And we were trying according to reports . While I wish we had signed another midfielder I'm glad we just didn't sign another Maguire and that we can hold out for the right player

We needed more in central midfield even without Hamer leaving.
It is withstanding it?I dunno, my hope was that £35 million in transfer funds would mean the squad would be rebuilt to withstand an injury to Ben Sheaf!
Probably right but I think there is a player in there to work withAyari was just a panic signing
Nothing compared to AdaramolaAyari was just a panic signing
One chance. I heard a gentleman say couple of times yesterday that ‘Gyokeres would’ve absolutely buried that’.He was put through at Lesta if memory serves
Overall, I think our squad is a stronger, Wright and Simms will come good and our defence is a lot better off - where we’re going to lose an influential player in McFadz in the relative short term.I dunno, my hope was that £35 million in transfer funds would mean the squad would be rebuilt to withstand an injury to Ben Sheaf!
Will be interesting to see if we are still after Brekale(sp) in January as he could be Fadz long term replacementOverall, I think our squad is a stronger, Wright and Simms will come good and our defence is a lot better off - where we’re going to lose an influential player in McFadz in the relative short term.
1-2 midfielders and the return of COH and our squad is looking very good again.

Binks has been fantastic so far but I haven't seen any of our defenders who could do the Fadz role so far . Lati potentially could but his size would be a worry , has Kitching been signed to play in that role or is he just a LCB ?I think we’ll keep tabs, but Binks’ form begs the question of whether or not we try to sign him permanently or not.

Firstly, Gyokeres is clearly better than Simms and Wright. Secondly, Gyokeres had his fair share of missed chances.
Not only have we lost Gyokeres, it’s Hamer too and no doubt that Robins knows the midfield is his weak point by a distance.

Exactly. I love Gyokeres and he was the best forward in the league last year, but you wouldn’t say he was the best out-and-out finisher in the team.What Vik are people remembering? The one I remember frequently missed sitters and one on ones.
You’re right. Personally, I like some of the attributes he has to offer to have faith he’ll come good.You can’t see say Wright will come good it’s no different to saying he definitely won’t
I think both Kitching and Binks can play centrally and as Thomas and Kitching like to overlap, you’d think that’d be option if McFadz gets injured/suspended.Binks has been fantastic so far but I haven't seen any of our defenders who could do the Fadz role so far .

I think Allen and Sheaf will be the two CMs with Palmer at AM at full strength. Eccles is still developing and is a decent player but strikes me as more of a depth player.Binks is very good I like him.
Jamie Allen superb, that’s why he starts every day of the week over an Ayari or a Palmer
We should definitely prioritise signing Binks, you’ve got to admire him going off to Canada and Italy at such a young age to play football.Binks is very good I like him.

He could have easily get a job on TOWIE as wellWe should definitely prioritise signing Binks, you’ve got to admire him going off to Canada and Italy at such a young age to play football.
I know hindsight is easy but we had Binks before we spent 4m on Kitching we had Simms before we spent nearly 8m on Wright. Had that 12m been spent on one top perm and one top loan signing in the midfield where would we be!We should definitely prioritise signing Binks, you’ve got to admire him going off to Canada and Italy at such a young age to play football.
Haha yeah was actually going to include that as the only drawback but decided against it.He could have easily get a job on TOWIE as well

Not sure we'll see the return of the box, he seems pretty insistent on playing two up top.I don’t think Allen works in a two. He needs more freedom. Either a three or the box for me.

Eccles has been a virtual ever present in the team for nearly a year now, even when we had Hamer. I think it's fair to say Robins sees something in him that a lot on here don't.I think Allen and Sheaf will be the two CMs with Palmer at AM at full strength.

COH starts over Palmer mate, whether you haven’t said you’d start him because you feel he’ll take a while that’s fairI think Allen and Sheaf will be the two CMs with Palmer at AM at full strength. Eccles is still developing and is a decent player but strikes me as more of a depth player.
I think it will be a while and until he’s back and playing consistently, we can’t really count egg before it’s hatched. As we found with Jones, I’m convinced he’d have prospered had he not done his second ligament at P’boro at home in L1.COH starts over Palmer mate, whether you haven’t said you’d start him because you feel he’ll take a while that’s fair
but he’s way better than Palmer if we can get him right again
Palmer?I think Allen and Sheaf will be the two CMs with Palmer at AM at full strength. Eccles is still developing and is a decent player but strikes me as more of a depth player.
Gyokeres was better when he left us than Simms is now. But when he first joined us he wasn't. Many wondered why we wasted 1m on his signing after his loan spell with us.One chance. I heard a gentleman say couple of times yesterday that ‘Gyokeres would’ve absolutely buried that’.

That’s who’s been starting there whenever he’s fit and available…Palmer?

COH is obviously the first choice if he recovers from his ACL and his pre-injury form. He won’t even be in contention for at least a month and he’ll be eased in from then. Even then, it’s not a given he’ll be the same.Only as others were injured

As of now, he’s not in consideration so it’s moot.
I am not sure O'Hare will be back that early certainly as a consistent starter.Well Allen will play there - Robins likes Eccles so cannot see him out and O Hare will be ready before Palmer probably anyway - he is out for 2 months
