Yeah that’s an interesting observationBeing honest Allen is not what we need in that part of the pitch either. What concerns me is there's yet another parallel with England in having a defensive manager in charge of a group that's imbalanced in favour of attacking players.
We’re not going to play 4-4-2. Nobody in the modern game does.
you negate MVE to a purely defensive Role. The central midfield gets overrun by 4-3-3 and 4-2-3-1.
the wide players are seen as more deeper - so again you’re negating the attacking prowess of Wright and whoever is in the right.
further to that as there’s nobody behind the strikers there’s a massive gap in attacking midfield that is usually mopped up by a DM. The strikers would be totally isolated
Are you feeling ok ? Genuine question.3/10 window
The octopus from the World Cup compares well with our in the knowsDespite the opinions on here of Nixon he got 100 transfers right this summer. Seems to compare pretty well to the accuracy of our ITK’s
Hope we achieve their successBeing honest Allen is not what we need in that part of the pitch either. What concerns me is there's yet another parallel with England in having a defensive manager in charge of a group that's imbalanced in favour of attacking players.

Yeah. I do really like the look of Torp, but he needs to have bigger impacts on games than he has been having so far. We have seen glimpses of how good he can be.Rudoni is key for me and getting the best out of Torp
Certainly isSuch a huge amount of bollox on here
Definitely worth a punt, if only on a short term contract.Could Ghoddos be a good signing. Still a free agent got experience and a centre mid?
I mentioned him. Sure we were linked to him previouslyReggie cannon is available as mentioned previously. would be great RB/CB cover.
As soon as Dovin and Rudoni walked in and Wright, Simms, Ewijk and Saka didn’t walk out this was an excellent window. The others are a bonus. I don’t get the clamour just to sign anyone. They would eat up budget. It’s far better to wait until you can get who you want. If I was King and was faced with fans who believe the window has been poor I’d be severely disappointed
Very temperamental apparently
We had Palmer for 2 yearsVery temperamental apparently
Sunderland gone absolutely mental signing players since the window closed. Looks like 3 with another to be done.
One of them is a DCM that played 6 times in the Champions League last year ffs.
Probably not as we obviously are ignoring the loan marketInteresting that the DCM, Salis Samed is a Ghana international on a loan from Lens, named in 2023 as best CM in French football by a French sports news outlet.
Given we were looking for a CM and he played in the WC under Boateng, I wonder whether he was on our radar.
6 plus x2 , 8's =22This was a cheerful read this morning.
Yep, it’s massively frustrating we didn’t get another CM in, but the squad is more than good enough. Some of the over the top doomsday predictions are embarrassing.
I also wouldn’t be surprised to see us revert to a flatter three (6 and two 8’s) in midfield once Sheaf if fit, which will better suit the players we have.

They ultimately won nothing.Hope we achieve their success
He’s just been released by QPR - surely Latibeudiere is far better coverReggie cannon is available as mentioned previously. would be great RB/CB cover.
What is happening in the championship in the 2 seasons after this one then that will make it harder ??Good enough for what?
A top 10 finish with a chance at the playoffs - certainly, but it could have been much better. The imbalance is frustrating, most of our forwards would walk into any of our rivals first 11 yet only 1 of our midfielders would, and yet despite having 3 windows since the PO final we have failed in that task.
As I've said before, this season is (in my opinion) our best shot at promotion in DKs 5 year plan. Looking back it may have been better to sell Sheaf early this summer and use those funds to strengthen midfield, knowing that next summer we will still need to sort out CM and more than likely need to replace at least a couple of MVE, Wright, Simms and the whole process starts again.
Our best players being sold and rebuilding, again.What is happening in the championship in the 2 seasons after this one then that will make it harder ??
That’s football.Our best players being sold and rebuilding, again.
Had his contract terminated by mutual consent, a year into a 4 year contract. Had previous strife with Boavista about wages, got sent off twice in the league for them.Reggie cannon is available as mentioned previously. would be great RB/CB cover.
Well not quite. Lots of squad turnover with high potential but lower initial ability players.That’s football.
We will replace with better and he stronger ourselves.
