Summer transfer madness thread

I bet that John Terry is fitter than most posters on this board and for a footballer, he is ancient!!

I bet he can't post a Mick McCarthy gif as quickly as I can though.

I can't be arsed to learn how to do it so you will have to do the same with new shirt later!

There's plenty of goals in this side. They just need to play 10/15 yards higher up the park, such as Brighton where Hourihane and Lamsbury could have had 5 or 6.

Agree, but that requires the back four holding a pretty high line which is something we won't be able to do with Terry in the side.

Not necessarily. If our full backs press their opposite number and one remains disciplined, if we press from the front and have pace outwide ourselves, then we'd dominate territory as much as possession.

Against Brighton, the side with more to play for than not, we showed that you don't need somebody screening necessarily at home. Hourihane and Angela left space in behind but we didn't suffer.

I also think you're making too much of Terry's absence of pace. He's never had it and Baker is no quicker.

[Matt Collins]

The advantage we had against Brighton home and away is that they played a pretty flat 442

Whereas wolves' 433 really had us caught out badly home and away. So I'm not so sanguine about why you say - and the better we get the more teams would make specific plans for us

[Matt Collins]

So also not a coincidence grealish affected both games. He could play between the lines pretty freely

I think there should be plenty of goals in this squad if Bruce gets them playing right. Green needs to play a significant part this year.

It's horses for courses. Brentford away we needed Jedinak in that hole. Teams that come to sit are crying out to be boxed in and dominated territorially. With Terry we can play more percentage football around the box.

There's a reason we're 6/1 on and it's not because this squad is nowhere near good enough.

McCormack has shifted a lot of timber. I wonder if he's going to knuckle down? He would seem the ideal partner for Hogan while Kodjia gets match fit.

[ozzjim]

A fit firing McCormack would be a huge asset. Let's not forget he has a very very good record at this level.

Wyness has said the olive branch has been handed to him and his attitude has been very good so far this summer.

He loves olives. Drizzles the oil onto his kebabs.

It does sound promising, and if Bruce can get going he will be a useful asset.

The oil he needs is WD40.
