Was Callum Doyle not fit to start at left back?

On the bench again

I can not be bothered to learn how to spell his surname.

He'll be back coaching at Man City in 18 months.

Hull are really going for it, definitely ones to watch.

Always a gamble tho. Wouldn’t be the first team to throw a load of players in in Jan and nothing come of it. Personally I wouldn’t be gambling this year, buy players assuming the parachute clubs are going back up.

They just seem to be stacking up attacking midfielders. Their defence isn't all that and strikers not up to much either.

It was aimed more at his fan boys.

They still waving at him?

Ryan Giles going to Hull on loan with an obligation to buy for £4.5 million in the summer. They are certainly splashing the cash.

Strange signing for Luton.

Just doing what we did and signing Giles and not playing him. Wonder if there’s something there that means he doesn’t get on in our kind of teams.

Strange signing for Hull really, he's a decent Championship player but has he already reached his ceiling? Also an odd time to agree a fee imo.

Sunderland have made an approach to sign Callum Styles on loan with an obligation to buy in the summer

Not a bad player but we are above that now really.

Also his stock has really fallen this year it seems as Barnsley fans think he has been pretty bad for them.

Good at getting forward and putting crosses in but defensively not the best.

 

[fernandopartridge]

Can't help thinking that history will repeat itself with Hull, their new owner behaving similarly to their old one.

 

[Sbarcher]

For an attacking midfielder his goalscoring and assists record leaves a lot to be desired. Glad nothing has ever happened with the Styles rumour.

Off to our friends in the North East.

Talking with friends at the weekend, maybe with sky blue specs on , but how do you think us and Leicester would do if promoted? Leicesters squad for me needs a lot more additions than ours in my opinion

You are insane. If we went up we’d need:
Starting GK
Starting LB
Minimum 1 new CB
New DM to partner Sheaf
Starting Striker
Then quality depth in all the other attacking spots.

You are joking, right?

Obviously like I said through sky blue tinted specs but it was regards next season . Leicester for me need a huge overhaul of players

 

[Matt smith]

Getting tetchy for an incoming now

 

[covcity4life]

We’ll see about the future, but as far as this season is concerned, sacking Eustace blew it. Not that anyone’s complaining mind you

Mowbray may get them close still. Next year they will be a force with their money

What money?

As a squad of individuals, they’re clearly better than what we have. However, I’d argue that their style of play will only work if they have players who are technically far ahead of their ‘peers’ and that’s why it’s working in the Championship. Don’t think they could play like that in the PL without significant upgrades.

That's sort of what I was saying . As a project I feel they have only papered over the cracks since their relegation

Course you are

Saw a stat earlier without Ndidi they’ve P7 W3 D1 L3. Says it all. Basically a mid table side.

I'd be massively underwhelmed if we signed Ryan Giles for £4.5 million. Championship as fuck.

Hull are shite. They have a crap defence and no strikers.

 

[Londonccfcfan]

Hulls team consists of mostly loans. They are investing and developing other teams players.

Glad we don't have that model anymore.

Got Forest out of this division

 

[Londonccfcfan]

Hull are bit peeved having invested in Scot Twine beginning of season he fucked off half way through season.

 

[Londonccfcfan]

Got Forest out of this division

Then a major rebuild was needed..as they had to buy a whole new team. And now they complaing about FFp that they had to buy a whole new team ( mitigating circumstances my arse).

Besides no comparison Forest with Hull.

 

[skybluegod]

Got Forest out of this division

And then in a load of financial trouble with the PL in the top division... Short term success...

 

[TomRad85]

And Birmingham a good while back but it hardly guarantees success and if you fuck it you're starting again next season.

Hulls policy is bonkers and short sighted.

Look at us. Next season we are ready to go fir it again with just a couple more additions.

Could be ready this season , with the addition of Torp and rumours of a couple more we've got a real squad of players we can build upon
