Oh mate, you said we would spend hardly anything or wont get any Premier League team to loan us a player.

We have spent almost 60m and Wolves are about to loan us their Captain.

I dont want you to delete your account, as you said you would, really, I do not, but at least hold your hands up and admit defeat.

Was at that game and Wolves yesterday at Leeds. They have to be the most blatant team at feigning injuries. Conor Coady not that good according to a Wolves fan met up with last season,I wouldn't want to play for their manager and his cynical tactics.

Needs to delete his account. He must be held to account.

Crush all weasels.

You say hes not good enough for a back 4, has he ever played in a back 4 for you?

Occasionally, probably 5-10 times, and whilst he didn't have disastrous games they were generally high scoring. He also did it this pre-season and it was hard viewing.

It's probably a bit harsh to say he can't do it as it's more about the protection. You'd need narrow full-backs, defensive midfielders protecting and you obviously get less cover as a centre-back in a back four.

He simply can't run. Whenever he's ever faced up one on one the striker always gets a shot off as he backs off continuously as he is scared to engage due to his pace. Same applies down the sides.

Don't want to criticise him too much as he's a legend for us but just how it is.

His positioning is good and he knows where to be and will tell everyone else where to be. I can't imagine for a second Lampard has got him to play in a four.

Coady locks us into a 3 at the back, but you’d think with Onana, Gueye & Iwobi we finally have the players for a 3 man midfield. Interesting to see what Lampard does here.

Pickers
Coady - Holgate - Tarks
Patterson - Gana - Onana - Myko
McNeil ------- Iwobi
DCL

Its the only formation that makes sense given McNeil and Coady signing.
