He played in Spain. Not exactly difficult to watch la liga games and scout players.

Have we literally just bought Niasse again?

That's a stretch , he scored 11 goals in la Liga not the Russian league I think it means he needs time to develop, Niasse was perpetually raw

"We need 8-9"

A week later: "We need 5-6"

Another week on: "We need 4"

It's not like we're signing loads to bring those figures down...

But we are bringing that number down?

Start of the Summer Moyes wanted 10, we've brought in 6-7 so far, 4 more is 10/11?

At least ifBr

“We have found a rawness in him”

Should we hire some scouts to find these things out?

Why have we not given the lad a locker?

Barry is a kid with one year in Spain of course he's raw

Spot on the bench taken by a cheerleader then

Must be a youth team keeper we can stick on the bench

Wouldn’t shock me, we think our new young striker is a bit raw so instead of getting a proper team and system in place to help him out and get him up to speed faster, we instead block his pathway and development with another over the hill, overpaid striker and don’t address the actual key imbalances in the side and then wonder why another new striker hasn’t magically solved our issues

Why do the club do these things

 

[Nymzee]

You guys watched his clips and pre-season and didn't think he was raw or something?

 

[ToffeeTim]

I dont think we can expect to get through the season without 3 more signings

Right midfield / right forward
Midfield
Right back

These are the priorities and essential. Everything else is not needed and takes up funds better used elsewhere

Moyes' rationale was that he is such an inspirational figure in the locker room, okay then absorb him into the coaching stuff or hire him as a motivational speaker as notable as he was for this club he's clearly beyond his capacity to play professional football anymore especially if he wasn't on the pitch Monday deputizing as left back. We can't afford any ceremonial players right nowv

I’ve a feeling Coleman will lead the team out on Sunday


Then go off injured after 10 mins

 

[brieverton]

You want that to be fair.

I agree friction is healthy mate, but it has become a running theme over the last week or so and it would appear that we're losing out as a result.

At this stage, it should be Marc Watts stepping in, as the most senior TFG representative at the club.

You don't have to make a lot of leaps to deduct that it's Moyes on one side and Kinnear/Hammond on the other.

I don't know how you solve that mess but it is a mess and does need solving yesterday.

Hammond is going to turn us into Leeds...I can feel it in my bones.
