It’s a good point actually, it’s something I’ve suspected as well on Thelwell and Dyche - think it’s gets to a point, where it’s - this is who is available and this is who we can afford, it’s this or nothing and compromises are made sub optimally based on our limits.
To be fair think Ndiaye is a player and I think we needed that variance, he puts in a huge shift defensively deceptively so, I don’t think Lindstrom makes it here or anywhere in the PL on what I’ve seen so far have a feeling we will be filing under Bernard. Give or take a decent free kick.
It’s a squad of limited quality, I don’t think anyone’s coming and changing the dynamic of the team, it’s as fundamental as quality, we will be relying on fighting, commitment and attitude again. The system has needed stabilisers and built safety to stay in the league - things like Doucoure playing the hybrid role, once we open up a bit - we’re back to Lampard results. We don’t have the quality.
