How things have changed, DS now being mocked for mentioning modern coaching methods that he was praised to the rafters for understanding only 12 months ago.

I think the suggestion is that the traps seem not to be working too well.

Why would you be sorting a work permit for a player two weeks before you're even being linked with him?
Quote from: dave.woodhall on January 18, 2020, 10:29:16 PMWhy would you be sorting a work permit for a player two weeks before you're even being linked with him? I think it's called forward planning ......unless Suso or Smith have only just pulled Samattas` name out of a hat this last two weeks
Maybe he wasn't our first choice, or second. Maybe his club were messing us around. Maybe he was. There's a number of things that could have led to us only signing him now.

I accept that the January Transfer window Is notoriously a difficult time to bring in the calibre of players wanted but we have known since August/September That we were light in the strikers department and I would of thought that Suso would have been earning his salary in identifying targets ready for the opening of the window ....all very frustrating for the club and fans

I think what with Kodjia not been fancied all season and Davis’ innocuous injury keeping him out for the last how many months the lack of an alternative has been to the detriment of Wesley and the team as a whole.
