If I was in his position and money would take a few months off, escape the English winter and see what offers I get in the Spring. Not sure I would be prepared to wait for him that long. Strikes me as single minded and ambitious, would fit right in here Suspect he'll get better offers, way before DC does the sensible thing. Which illustrates why we will always be also rans. Here is the ideal candidate, but we won't get a sniff as DC isn't proactive enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( if we can keep any of them fit ) I'm not convinced by that. If we announced a fire sale, how many players would interest the clubs in the top half of the Championship? We have a handful of excellent players for this level, a few who once were or have the potential to be in the future, but mostly mediocre performers. And many of the predictions coming into the season backed that up. Very few saw us as realistic promotion contenders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially one who's first though may be how are we going to score a goal rather then what's the best way not to let one in. And that appiles to Jos and Carlos.

I'm still yet to be convined that Rhodes will work out in the long run because his overall game is so limited and dependent on others, but it is obviously to our advantage if he does. But it would be good to see us try a more settled core of players and to try and take the game to the opponents more. Hopefully the returns of Matias and Forestieri will help in the latter regard.

Wilder knows. That's why he's crying about us spending 40k a week on players. He's also knows he needs an expensive striker and without it they won't be near promotion.

Pinky Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 If he isn’t at least approached then we literally have no ambition: Extremely successful pretty much everywhere he had managed. But more importantly took both Watford and Fulham gt relegation fodder to promotion! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
