In fact I reckon our recruitment this summer has been geared around it. Weshall... I like you... but I have Carlos' book open on my laptop right now, and nowhere does he mention 3-5-2... or am I missing something very obvious? The only tactical formation he discusses is 4-3-3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oliver Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 6 minutes ago, Milan Missing Marble said: Not sure about Hendrick he was decent at this level to be fair but Robson-Kanu wasn't even good at this level. All Robson-Kanu as ever done is have a couple of half decent performances and a couple of goals for Wales and that's about it. A bit of a baffling signing for WBA to make. Not really much of a risk is it? He was a free agent and can't be on much money. The bigger risk is their other activity (or lack of). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesteel Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 I notice Derby signed Vydra but have shipped out Chris Martin who I think is a very good player. clearly downsized in the GK dept too by shipping grant out and playing Chris Weale. FFP obviously causing a concern there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The £10 million they got for Hendrick will probably keep them clear of any trouble, which is a shame as the business they've done in the last few windows has been utterly ridiculous.

I agree mate, don't mind WBA as a club personally, just think they'll probably be lucky that there's probably a few poor teams that will be their saving grace. 3 minutes ago, Oliver said: Not really much of a risk is it?

Aye, I agree they haven't done enough and that it's not a big risk, just mean he's not even good or barely good enough for this level let alone top flight level.

All I'll say is, there's no way we've just forked out a club record figure of £5 million on a known attacking winger to put him at left back for the season. I just don't wanna see you lose out on money that's all ;) He's so well known that quite a few, me included, have wondered who he is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Night-Owl Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 (edited) Don't take away the music Posted at23:33 Strangest story of deadline day comes from Italy's Rai Sport. It claims that Serie A side Chievo tried to sign former Southampton and Juventus striker Dani Osvaldo, but he told them he had retired from football to focus on his music career.

He's only got 100 Championship appearances to his name! (Of which, according to Transfermarkt, 66 were made at left wing, compared to only 12 at left back) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's ideal for us with his versatility, pace and crossing ability. He can cover a couple of positions and despite the price tag he's a very good signing I reckon. We could've done with another defender or two and maybe some physicality and height or another striker but we should be happy keeping a hold of our best players, and bringing in the likes of Abdi; Fletcher, Jones, Buckley and Reach in during this window.

WalthamOwl Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Shame we didn't manage to get a LB in. Would have been great if we managed to sign Rhodes but deep down think we knew we wouldn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
