We should be hiring the bloke in pajamas. Sneak him into the oppo dressing room and job done.

Decent analysis but minus points for using the phrase "onboarding"

Thought McAtee was at Sheffield United? Anyway, they want him back along with a number of premier league clubs and Man City have apparently already rejected a 30M bid from someone. I can't see it happening if I'm honest. Most likely is he ends up going on loan to a premier league club.

Just because you think you can do better. You strikers are all the same. Massive egos.

I think we should play Alex Law up front.

It's speculation. What the fuck are you on this thread for if you don't want to read it?

Would have thought Adams going was always in the mind of Wilcox so you'd imagine that he would have replacements in mind but the only strikers I can remember us being linked with this window are Sydney Van Hooijdonk, Andi Zeqiri and Piroe. Piroe would have been fine but the other two are a bit questionable for me. Neither have great stats and that's in leagues inferior to the championship never mind the premier league.

Yep, very strange. Doesn't appear to favour Piroe at all. Fucking annoying if Swansea can convince Piroe to sign a new contract but we can't do the same for Tella and Smallbone. I'll give Che a pass because he's at least proved (limited) worth in the premier league.

Alcatraz was just off the coast of San Francisco, same as it always is. Not sure about the others.

Yeah, could be that. To be honest I didn't know that the link was from last December - I guess that could make a difference now. Had a quick look at the highlights - difficult to really tell how good (or not) he is. Reminded me of Hojberg a bit.

I'd rather not but fill your boots, I'm not stopping you.

Doesn't sound like he's too keen to move anywhere this summer. He said this after being linked with Rangers: Kerber said: "The international interest is a great honor for me and is also the result of my performances so far this season. "However, I can completely rule out a transfer this season. "FC Saarbrucken is the club of my heart and my dream is to see them in Bundesliga II before thinking about any transfer. "And I still have a lot planned for the future with my club."

You OK hun?

Hopefully we can sell him to Burnley or Leverkusen before he actually plays for us.

Fuck no, that's a race I hope Leeds win.

I just hope we don't get Haaland in to replace Che. Apart from his goals I don't really see what he offers the team.

You’d like to hope that some players would only be allowed to leave if it’s feasible to replace. For me that would include Che, ABK, Tella and KWP.

No, Sulemana wasn’t there and neither was Simeu. Just realised that Ballard wasn’t either. Funniest moment was watching Sam AA tackle Tall Paul. Edozie and Larios sat out the sprints but took part in the ball oriented exercises.

No McCarthy at the open training session.

He should probably consider breaking that algorithm - it's the only way to be successful.

There's no point asking about the crap of last season. It's done and over with and we'll get the same answers we got in the Echo interviews so don't ask about that. Instead ask about what we can expect in the next couple of weeks, such as: What positions would you like to strengthen? What qualities do you feel the starting eleven is currently missing? Which players have you slapped a "not for sale sign" on? (surely we can financially do that now?) How close are we to bringing in players that you want, rather than the ones you've inherited?

I don't think we can afford to piss around with McCarthy. Any slightest interest by any club and he should be driven there immediately and left wrapped in swaddling on their doorstep.

JWP has just emailed me personally. That's pretty good considering everything else he's got going on. I've never even met him either!

Just an opinion mate. Personally think that A Armstrong has his confidence up and deserves to keep starting. Edozie has looked good but not delivered anything yet, needs to work on his end product. Two defensive mids seems overkill to me, we’re not playing Man City.

Having listened to the Plymouth fan on TSP last night, I'm going to be confident and go for a 1-3 win. Seems like Plymouth don't have a lot of height and don't often score from set pieces, and they also like to play football rather than be direct. I think that's the kind of team we'll play better against. Team mostly picks itself. We should be playing one of Downes or Charles in the defensive mid position and then it's a question of whether Smallbone is fit or not. Hopefully he's back. Agree with others that Che deserves to start and A Armstrong doesn't deserve to be dropped so Edozie to miss out there.
