Fuck me we've bought some absolute fucking donkeys over the last few years. Thank God that seems to have stopped. Lots to do yet in the transfer market. Some good signs, some bad still, but the bad stuff looks like its had its day.

It appears as though our defence is more than good enough for this League we just need to sort out midfield and attack to romp it.

Good point. Played two of the best teams away now.  I don't think we've actually played badly either - need a little luck. We need a few more hard players - twats like Will Hughes.

5 points off the top already. Badly need an away victory and two wins in a row to gain some momentum

Wednesday have lost the last two, home to Leeds and away to burton

Sort of game we would have ended up losing last season. Second game in a row where it is disappointing that we did not turn the screw when we were on top. Ayew and Grealish both worked very hard but aren't out and out finishers. Kozak played like you would expect. Elphick and Chester seem to be gelling very nicely.

Derby are no mugs but had enough possesion with no end product...need morea  creative midfield and a striker.

Would have snapped your arm off if you'd offered that when the teamsheets came out.

Gestede was largely dire but provided nuisance value whilst he was on. Kozak didn't even provide that.

We need a CM to avoid the possibility of that pair together at any point again this season, a centre forward to come straight in (and ideally a genuine target man as back up), a right back, a wide midfielder and a no 10. Possibly an experienced keeper as Golini looks like he has a few Guzan moments in him.

So a bit of work to do between now and Sep 1st.

Shape  was wrong and tactically we don't make the most of our offensive players.

We need a striker and two midfielders desperate ,  one with a  bit of creavity at last and the sooner Amavi is match fit the better , cissokho wasnt good.

Tish, Jedi, Amavi , a decent strker and two more midfielders we could make the play offs

Not RDMs starting XI tonight, Jedi and Tshibola and a proper no. 9 and were sorted. Unbeaten in three in the league and we are already above the unclean. I'm quite happy really.

Decent point.

At least we're creating chances but worry for me is lack of ruthless finishing.

Still we have a solid spine now. Need to get moving during September.
