Barnsleyowl1996 Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 True , I think we all got carried away, missing football for so long the optimism got to us. So far Theres few that can class as impressive . Few in the ok category but more in the need to do more category Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kopparberg Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 The loans are here for match practice. We DO have a blend of experience with it though - and they aren’t doing enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreshOwl Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 I did say before, everyone was raving about these signings and I was perplexed. Half of them aren’t even proven, or just aren’t very good Gregory - lower league 1 in 3 journeyman corbaneau - unproven shodipo - one proper season, unproven adeniran - unproven Byers - averaged 10 games a season for Swansea between 2016-2021 kamberi - non scoring journeyman striker sow - bit part player in the Dutch league And these were added to a group of players who got us relegated last year Not one signing stood out where you thought ‘wow, what a coup’ All much of nothingness 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 I was thinking after that if this lot played for say Fleetwood or something then they'd probably boss this division. But they play for us, so crumble at the slightest hint of adversity. Honestly feel that challenging is as much about mental strength as it is about ability. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nile Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 I’m still waiting for certain signing to turn up. wing has been a big disappointment for me so far. im still working on the principle it’s early days so far but that won’t last much longer, need to see committed consistent performances from so many 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southie_Owl Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 Given the opportunity I wonder how many of our squad Ryan Lowe would have loved to been able to sign in the summer for Plymouth. Peacock-Farrell? Iorfa? Hunt? Bannan? Wing? Adeniran? Berahino? Shodipo? Johnson? Gregory? Kamberi? Sow? Corbeanu? Personally I think a lot of those would be considered as good signings for a club like Plymouth. Yet we are struggling to beat Morecambe and Shrewsbury and Plymouth are doing a lot better. Strange 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WBridgfordowl Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 If you’re a good player at this level, you command a fee. Not really heard of many of our signings. My view at the start of the season was that a mid table finish would be a good achievement I haven’t changed my view 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
