You can still agree a deal though. Just said that interest is real but thats all for now .

I guess what many expected was us to actually purchase a long term, first team, competent right back for the first time in years. Then someone like KWP could be a great option to provide cover for both FB positions at no further transfer...

Blue frontier podcast (previously American Toffee podcast) recommended this guy Jashwari amongst others... Moves and plays like a blend of Gareth Barry, Declan Rice and David Unsworth ... Impressive

He can certainly ping a long ball with his left foot. Can he do anything else?

I reckon some of their fans must be watching subs getting made in september and thinking "who the feck is that coming on? When did we sign him?"

I don't know how their supporters can get excited about signings when they seem to make at least one per week when the window is open.

I personally would rather pay the money for someone maybe a bit younger than Beto who potentially has a higher ceiling. Maybe we bring in an older, more experienced head on loan or on a free in addition to that as well. Send Chermitti out on loan...

Dyche is available...

Strange one this - he surely knows his game time will be limited. Perhaps he is thinking that with Tarks and JB now both having dodgy hammies and likely to be late back to preseason, there is a chance to stake a claim... again. The only...

Main position is LW. No thanks.

Not keen on either, tbh. We should be scouting the next Grealish or picking up a 25 year old Soucek alike from Europe somewhere. Fed up of paying top dollar for over the hill "premier league proven" players. We've been doing that for years and...

How it should work 1: DOF is hired 2: DOF appoints a manager which 'fits' the club strategy e.g playing style, mentality etc 3: Manager discusses player recruitment with DOF and gives him the specifications on what he's looking for 4: DOF...

But the reality of football is there are very few managerial dynasties these days and a player on a 5 year contract will likely see 2-3 different managers. You can pay off a manager but not a team. So a DoF is there to form a coherent squad...

You get it backwards. Club should hire managers who play a certain style. England is an outlier where managers have signed the players. Everywhere else you have head coaches who don't sign players (they often do have input, though).

I'm just concerned about his recruitment record since leaving. It's absolutely monstrous and extremely short term. We have to hope he has got a backroom role lined up because i dread to think of him signing short-term stopgaps.
