they would be magnificent signings but I can't, sadly, see either coming.
I hope darlow starts, better still a new keeper. but I think meslier starts.
one big error next Sunday and he's done though. finished

It could complicate things having a cup run as we already have to fit the Coventry game in and it`s likely we progress to the next round when we beat Millwall and another game to fit in.
Our squad isn`t that big so a couple of signings needed.
Again I know we only played Harrogate but the defenders looked more comfortable with Darlow behind them then they do with Meslier.

And Gnonto again doesn`t appear to be the answer up front or as the 10 despite what Farke is saying.

I think the realisation may even be hitting home to Willy that rather than being the Premier League quality player he thought he was at the start of the 23/24:season he is in fact just a back up player to a decent Championship team. His lack of aerial presence and pace mean he falls well short as our starting striker and his lack of awareness and poor decision making rule him out as a number 10. He’s a decent sub or stand in when we have injuries within our current squad.

Agree about Ampadu, he’s very rusty still, his distribution was poor. Thought he dropped deep far to often also.. he was almost a centre back at times

Gnonto isn’t very good at 10, he’s not got the vision.

I think we’d be very very foolish not to bring in a forward this month. We’ve clearly got the money.. let’s get some insurance and make ourselves too good for the rest
