So you want us to go into matches with 2 left backs and 2 right backs on the bench? One that’s ready as a back up and one to get a few mins to bed them in? So taking up 4 sub places?

Without an unfortunately timed injury to Myko, Aznou would have had those few mins off the bench. You can’t legislate for both getting injured for the first game unless you sign 3 players for each position which isn’t tenable.

But at the same time, Aznou was signed as the backup for £8m, suggesting he is deemed ready to be back up by professionals within the sport, Apart from a load of baseless rumour on here/twotter suggesting Moyes didn’t select him because he wasn’t ready (rather than the truth of him being injured), you’ve only seen him play an hour vs Roma to make the assumption he isn’t ready.

Yeah i want them all on the bench. Like noah's ark. Two by two.
Nah just decent squad options. Like most clubs. Like most clubs wouldnt have been playing a player who's never played left back in his career on the opening game.

Probably right there.

I don't understand why the recruitment team have bought him if Moyes doesn't want him though.

Looks like a player with a lot of skill from what I've seen so hope Moyes does give him chances.

They have to think long term, all clubs do these days due to the rules. That doesn't suit old school guys like Moyes/Dyche, they want instant hits.

I’d hazard a guess that Seamus has signed some form of transition contract between a player and coach. There is no way he would expect to play regularly. Similarly if/when we have a bigger squad, I doubt he’ll be banging on the door asking for a move.
He has a role. The squad is a mess and needs direction and leaders. Seamus is Baines but slightly younger.

I wouldnt disagree with that. Unfortnately it doesnt change we've been playing a near 40yr old at right back. A centre half at right back. Or seamus who tends to last 20 minutes.

He is right tbf, his targets are no more ambitious than Moyes, I mean we wasted the first month of the window chasing the managers unrealistic targets, the majority who were never in a million years signing for us.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing mate.
There have been literally hundreds of posts on here slagging off unambitious targets as being Moyes choices. The fella seemingly can't do right for doing wrong.
What is wrong in trying to sell the club to better players to see how it goes ?
We have tried , may not have suceeded , but we had to try.
If you would have been told 2 weeks ago that we would have got Grealish , KDH and Dibling , you would have snapped their hand off.
Your views on Moyes are surprisingly negative , and surprise me.

No serious source, but linked along with west spam with a loan deal for hector fort, some kid from Barca. Weird one like as a right back link.

Would think be a low cost loan and gives us a different profile at fb as is more of an attacker. Maybe with aznou gives us a chance to use them both as wb
