waddleisgod Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 I’m happy with kachunga, fiest score lots, runs with the ball. a handful, creates space and very hardworking Much better than Da Cruz get Windass in and an out and out goal scorer and I’ll feel much happier Decent business IMHO 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In terms of need, where would you place us compared to the promoted sides? I would think we are one of those sides that are in most need of recruitment, and for once we are in a position where we don’t need to move players out first. We just need to pull our finger out We are desperate to add to the squad but Where's the money coming from and who wants to come to a team starting at - 12? I listened to Garry Monk on Saturday and thought he was lowering expectations Edited September 2, 2020 by akbuk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither him or Windass are the out and out strikers we need. I agree, continue to be baffled by the players we acquire, suited to a formation (3 up front) which we dont play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tea Baggins Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Individuals do not make for a successful team. If we play as dynamic and aggressive as we did on Saturday against better opposition in Leicester, I have confidence this season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gurujuan Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 So Monk was fibbing when he denied an interest in Kachunga. Let’s hope he was lying when he said he didn’t have an interest Rio Griffiths as well then 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead staying up looks an incredibly tough feat and our squad is the weakest it’s been in years. We’ve lost Our better players and have replaced them with limited numbers, limited ability and experience. Our squad looks painfully weak, even without a points deduction. But we can’t attract decent players as whose going to want to join a club on minus points and who can only offer limited wages due to the FFP stranglehold the owner has put us in. We’re probably the least attractive proposition in the league right now. im aghast at the situation we find ourselves in. It’s the first time in 20 years I hadn’t renewed my ST and the damage this owner has caused has completely ripped apart that connection I had with the club.

frastheowl Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Not particularly excited by the Kachunga signing, but it's another signing, with Championship and Premiership experience, that will have barely bitten into the budget. Like I said a couple of weeks ago, we've now signed Dunkley, Fisayo, Brown, Kachunga and presumably Windass shortly, for an outlay of around £600k, and they'll be on wages significantly less than those who have recently departed. Of course, carry on with those type of signings, and you risk going backwards, as the quality you're replacing doesn't match up. But, in a way, Wednesday are in the fortunate position, with the exception of Fletcher and Fox, none of those who have departed particularly contributed a great deal over the past 18 months. But, given we've padded out the squad with solid, yet unspectacular signings...it's imperative we finish off our transfer dealings with some real quality...which undoubtedly costs more money. Maybe those type of signings are been made unavailable at present, as Premier League clubs mould their squads and await signings themselves. I've no issue with Kachunga and Windass as options in our forward line...but they need supplementing with some real quality...whether it be a permanent signing that costs a few million quid, or a genuinely top class loan signing (equally, which'll cost a fair whack). The time for scrimping and scrounging has now passed, time to bring in that quality to lift us to the next level. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think Rhodes did at Hudds, but I get your point. And I’m sure we will be signing more forward players to go with Kachunga and Windass and Rhodes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
