Jesus - some city fans on here showing some serious lack of knowledge when it comes to the background of these players, their potential and the model we work to.

I thought MR stated last week that he was looking at bringing in 4 defensive minded players, so if so that leaves 2 still remaining. One could be as cover/ replacement for Fadz. If not I would have thought Hyam was the most likely to step into that role as Fadz starts to feature less.

No way are we having 6 CBs three on loan on the books.
Two from LWB/RWB/GK I reckon.

Top few teams perhaps, not Dijon etc. Wasn't he there the season they came bottom by miles?

What is the top few teams ? In your opinion where would a team like Norwich finish in ligue 1
Finham

Not bottom (like Dijon)-or relegated.

So overall then we are in agreement that the league is stronger than the championship ,and finishing bottom doesn't indicate you are worse than a championship team .. brilliant ..cheers
You seemed to disagree with that , when actually you've just told me you don't

Well it's a silly point to be fair .. the French league is better than the championship and worse than the prem .. the championship as shown is MILES behind the premier league

Ligue 1 is better than the Championship and Belgian Prem is better than SPL. Just to be very clear.

Realistically we needed two or three first team players (without losing anybody).
We do seem to be going for quantity over quality in the defensive department it seems anyway. Lose one of our best players and with rumours of Moore being desired is a bit worrying. Palmer and Wilson to take over from them both? Well that would be absolutely barmy as well.

I know Mbappe and Neymar take the piss in Ligue 1 but imagine them in the Championship

Next up is replacing the deadwood (Wilson, Kane, Rose, Kelly, Allen, Waghorn, Walker) and all bar Allen are out of contract in the summer. I think that’s when you might see more depth in those positions.

Maybe the top 6 are better than Championship, but the rest? Seriously?

Even if you do think that, so what, he played a few games for a side that were terrible in that league, so it hardly makes him a world-beater. Ditto Forest Reserves-I was under the impression that we saw ourselves as on a par with their actual FIRST team last season (after all, we did beat them I think, or was that a dream?
), so accordingly, signing their absolute-emergency backup player as a regular for our side is a rather underwhelming.That all said, I do hope he wins Championship Player of the Year as we storm to Promotion!

I think that the point I made , that he played 20 odd matches in a better league , is a true statement .. not sure where we go from here mate

We beat them opening day of season under Hughton, they beat us at City Ground fairly easily and then were promoted.
Under Cooper they were the best team in the league I think points wise

They also have some good centre halves in Cook, who has a wealth of premier league experience , mckenna who plays for Scotland and Joe Worrall who was a sensation , not an easy team to get into

You shouldn't be trying to pass off your opinions as facts then, should you?You do like the shit emoji .. when people are spitting straight facts at you it's just rude mate ..
My last word on him for now-unimpressed with his experience, but hoping to be surprised.

OK I believe the French top flight is better than the championship

Well I'd have grant Hanley here , even though he was in a side that got shat on week in week out at Norwich last year ..
Wouldn't you
Finham

Yes because our top flight is miles above their top flight and Norwich would do OK.
Evo1883

Finham I agree their top flight is better , but I don't agree Norwich would do any good

Exactly, there is a very poor level of depth.

Why is it supposed fans shit on every signing Robins makes when Robins has improved the squad every single season?
