and could still come good as well. We've moved on most of the deadwood and brought in almost an entirely new team. I think Pedro has done a solid job of it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did our business early and the players have settled IN not too bad, yes a couple would have been nice but signing players on the last day to make headlines ISnt what we want as we have had too many kneejerk signings and hopefully have learnec. However we still have 90 mins Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

djwyc14 116 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Well I have up until now been behind Caixinha and hesitant to criticise. However if there are no more incoming transfers and we have just weakened the squad by loaning out Dodoo without a plan to replace him I am raging with both him and Allen. A front line of Morelos Herrera Miller and Hardie. Heaven forbid. At least Walker would give us an option on the left but it seems we are still squabbling stubbornly over pennies. It's a joke. Not a good impression Mr Allen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fantana 28,894 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 More bullshit fed to the fans from the club, realistically, what did people expect?

Pedro is apparently on record saying we'd be very happy with the end of the transfer window dealings. Fact is we've brought in a backup leftsided defender, loaned out an attacking option and are still well short of attacking options. Not very happy at all.

No, what I'm annoyed about is that we now have less attacking options when I assumed we'd end the window with more, given we were already short.

ritchieshearercaldow 22,263 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 So do we recon the op was bullshit, Pedro did say in his presser that deals were ongoing, the very, very happy quote ties in with it. We can't prove he said it but if he did he should just stay in Portugal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivybank 4,643 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 No wonder Pedro fkd off to Portugal,"mark Allen will deal with the transfers" what transfers? A third rate guy from Cardiff.

If he does play in front of Wallace maybe he will show more willingness to track back and put in a tackle also if Wallace goes forward maybe he will drop in and cover instead of leaving the left side exposed.

duffy2391 574 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I hoped it was true, obviously in the sense that we had something to look forward to but also because of his manner towards the Sutton situation. We won't know, can't see the OP being in a rush to clear anything up. It's no doubt just another rumour to add to the pile, if I had 50p for every ITK statement that's came out tonight I could buy Walker myself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsa 3,906 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 We made decent signings early on. I'm not sure what people expected from the last few days. It appears a couple of 14 year old on Twitter have whipped people into a frenzy and now there's tantrums because Nani or Weiss haven't appeared.

No. I'm annoyed because we are well short on attacking options. Our options for left wing consist of... errr Dalcio... maybe shoehorn in Kranjcar or Windass... hmmm... We are also shy on centre forwards and shouldn't expect Morelos to carry the can. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
