Baird of the land

Definitely A handy time to score. been a even contest. still not a fan of our midfield.

3rd choice striker in a one striker team is a pretty tough sell, unless it is an u21 player.

Is the u21 player who scored 2 goals against everton u21 not a striker. Princewil U.......

We've already replaced one of them with the dobbin arrival

And the Abbott move is back to being much more underwhelming.

Assume he wants to go to Salzburg

The buy option makes me feel better about the Abbott move. We're clearly going for better depth, with a side of a dice roll on talent. My main issue with squad is us being weaker in midfield this season. Less concerned with striker than some, as Mubama has looked ok to me.

Yeah those comments feel very much a massaging of the truth.

Take it edozie really wanted to go to Salzburg

On the surface the move feels underwhelming if he’s a talent and we have a guaranteed option then I guess it feels better. otherwise it feels like deinvestment.

Yeah last season we got fellows. Hopefully we can utilise this money to get a talented younger championship cb. Wouldn’t mind someone like McConville at Norwich.

Did archer not tend to play deeper when he did play 2nd half of the season

Is dobbin not already effectively the archer replacement? As for downs, not sure what sort of player we’d be looking to bring in to be 3rd choice striker and play very few minutes.

Only seen the highlights so can’t comment on his performance. Reading comments doesn’t seem that the midfield was dire but neither was it excellent.

Great to see how well larin and azaz have started (and now scienza back up to speed. Great to beat a promotion rival emphatically, let’s hope we can build momentum off the back of it.
