3 at the back and picking Lyanco doesn't work. We don't need to be rocket scientists to know that. Jones must be some kind of nutcase.

It was the correct decision but the owners should have done it in the summer and appointed someone with some pedigree. No need o be smug because Ralph had to go with his record. The fact that RS contrived to cock everything up doesn't make the decision to sack Ralph wrong.

RS need to bite the bullet and admit they got the appointment of Jones horribly wrong. They owe that to the paying fans because they are having the piss taken out of them. Press the reset button, get a new manager in pronto and start spending money in this window. If not we may as well give up. It's a total clusterfuck. Semmens needs to come up with reasons why he chose these charlatans as well instead of hiding in his ivory tower.

It's no wonder the team amble onto the field resembling a bunch of Christians about to be thrown to the lions. We need a leader to build them up not a defeatist who sends them out beaten before a ball is even kicked. I thought Jones was at least going to have some spirit in him but he's coming across as a bit of a wimp who wants to get his excuses in before the match has kicked off. This is one we must win so a rallying cry is needed not all this pathetic whimpering. Jeez.

I've already explained that, in my view, the type of goals he scores are spectacular in the main. He's scored goals against top opposition including a superb hat trick against Spurs. Still, probably not good enough for us.

That's fair enough. Only my view on what I've seen of him so far. I think it's even tougher for youngsters if they're very small especially at this level. He might well fill out and toughen up a bit because he looks to have a bit of skill.

Like a twelve year old kid playing against men.

I'd suggest you look at his skills videos which will give you an idea of the type of spectacular goals he scores.

Funny how Leicester fans had the same view as most of us though.

Until we make a derisory offer paid in instalments.

The owners and club are a complete joke. Bunch of frauds. He'll probably go to one of our close rivals for not much money and score a bunch of goals including against us. If Everton do get him we could be his first opponents at Goodison - we all know the script for that.

If you can regularly smash the ball in the top corner from outside the box it doesn't matter what league you're playing in because you'll find those pockets of space and no keeper in the world saves many of those. Still, we've got a whole host of goalscorers just queuing up to get on the pitch,fortunately we're spoilt for choice in that department 🙂

Yeah but our buffoons think they can get him for 6million Euros.

Absolutely right. If we want him put the frigging money on the table and stop pissing in the wind.

We could learn a thing or two from them regarding the dark arts. We're far too timid all over the park.

Not amazing - they're a good, well drilled side whereas we are shite.

We don't play between the lines because there is no intelligent movement from our players - it's just basics really but way beyond our players and coaches it would seem.

Yeah and while we dither some other club will nip in and beat us to his signing. We are at the stage where we need to be proactive and get some deals across the line even if it means paying more than we'd like. Penny pinching will be our downfall if we aren't careful.

Wish this had been kept under wraps until we'd signed him. Now it's out in the open we'll likely be gazumped.

Judging by his skills videos this guy has some shot on him and sticks everything in the top or bottom corner. Maybe if he comes he could each Che how to do it. Some cracking goals and hardly any tap-ins.

If he was scoring goals Villa wouldn't be considering selling him - that's always assuming they are which I doubt.

Don't we pay people a lot of money to select target signings and get deals over the line?

If he really is as good as his skills videos then yes please.

Forest are above us in the table.

Yes, teams around us seem to have no problem getting bits of business done early in the window. We continue to blunder along towards certain relegation like lemmings off a cliff. Given up on SR now. Bunch of charlatans.
