A serious transfer window review thread...
hypochondriac replied to Unbelievable Jeff's topic in The Saints
Well if we are relying solely on that tactic then I am worried. We have plan a and that's about it. Losing puncheon and not replacing him is so disappointing because he offered us something different. -
A serious transfer window review thread...

Basically I would much rather have had a pacy direct attacking player (look at redmond for instance) than Wanyama. Wanyama may turn out great, but that was our greatest need from this Window imo along with a CB. -
A serious transfer window review thread...
hypochondriac replied to Unbelievable Jeff's topic in The Saints
For me it isn't about the ability of the players we have signed because no one can argue that they seem decent but it is the type of players that can be called into question. Lovren is a fantastic signing but for the other two I would argue that there were more pressing priorities. It is of course extremely early days but the problem now is that we are sort of forced into starting these two even if it disrupts the team. Breaking up the cork and Morgan combo seems like a bad idea to me and imo Wanyama may be a good player but cm was pretty much our strongest area last year. It will be interesting to see how the striker situation plays out but we had two main weaknesses last year CB and no directness and running with the ball when attacking. Pretty rubbish that we didn't address that glaring weakness and actually made it weaker. As Norwich showed we were completely predictable and easy to defend against. -

Good summary which I pretty much agree with. Disappointing not to replace puncheon. A season of 10th-15th awaits. -

Spent a lot of money but only addressed one of the two big weaknesses from last year. -
I don't consider myself similar to them other than having some views on sfc in common but Avenue saints seems to follow cb myself and Turkish around amongst others.

Ah bearsy you insult with love and that's all I ask. -
Do you just follow the likes of myself Turkish and cb around the board? It certainly seems that way.

Oh dear. I don't think you read what I said properly. -

Nah don't agree it's not about having just one more. You could argue we could do with another cb but I'm not too fussed about that. We needed pace since before last summer and certainly someone on the right but luckily punch stepped up last year so it wasn't so obvious. Have now lost him and mayuka. -

So looks like nothing today then. I'm a little disappointed that we are weaker on the right now than when the window opened and we have very little pace. We have clearly strengthened well in other areas though like cb which appears to be a great buy. I do think if we fail to strengthen on the right it will haunt us. -
It does make me lol when people have a moab at the state of the forum. This place has hardly changed in a out ten years apart from the fact you can no longer post tubgirl pictures.

Oh do pipe down avenue saint. Your bitterness is unseemly.
-
Tbf you make many posts that I would consider boring.
-
No honestly. It's exceedingly dull.
-
The worst ones are the people who keep starting threads about how awful the forum is.
-
Exactly. Our slow passing is just awful.
-
We were ****e today but not always. Our slow buildup play has to be dressed and for me the answer is another player.
-
Our buildup play was incredibly slow. We really missed puncheon...
-
Just awful. Concerning performance. Our build up play is painfully slow and predictable.

I heard there was one in bevois Valley that does a cracking breakfast as well. Can't recall the name though...

Yes I applaud him for that. I then denounce him for changing his mind a number if times and then doing not what he thought was best for Syria but what he thought would be most politically advantageous. Vile man.

Have we got nothing else to talk about on TSW?
hypochondriac replied to kwsaint's topic in The Saints
Someone post a tubigirl thread on the main board to liven things up. -
And the US of course who can pretty much do it on their own.

Enough for this job TBF.
