Stu Armstrong on a free anyone...?

KWP having a go at his team mates there for lack of movement? Quite right too.

Yep. You can't imagine the likes of Pep or Mourinho (for example) waiting until half time to make the obvious changes this game needs 'now'...

We're missing a Stuart Armstrong type presence... Someone who can link midfield and attack. KWP the closest to fulfilling that role at the moment... Dibling maybe...?

And their player clutching his shin when Downes caught him on the underside of his boot. An overreaction that Diaz would be proud of...

WTF was that?!

"F**k me.... 5-0 and a hat trick for Stewart when he came on for the last 30 minutes. Never saw that coming"

He'll definitely beef up our squad.

You're very welcome, sir. It's my absolute pleasure. You and I together will defeat this thicko revolution...

*losing

...

Fixed it for you...

CCTV footage of Bijlow's medical has just been released. Looks like he's definitely going to pass...

Was he caught blowing Nobby Solano's trumpet...?

Yep, this. You'd have thought that the experience with Stewart would have given our recruitment department a 'once bitten, twice shy' mentality, but it would appear not. Obviously hope we have a different outcome with this fella but having reservations is a legitimate concern. Anyway, I'm hearing Biljow will be ready to start "in two weeks", so all good...

"Striker" is a broad term. Are we sure that Archer is a "Pelle" (or Lambert... Or Ings...) type? From what I've seen, he's more of a 'No.10' type striker rather than a 'No.9'...? I still think we need a 'proper' centre forward to complete the set... (Stewart would of course be that man, if he wasn't perpetually "two weeks away"...)

Fair point, although this new fella appears to be a tad more prolific than Mara, looking at his goalscoring stats...

An actual centre-forward too.... blimey...

*lose (welcome to the 52% thicko club... )

I'm sure our crack* medical team are on the case.... *interchangeable word

As you say.... We're "almost there" although I'm still concerned that we might be going into yet another season without a Lambert / Pelle / Ings type striker... i.e. a centre forward whose main attribute is their clinical finishing. Is Archer that man...? I'm yet to be convinced...

Because we should be playing the best players in every position rather than picking teams based on loyalty and/or sentimentality...? If Ugochukwu is better than Smallbone then he starts... surely?
