Which it is, right? |
Of course it is. That's why the board is so worried the 40k stadium won't be big enough. [Post edited 21 Aug 2018 12:09]

We've gone from signing the likes of Bright Samuel, Wheeler and Smyth to Rangel and trying to sign Routledge, Hemed and George Thorne. if thats not a change in direction I don't know what is.
I get replacing the experienced players but doing it through the loan market is an expensive and risky way to do it |
Only that doing it through permanent signings is a even riskier and more expensive way of doing it.
There was me thinking the club had signed several players for the U23 squad in the summer just as they did in previous years with Samuel, Smyth, Eze etc. | | | |

What useful up-to-date information is your opinion of Bassong based on?
I know nothing about him except what I have read and old stuff I've seen on Telly.
The chance of signing him seems like 100/1 to me. Perhaps he was only there to fill in for one U23 game. |
Why? hasn't played for 18 months and we give him a game in U23s. For what purpose? |  | | |

Structure seemed pretty sound till the summer. JFH, Ramsey and Holloway all made signings from either lower league clubs or younger hungrier players that fit into the budget. For whatever reason that now appears to have gone out of the window. |
Bit early to say that based on 2 actual signings - Leinster DOES fit, Angel doesn't.
AS IT STANDS, taking away all the ifs, buts and maybes we ARE still looking at young, 'hungry' etc etc players. | | | |

Maybe a bit early but seeing who we are linked with and seeing the team being picked which doesn't have many kids in is a bit of a departure from last season |  | | |

Thing is these are players we're being linked with, just rumours, or stories being drummed up by agents as seems to be the case with Routledge.
No doubt given the players who have left we need a couple of wise heads/leaders (where's the leadership in the current team since Ned left?). But let's see who we get in first before we start sharpening the pitchforks. |  |

Just a shame our manager won't sign them as he only wants players he knows | | | |

Did he tell you that outside the ground at a game? |  |

I could make a case for Angel. Furlong and Kaka should be our long-term choices, one's injured and the other is inexperienced. Angel as a temporary measure isn't the worst idea in the world.
Trouble is that all the rumoured signings are old, while Manning is put out on loan. Which makes Dave Mc's theory plausible. Add in the start to the season and the subs vs WBA and it looks like McClaren literally didn't know what he was doing when he signed up. | | | |
