David Marshall.......Don't need, spend the £5m elsewhere. Buy Demarai Gray and put him in goal because I guarantee you he will not play on the wing.

Jonny Evans.........£12m....Really? He's not worth that.

Dennis Praet..........£7m, never really heard of him until the hype and if press to be believed doesn't want to come and prefers the Vile.?

Demarai Gray, YES PLEASE but he will cost more than £4m

I've got an Idea, Play Chester who cost £8m in the CB role which is where he plays, Play wingers on the wings and not Gardner and Morrison.

Try Gamboa at Right Back which is where he plays, Poco at Left back which is where he plays. Both are good enough IMO.

I agreed we needed TP last season BUT after our first 2 games (and yes I know its very early in the season) I have been bitterly disappointed with our tactics and team selection. Some decisions have been baffling.

I watched MOTD and I have to say ourselves and Sunderland look embarrassing compared to the rest, NO PACE, NO WIDTH, NO PASSION.

Sadly I am not excited about incoming signings at the minute because apart from Rondon (know nothing about) and Gnabry (a new talent as hardly played for the Arse) and maybe Lambert.

Oh for another Bryan Robson, Laurie Cunningham, Cyrille Regis, Len Cantello, Bomber Brown, Willie Johnston & Kevin Phillips. Any of you not old enough you will never know what you missed.

A points a point come the end of the season BUT we are desperate for flair, attacking football and something to lift the fans. I will defer judgement on TP but I'm already running out of patience....PUT PLAYERS IN THEIR NORMAL POSITIONS!!  Rant over

Pretty much agree with that WorldClass but I still have hope that TP knows what he's doing and things will improve (if they don't I give up)

The problem now is that non of ' Bryan Robson, Laurie Cunningham, Cyrille Regis, Len Cantello, Bomber Brown, Willie Johnston & Kevin Phillips' would sign for us. Those days have gone.
I remember Atkinson taking our best with him to Man U and hating it - BUT - (obviously) Man U were the bigger team, bigger ground, more fans, more money - as much as I hated them for it (and still do) they'd sort of won that right. Now anyone billionaire can pick a team and play Football Manager with it.

I think we all want the team - whoever is in it - to have a flipping go. I want Man City to come to The Shrine and cack their pants knowing none of our players would get in their team but will battle for the whole game. They can take their 3 points but should wake up knowing they'd earned them...........................

Sorry, forgot which thread this is.......... No need for keeper, Evans is pants and please sign a midfield with creativity
