Pretty solid nickname

 

[blue to the bone]

They won't get anyone in till after Thursday so the new Manager won't be able to spend

Yes he their most disliked player on the West Mids Banter sites

They are gonna finish bottom so and by a bit too.
@Bungle is lookin for you !

Not enough time to get any deals sorted now.

Sell Gordon this late with no chance of replacing properly the club is insane but then they've proved they are before

A bit of strength & depth compared to last year, but like many worried about the quality and forward line. If only we had a few pennies to get a top winger and striker in, would make the season a lot more interesting.

You aren't the only person who's done this but you are the most recent, so I'll quote your post to make this point.

According to Transfermarkt, in seasons between 2012/13 and today, Maupay has played wide left the exact sum total of twice. In 310 senior games, over a decade.

In that same period, he's played wide right seven times.

In those nine total appearances out wide, Maupay has scored two goals and made zero assists.

He's not - completely, emphatically and unreservedly NOT - a winger.

And because of that, he's not playing out wide left ahead of Gordon or Gray. It would be complete nonsense to move them to positions where they are less effective in order to accommodate someone who is less effective than them at LW.

Maupay will be DCL's backup. if we switch to a system with two up front, he'll start alongside Dominic. Other than that, he's riding the pine.

Looking forward to Thursday

surely Hwang is better than Big Dale Winton?

 

[billyblue80]

People saying its too late its not at all loans can be done quite quickly and deal sheets can go in and medicals done after

Some chap on Twitter has put up a photo of Moshiri in town apparently. Hopefully a sign things are happening. Picture is probably from 5 years ago lol

Actually looks like he’s in London so probably nothing going on and he’s just out for lunch lol

….he’s raising funds;

 

[billyblue80]

Alot of talk of another forward and I agree we need another one who can play wide and add goals but more important is some creativity we have very little right now.

I think you're effectively arguing the exact same point that he's making but somehow failing to see it. We get in to good positions but fail to actually create a good chance once we get there, because we lack creativity. That's exactly what goat's saying, and all these stats you're quoting just back it up. I'm not so sure it's as simple as a striker fixing it either, we're not delivering quality into areas only for it to be squandered/nobody gets on the end of it, we're just not producing the quality service for anybody. If anything, I'd say the lack of a striker has helped in that sense, on saturday in particular the fluidity of the front 3 caused Brentford more problems than a bog standard striker would have done, they didn't know who was going to pop up where and it showed.

The million dollar question, is do good strikers take more chances, or get more chances.

It's not an easy question to answer, but it dictates a fair bit of how we move forward.

I dont think they miss loads of opportunities though. Or the ones we currently have. Rondon isnt spawning loads if chances, hes just not good enough to get them.

Think Hwang would be a decent signing in my extremely humble opinion.

Brands was a very keen admirer of him

Good point .

Whilst there is very little creativity there's probably even less movement from our front players.

Chicken and egg. If they move are our midfield good enough to find them.

Sadly we are lacking in quality throughout the team.
