[Blue Baggie]

This squad is proving how wrong Bilic was to put his trust in the Championship players. Some of them don’t have the bottle for the fight
It is up to Sam to bring in the right calibre of player to fight , Deeney would be a good start. Along with a left back as Gibbs is to fragile and a midfield enforcer.

We have to be careful we do not do our normal trick with strikers when in the Prem.  We have this habit of playing most of our games in our own half and then blaming the striker for not scoring.  Even when the striker gets the ball he is so far from goal with no support it makes them look far worse than they are.  As an example look at Rondon, went on loan to Newcastle and was popping in 1 in 3, in China he is hitting 1 in 2.   On top of that, I do not want to see us keep signing geriatrics, Deeney was a decent player in his day but at 33 next birthday where is the future planning, we crisis manage all the time so every season we need to replace half the team?   Deeney is not hitting 1 in three in the Championship, for me the only thing Deeney has going for him is we could probably afford him, which is usually not a good thing either.

We need a 25 year old, fit Deeney
