Itten and Roofe played well together at the start of last season. It's not like we had one of them or anything... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barker's contract is up next summer. Could've easily shipped him out somewhere for free surely. Those involved in the Simpson deal should've been given a very hefty fine. Diabolical scouting and judging. If we could have got rid of Barker we obviously would have given he hasn't featured once. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably partly because he just wasn't good enough and partly because we don't play to fit a player like his strengths. And related to this people are calling for signings we've already made, box to box midfielder capable of shooting outside the box, pacey winger, pacey forward player/striker - they're just absolute dross because we've clearly not a pot to piss in.

NeoGeo7 10,498 Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 We needed a summer of quality over quantity, I think we missed out on veerman and probably some other targets because of the Malmö result, so we end up signing bacuna who can’t get a look in presumably because he isn’t good enough.

Bit part player for "Huddersfield fucking town" No fucking wonder. Has desperate wrote all over it. I think the cunt can't believe his luck tbh and looks like a rabbit in headlights in the glimpses we have seen. The malmo fiasco should have seen Gerrard reprimanded by the board, I doubt the board have the guts to tell him that was unnaceptable, well see when finances are published. Gerrard and his backroom staff will be on megabucks imo. Certainly more than the aussie n his sideshow at the peadodome Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimfanciesthedude 24,540 Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 I suppose its good in a way that we probably cant even afford the wages for a bunch of freebies, cause no doubt they would be fucking honking Unless we sell or move on anyone in jan, this is the squad we need to deal with, Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Archer 1,091 Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Any of our youth who can give a good showing in Europe etc should be in the first team eg McCrorie,Kelly,Patterson. Greegs should be played as much as possible but Davies,Arfield should be emergencies. Goldson,Tav,Aribo,Allie,Balogun,Barker should be sold Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
