Transfer Speculation Thread 2014/15

Our "second choice" XI would look something like this:

----------------------Kuszczak-------------------------

Doherty----Ebanks-Landell------Hause--------Ricketts

------------Saville------------Evans------------------

Van La Parra-----------Jacobs------------Bancessi

---------------------Afobe-------------------------


Yeah, we have no strength in depth whatsoever.

Or do we need more than 22 players capable of playing in the Championship?

What we need is to get promoted. Are we good enough?

I think you will find we have loaned out Saville, Bancessi has not played in Championship, Ricketts has been offered out on loan, Jacobs sits on the bench but ain't used......

Where are the options off the bench in attack??
Where are the game changers??

That's why we had a pile od defenders on the bench the last few games

We are short of a number ten
We are also short of midfield general

Very happy we still have Sako....very happy we signed Afobe....but we lacked the intent showed by Derby and we have a woefully thin squad

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

It can't be "woefully thin" if I can happily take out every single one of our first choice players and put out a team that looks alright.

You do realise we'll never field that team? That our first XI won't all get Ebola tomorrow?

It's an illustration that we have a replacement somewhere for the first choice who is better than Leon Clarke standard and our squad is not "woefully thin".

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

By the way I would like you to define what "midfield general" means (this and "intent" seem to have replaced "ambition" and "snotter"). I mean I'd hate you to be spouting cliches that don't mean anything. That would be terrible.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Derby spent less than us this January. I say it again. Less.

Do deals only fucking count once Jim White gets his yellow tie on?

How much was Afobe?

 

[Edgmond Wolf]

If you think we don't have a thin squad, you continue to think that

If you think we have had a great window, you continue to think that

What happened when we lost Dicko.....we didn't have a replacement.....solved that by Afobe

What happened when Sako was out? We lacked the creative spark....nope not solved

What happened if we lose Stears?.....we really have the experienced CB to come in?.....

Take your head out of the sand

 

[Lycan]

You should probably change your sig Edgmond.

 

[Lycan]

How much was Afobe?

£2M+

JOS on the mix just said we've got the weakest squad in the league :icon_lol:

You profess to have watched football for years??

Buy a fucking diary

That's funny coming from this forum!

No mate

Kenny is the only one I trust

Morgan, Moxey, I would change them tomorrow

Again, I have no idea what this means.

 

[thehistorymakers]

£2M+

That is intent.

 

[wanderer89]

What's Morgan done wrong? Money's proven to be there, yet we've not spent, how's that his fault?

 

[thehistorymakers]

£2M+

That shows intent.

:icon_lol:

Where has this one come from? We're fine at centre half.

Oh btw you only need 3 full stops to form ellipses. I know how much you enjoy bashing away at your keyboard but it looks really weird.

 

[thehistorymakers]

Is it Sir Jack's burial on the 3rd?

Take your head out of the sand

I mean this nonsense for instance.

Let's sign a backup centre half in case Stearman gets injured, because none of Ebanks-Landell, Hause or Iorfa will do.

Must be at least 28 years old though.
