I'm not so sure they are good enough, however DK will probably take your view on this, which will potentially make it difficult for FL to bring in yet another CB. He ultimately believes the deck is good enough so without external investment from sell ons or player sales I very much doubt he'll...

Pointless to make predictions regarding exits or incomings now for the summer. Certainly regarding exits you could literally make a case for pretty much half of the squad leaving at this juncture of the season.

I suspect that's probably the case. The short term goal is quite obviously to stop the rot and bring players back into form. Even come summer though I still think that further investment of any significance will hinge on outgoings.

I don't think FL would've agreed to join unless there were guarantees about budget being available. That being said, undoubtedly DK would've reaffirmed that a huge amount of revenue has been pumped into this squad and that FL needs to look to get the most out of what's already here.

Fair. Possibly something we might look to do.

Finding loans to cover existing players is pretty unrealistic to be honest as ultimately their parent clubs are going to want them to feature regularly.

Tactically, it was appalling. Sakamoto was played central, a position he struggles in anyway and Robins didn't think to change it sooner even though Adams was basically doing nothing but man mark him all game, completely stifling him. The Rudoni left back experiment came to a crashing end...

We've also got to factor in that the players had months under the tactical instruction of a horrendously inept coaching team. Along with implementing a new style and getting players to learn their individual roles within a fresh system, there's probably quite a bit of unlearning to be done as...

I don't really know what you expected in such few games though? It takes more than four games to re-instil confidence and it also takes time to become accustomed to a new management team's way of doing things, even more so for a group of players which lack belief. I think once we get the...

There's still a lot to be worked on. But I don't believe anyone on here would say any different. The defence is still a massive concern. We somehow have a knack of conceding goals or chances from not all that dangerous situations and that didn't change yesterday. But take it for what it is...

I just don't really understand how you can come to that conclusion though. Individually, players looked much better and there were actual recognisable patterns of play and a style they were looking to execute. Yes, it was against a side which are obviously in free fall but if you compare the...

Did you even go to the game? We should've comfortably scored 4 goals. You're having a shocker today.

Given the state of your posts recently I don't even know why I'm bothering responding as you're an uneducated nobody at the best of times but recently you've gone down a complete rabbit hole of pure idiocy which frankly is impressive. Not much fault can be directed towards the CBs as once it...

Those in glass houses. I'm sure we've all been guilty of it in the past.

It's the same with Collins yesterday though. Most thought he had a pretty decent game yet because he's generally a crap GK posters will just outright refuse to acknowledge that. For some, it's hard to give kudos to players that are consistently underperforming.

Going forward he actually linked play really nicely yesterday and in terms of working the ball in tight situations he's probably the best in the current squad at it. But this isn't a five a side league. His primary job is to defend and he just doesn't have the tools or ability to be able to do...

He was good going forward but he once again had a couple of poor moments that lead to threatening situations - one of which was a goal. He's just not very good defensively, that's not having an agenda, he just isn't.

Exactly, and chopping and changing CBs is something managers / head coaches traditionally just don't do. It affects continuity and doesn't allow a pairing (in the case of playing in a back four) to build any kind of cohesion with one another. It'll get to a point where FL will stick with his...

Rubbish. He's crap but at least give him credit where it's due. The shot from Longman when he cut inside was a good save as he had a couple of bodies in his way and the ball dipped right front of him. Awkward one to face. His second from Burstow shooting with the outside of his foot was...

I take the point that it's only 4 games, but again it doesn't look great for Kitching's future at the club when an it gets to the point where FL wants to shake things up and favours an inconsistent Latibeaudiere over him in his favoured position. It's not really a case of taking what I want...
