Don't get what you mean.Convenient.
We still need a competitive squad !I’d personally rather we didn’t sign Binks, Kitching is future captain material I can’t see Binks ever getting in over him and he won’t be cheap either.
Definitely agree , with Callum and Kasey in form and playing just behind Simms it negates the desperate need for a number 8 . We are in need of a better ball player behind them thoughor how good O'Hare has looked, and Palmer being on it. Takes some pressure off goals from midfield. Latibeaudiere being a decent back up as well. Gives us time to find the ideal no. 8 now or in the summer. Do need a body in the middle now, though. If Sheaf or Eccles gets injured, I'd be worried.
That's an area where Gus was very good at , he used to hit a lot of first time balls and put us on the front foot
Both are very good players but currently lack that real creative spark . If we could find a player with Gus' range of passing it could be the missing piece of the jigsawAbsolutely. Sometimes it’s frustrating that Sheaf or Eccles can’t make those passes. They need to be beside a player who can do that. We would be so much more dangerous.
better to have a left footed lcb in a 4 though as it means the passing lanes at are available are slightly betterAlso with Binks if we're playing 4 at the back then dominant foot is not so much of an issue. With 3 CBs you ideally want the left CB to be left footed. But with 2 CBs it doesn't really matter if they're both left or right footed.
So Binks isn't just competing for one spot with Kitching, he's competing with Thomas too and would be a great permanent squad member.
We need atleast three CBs We have Thomas, Kitching & Binks, plus McFadz for the rest of the season and Joel L who can played there.Also with Binks if we're playing 4 at the back then dominant foot is not so much of an issue.

Will he be happy to come as a back up to Kitching? He’s ok but he’s 22 I can’t see him developing that much and he won’t come cheap. Thomas and Kitching are here for the next few years you’d think. Id want any centre back we splash out on to offer something different with the potential to be better than Kitching Thomas. That isn’t Binks for me.What if Kitching got injured? You need quality backup
Good take, agreedyeah, instead of an 8 we probably now need a 6 with more expansive passing range than what we have
Binks is quality, he oozes class for me. He can defend, can pass and will only get betterWill he be happy to come as a back up to Kitching? He’s ok but he’s 22 I can’t see him developing that much and he won’t come cheap. Thomas and Kitching are here for the next few years you’d think.

You can’t know how a player is going to progress at the age of 22Will he be happy to come as a back up to Kitching? He’s ok but he’s 22 I can’t see him developing that much and he won’t come cheap.

Wouldn’t better cost more ?Game of opinions, I haven’t seen enough from him so far that I’d be willing to pay the money id imagine they would want. I think we could get better.
better to have a left footed lcb in a 4 though as it means the passing lanes at are available are slightly better
think of the natural curve of a ball played by a left footed player out to a lb, lcm or lw , it curves left to right meaning it curves forward into their paths
if a right footed player makes the same pass it curves left to right meaning it is slightly behind the recipient a lot of the time slowing play down and making them check back
this is why managers want a lf and rf combo even in a back 4
Been reported today he’d be happy to join us at the end of the seasonI don’t think he’ll come as back up
and then you give the opposition a better chance of intercepting the pass as you start the ball closer themWell then the right footer just starts it further in front of the LB!
It's far more important in a 3 than a 4.
Yes, they've had to change the data inputted into the new scouting algorithm that we brought a few weeks back. Only problem is, Doug won't splash out for decent internet so by the time it's crunched the numbers, our targets have moved elsewhere.....Perhaps the change of system has changed who we are looking to sign
I think the fact he plays in unglamorous positions on the pitch makes him go under the radar. Been very solid this year.I know people are suggesting another centre half , midfield cover etc , but has any of you taken a good hard look at Lats , as he covers so many positions & is quality. He hardly puts a foot wrong & at only 24 , we have signed another gem
Yeah been a great signing, I was dismissive of him playing in midfield but he’s very good in that holding role.I know people are suggesting another centre half , midfield cover etc , but has any of you taken a good hard look at Lats , as he covers so many positions & is quality. He hardly puts a foot wrong & at only 24 , we have signed another gem
We’ll need a centre half come the summerWhy are people still talking about Brekalo?
We’ve got Thomas, Lati, Binks, Kitching and Fadz, 5 people for just two spots…
It was a tedious link at best, not going to happen and we don’t need him.
That'll be Adjei if we get him, maybe even loan him back to Hammarby so he playsWe’ll need a centre half come the summer

When was the last time we had an Aussie on our books?
Binks is only a loan
This will be Fadz last season and if we can get Brekalo it allows us to potentially let Fadz go out and get games if that’s what he wants
As Brekalo’s season over there has ended, it would be the ideal time for a snatch and grab. With him just coming back from injury it gives us time to bed him in.
That way Lati can be back up for Kitching and Thomas could be back up for Thomas next season.
Four fantastic centre backs vying for 2… possibly 3 spots.
Just because a back 5 didn’t work this season with the players we have right now doesn’t mean next season with the right players we ‘might’ go back to a back 5… Robins is just playing with the hand he’s been dealt
