No selection headache for me. Hopefully we ditch the 5 at the back but I know he won't change his midfield shape, so i'd go; ---------Ramsdale Suga----THB---ABK---KWP ----------Downes ------Fernandes---Dibling AA--------Archer--------BBD Very tough leaving SAA out to be honest.

This was supposedly in response to the issues around fixture congestion but I cannot for the life of me remember the logic they tried to use. Whatever it was, it didn't make sense.

You're a legend, thank you. Some really good passing, movement and finishing in amongst that lot. Get SAA and Fernandes in the team right away.

Can we change the title please that was confusing as fuck considering he just got done playing for us. EDIT: Thanks Lighthouse.

We need to be keeping ABK and making him first choice. I'm at work, @Master Bates any chance you could put all 5 goal clips in one post for quick viewing please mate?

Is Blackmore saying Ryan Fraser out of hope or has he mentioned actually hearing something?

True, it's a brand new backline that's never played together and probably never will again.

Ronnie Edwards looks poor i'm sorry.

Maybe, but we won't be selling for a loss. Not many are going to pay more than £25million for a keeper who is realistically only good enough to be first choice for 15 out of the 20 Prem teams.

That's huge. Could be our number one for 10 years.

And kept a few others who didn't struggle, but only because their game doesn't revolve around actually doing anything of note.

Ok so really not sure how a player joining Goztepe on loan from another club benefits us.

All up front? Highly doubt it. I'd wager the majority of that will come later.

How much money do we realistically think a club like Flamengo has paid for Alcaraz and is it really going to make much of a difference to what we can bring in?

Excellent! One less creative flair player to worry about. More solid, sideways passing hard working bearded banter lads please.

Probably, unless one of them puts in superb performances to warrant being given a chance. That's the point.

Not sure what you're getting at. Loans end.

It's probably a little dodgy TBF and we may be investigated for it in the future. If these players were signed by Goztepe or Valenciennes and played out of their skins, they would be worth a lot more when we sign them. If we signed them below market price we'd be investigated for sure. Buying them directly and loaning them means when they come back there is no fee involved, even if they end up worth tens of millions.

Don't see anything wrong with it personally. Can see it doing well for company events.

Not sure if you're suggesting we sign Travers but he is absolutely terrible. Only keeper that was worse than Bazunu last time we were in the Prem.

Guess the club really are planning to go back down and get promoted again with a stronger side if we're signing another Brazilian who will need to go to Goztepe for a year before he can play for us. Next summer in the championship we'll have 4 or 5 players coming back from loan to them eligible to play for us all of a sudden.

He's agreed a contract so all I need to do is load the game and progress one day and he'll be announced.

What are we calling that then, the wishbone formation?

We'll have to coach that out of him before he can start. Should have cut inside and laid it off.

Brighton could end up being this seasons Villa. Them and Fulham have made some excellent signings.
