Reminder To The Board on 16:41 - Nov 25 by magicdaps10 | Needing strengthening does not mean us spending money we dont have........why people still think it involves spending money we dont have us just baffling. We had a cracking system, buying younger players who had not achieved their potential and suited the system, that system went out the window when Jenkins started acting DOF. Scouting has been our weakness in recent years, lets see what Kyle McCauley can do within the clubs budget AND keep Jenkins as far away from this department as possible. Remember Ferrie Bodde.....50k. |
Agree totally, but many on here don't seem to consider buying young players as strengthening. They need to cost millions. | |

Reminder To The Board on 16:06 - Nov 25 by jack247 | I’m not sure. He had the same personnel, minus Declan John, available in August. It was pretty clear who his main target was at the time. For some reason (probably not fit enough to play further forward) we had Fer there yesterday. Grimes has probably done better than expected. |
He knows a lot more about his squad now than he did in August. | | | |
Reminder To The Board on 16:55 - Nov 25 with 1317 views | TheKirkyLife | Loving the debate. I want to see investment across everywhere to be honest. We all remember Michu's value in comparison to the signings that came after - the price tag lies more often than not. I feel we need a new LB to allow Grimes to flourish in midfield. Speaking of which I wouldn't mind seeing another. I like the look of Jones and Shankland as potential ins as well. Prem in anything more than three years should be classed a failure considering our starting position. | | | |

Agreed, though he’s still playing Fer in a role where he can be a liability. The exact role he wanted to strengthen. Unless you think he’ll get a left back and play Grimes there? | | | |

I think his selections suggest he sees Olsson as a bigger weakness than Fer & Fulton. | | | |

I agree Grimes' best position is CDM from what I've seen so far this season. As for LB, I think Olsson did well when he came on yesterday and can still do a job there. Great crosser of the ball. Probably the best we have. Hits the byline and think he'll pick out Wilf more than anyone else will. Think he's definitely worth keeping and maybe use u23 or buy a young up-n-cummer. As for Jones and Shankland. Defo keen on them both if we can get them in, which sounds possible due to their situations. | |

Suspect Olsson is only involved at the moment due to a lack of options and we won't try too hard to stand in his way come January. File alongside Narsingh, Dyer and Routledge as those whose wages we'd rather someone else was paying right now. | |

True I guess. Hence why he's been trying Grimes there I suppose. John hardly fancied at all in that case. Not going to be easy to find a decent LB imo. Keep Olsson. He can't be on that much bread. More than competent at this level. | |

Reminder To The Board on 14:36 - Nov 25 by 34dfgdf54 | Potter knows himself we are short of a defensive midfielder, hence his long pursuit of Woods. I’m hoping his scouting team have someone lined up for January. |
I must be the only one on here that thinks Grimes could perform well enough at DM ? I'd like to see him get a good run of games. Unlike Fer I think he's earned it, he's been good for us this season. Edit, some more share the same opinion on page two. I think we would look a lot more cohesive. I wonder what Fer's stats were yesterday? Must make for grim reading. [Post edited 26 Nov 2018 6:19]
