Would they play together this year?Together as a midfield 3? I’m guessing probably zero.

it might take a couple of windows to do thatJeez you're positive all summer then rightly point out the club hasn't exactly gone about filling the gap left by Hamer very well and they all come out the woodwork.
If you are completely unprepared for it then that is likely yes.it might take a couple of windows to do that
You do realise we only play 3 midfielders, so what your saying is we already have the perfect midfield.Bar Sheaf, Callum and Ayari that midfield is average at best. Take them 3 out that's a relegation battling midfield
If people still haven’t learned from the last 2 seasons why squad depth matters, where have they been?You do realise we only play 3 midfielders, so what your saying is we already have the perfect midfield.
And we'd still have Palmer, Eccles, Sakamoto, Allen and Kelly all sat on the bench or sat in the stands watching.
How much money do you want us to splash out on more subs?
So we'd agree we have more than enough cover in midfield already then, so no need to add to it.Together as a midfield 3? I’m guessing probably zero.
Clearly they weren't unprepared. MR even alluded to alternative targets being looked at before Gus had even left. I'm not convinced that MR doesn't plan to use Ayari in the Hamer role anyway, that seemed to be the consensus when he signed. He played half a game further forward and that idea seems to have been written off completely.If you are completely unprepared for it then that is likely yes.
As I've pointed out, we already have 8 players competing for 3 places!So we'd agree we have more than enough cover in midfield already then, so no need to add to it.
You've proved my point.

I'm sure he'll play there a bit, seems a good player. Could be wrong but pretty sure even since he came in Robins said we need to bring someone in to do what Gus did, basically.Clearly they weren't unprepared.

But we only play 3 !!!!!!!None of them apart from the 3 mentioned are top 6 championship material and il die on that hill

If we sign a midfielder I’ll be content.But we only play 3 !!!!!!!
Ffs man get your head around it.
Thanks, i was sure he did. Nice that Robins agrees with me.He did say we need two to replace him and was straight on ayari for not running enough
Take any teams 3 best midfielders out and it'd be a struggle to be fair.Bar Sheaf, Callum and Ayari that midfield is average at best. Take them 3 out that's a relegation battling midfield
I don't disagree it would be nice to have a more like for like replacement for Hamer to add to the midfield but I don't think it's a massive disaster if we don't. I also don't think we should roll over and pay silly fees or break our wage structure for the sake of it.I'm sure he'll play there a bit, seems a good player. Could be wrong but pretty sure even since he came in Robins said we need to bring someone in to do what Gus did, basically.
Ayari will slot in lovely.If we sign a midfielder I’ll be content.
im sorry you can’t justify not replacing hamer adequately we sold him 3 weeks ago
Swift not happening according to turner …
The one slight concern I have is that squad depth was a slight issue last year (although we still overcame it). Don't see that changing this year.Look lads if we had 16 players unavailable at any one point the squad looks pretty weak so I'm really cross at this eventuality not being fully mitigated

Of course you can justify it. Footballers aren't slaves, you can't force them to move if they don't want to and thankfully we have moved beyond the dark days of buying anyone who was available just to make up the numbers.If we sign a midfielder I’ll be content.

Feel like it's been a good transfer window on the whole, other than not replacing Hamer (so far). Think Ayari can probably play that role, but I'd like someone who was our player at least as development.
Our biggest area of squad weakness was attack and attacking midfield with both needing players out of position at times, both addressed.The one slight concern I have is that squad depth was a slight issue last year (although we still overcame it). Don't see that changing this year.

According to someone I know who in the past has knew stuff Lewis Baker is coming in and Bidwell is going to Brum. I hope he’s bullshitting

What isn't justifiable is the assertion that the club have sat around scratching their arseholes for the last 3 weeks in the hopes a midfielder might appear magically in a burst of rainbows.
Not Carl Baker ?According to someone I know who in the past has knew stuff Lewis Baker is coming in and Bidwell is going to Brum. I hope he’s bullshitting
Chelsea link so I can see it, who’s the back up left backAccording to someone I know who in the past has knew stuff Lewis Baker is coming in and Bidwell is going to Brum. I hope he’s bullshitting
