I always though Tshibola had all the physical attributes to be an excellent holding player. He can pass too.

Something must be hugely amiss with his attitude.

Agree Ads thought Tshbola looked decent in the couple of games I saw him play for us.
He certainly had that physicality and as you say he could pass the ball.
Apart from the shambles of our defence we are crying out for a Petrov type midfielder.

The mystery of Berson !! Didn't he play a game over the Christmas period well and then was never seen again ?

It took us ages to sign him, when he got here O'Leary said not to expect too much as he wasn't all that good (or words to that effect), he played and looked a decent player, then vanished.

It was all very odd, I wonder how many clubs have a bad record, or bad luck with foreign singings like we do, Stas, Berson, Nilis, Makoun, Balaban, Bienlich, Baros, Brietkrutz, Six, Gil, Ferraresi, Lamptey, Salifou, Sanchez, there's probably more I've forgotten.

Some of them were cheap punts of the sort that work or don't, some got injured, but there's five or six there  about who you wonder, "Why didn't he get more of a chance?"

Agree with that.  We desperately need a leader type in the position who can get a grip on the team and the game in general as that kind of leadership isn't coming from anywhere else.  Having witnessed the last few weeks, I would say bringing in someone like that has probably overtaken LB as the number one priority (although the latter position needs to be addressed asap).

I seem to remember a push for the fans to vote Berson our player of the year once - the year he was on loan somewhere in France while we had an abysmal season.  It may have been the O'Leary season with the Doncaster game in it.

Tshibola has been doing well for Killie in their ascent.

Being linked to free agent Jordon Mutch now he and Palace have parted.
Sorry if it's already been mentioned

Our Jordan quota for the decade was reached some time ago.

Wasn't he pictured in the passenger seat of Gabby's car going to or from training?  Maybe he go tin with the Richards/Gabby posse (i.e. the wrong crowd) and started behaving like a twat.

He would probably do a decent job for us at this level but he doesn't contribute much when it comes to goals. He seems too similar to our other holding midfielder types, of which we have a few. Dare I say he would be 'mutch of a mutchness' with what we already have.

Not sure we need to bring in a replacement winger to be honest - Albert, Kodjia, El-Ghazi and Green are plenty there. The wages are needed elsewhere. Unless the rumours of Kodjia going as well are true.

I'd move Kodjia on if possible, he doesn't seem to be a Smith type player. The problem is, we paid a king's ransom for him and he's on a huge wedge. Yet another poor buy measured in financial terms, as much as I enjoyed watching him n his first season here.
