Thomas-Asantes touches have impressed so far. If we’re after a DM we could do worse than Brannagan

I think age is often equated to fitting this leadership role. From what I’ve seen this year the leadership mantle seems to be adequately covered by the likes of Milan, Binks, Bidwell and Wright

Amazing how one e on the end of his surname transforms him from a 1950’s dock worker to a foreign man of dashing and dare

Why are a lot of us bothered whether we need Bassette? Why are we bothered whether he’ll start/be “kept happy”. And why are we trying to envisage how our squad fits into eleven spaces. It’s a squad. Robins will know full well what he needs. I guarantee you if King had said to him “you can have...

The fees being talked about for Gyokeres are ridiculous. Of course, the more the better, but talk around 90-100m is surely quite ridiculous for a player who has never played at the top level. This would rank him alongside the likes of Rice, Griezmann etc.

You have to have a chuckle at those who think it’s been a poor window. Short, short memories.

I think the problem was back in 1977 that we just needed a defensive midfielder and right back cover in that squad.

It’s not as simple as transfer fees in and out. We’ve refurbished Ryton, invested in support staff and undoubtedly have a higher wage bill than previously. It’s taken us decades to recover from the high risk days just before relegation. Let’s not repeat the error.

Madsen - hope he does go to QPR. We need a holding midfielder. Worrall - never been that keen. We’ll get someone in, quite relieved it’s neither of these

Don’t agree with that. Thomas is what he is already. I think Kitching will progress. Equally though I don’t see Worrall as a big improvement on Thomas.

Vik is nowhere near Keane!

Remember it well. Scored on his debut and it was obvious he’d go on to huge things. Tried to replace him with Bellamy which was pretty much the beginning of the decline in the prem years.

But the drop off after Milan is probably the biggest of any position. Hence the need.

No, didn’t mean all of it. If we have that money I’d rather spend some of it at RB.

To improve our CB stock we’re going to have to spend 5-6m. If we have that I’d rather spend it on RB. We have 4 CB’s all capable of starting. Do we really need 5?

Were people watching the same player? He literally tore Oxford to pieces.

Eccles is a fine midfielder. No problem with him at all. Getting left behind?! By who? Amazes me how perfection is expected in high paced games

A lot of the negative stuff is during the game and it’s reactive frustration. That’s just fans of most sports. I think it’s a given that anyone out there is trying and so should be backed but discussing performances is equally a huge aspect and valid part of being a fan

Good way of putting it.

In reality Oxford didn’t worry us. You could argue that should be the case. We’re finding ways to concede rather than being picked apart.
