Summer Transfer Window - Part 2


Kamy100

Recommended Posts

On the surface this transfer window looks to be a very good one. Kazim could be a good signing IF played on the wings, But we still have the same problem in Kean.

Pre-season he has already been played people in positons they cant play - Dunn at cm, Rochina at cm and rm.

I just dont understand why he doesnt have the ability to learn from his own decisions In the few cup games last season where he had goodwille/roberts up top with Rochina behind, Rochina looked like a real talent but when played in the league games Kean put him anywhere but up top, Kean shouuld have also known he could play behind the striker with how he had performed there for the reserves.

Even though it was against leyton orient I think, I thought at times the way the strikers in Roberts and Rochina and the wingers in vuckevic and Hoilett played we looked really strong with Roberts doing what he does Rochina getting time and space and running at the defence and with Vuckevic and hoilett regually swapping wings and causing lots of problems. Our midfield was pathetic as usual but it looked like there was a lot of potential in the attacking line up.

The annoying thing is Kean had it set up by Big Sam, the only problem was if Dunn wasnt fit there was nobody else so we wouldnt play the more attacking stuff we could play and we would pack the midfield and play more "hoof" football because thats al our team would allow.

So when "Kean" brought in 2 attacking mids in Rochina and Formica I saw it as a positive sign that we would be playing attacking football more often with the huge burden being taken off Dunn - But alas Kean just didnt do that he just made a complete mess of everything that was put in front of him and has carried on in that vein to our relegation.

He should have seen under Sam that Dunn was either behind the striker or not on the pitch at all definatly NEVER at cm, Goodwillie on the wings???

My first fear of the coming season is the hash he will make of setting this team up again! Pre-season has done nothing to help my confidence!

I expect to see Rochina on the wing, Dunn at cm with Murphy, Kazim as a lone striker which IMO is asking for disaster!

I can't agree. The weakest part of our team - our appalling defence - remains untouched.

It's not just our defence that's poor.....it's the way we were set up....Olsson is off so after we surely replace him it will mean we have a natural left back in the side for the first time since Warnock.....Orr is capable at this level and Henley is one of our most promising youngsters.

Givet especially and Hanley should be up there with the best CB's in the division and with Dann, who knows, maybe he'll be a bit better against weaker opposition....he has looked a lot more assured a couple of times next to Givet in the past....but arguably our most important signing of the summer has been Etuhu so now, barring J Jones' loan spell, we have a natural DM in the team for the first time since Savage who can put a tackle in and break up the play.

This will relieve some pressure on our defenders and so will having Murphy whose ball retention will be very useful.....I doubt we'll keep many clean sheets but let's hope we mostly concede 1 rather than 2.

Why would everton take NZonzi ? They already have a quality midfield with Pienaar and Naysmith as well as Fellaini. NZonzo just wouldnt fit in and is far too good to be sitting ont he bench when he could be settling the middle of our own midfield.

What a scandalous waste but what do we expect from KEANSCUM the tactically inept foolish idiotic scottish gimp ?

Few whispers this morning that Chamakh from Arsenal is a loan possibility should we likely fail to bring Rhodes in. I would be ok with that but would prefer Guidetti on loan.

I noticed Chris Wood at West Brom is up for sale. Had a couple of loan spells last season with Brum and Bristol City, did well at Birmingham, 9 goals in 23 games, less so at Bristol City though. He's a New Zealand international, i wouldn't mind us having a look at him.

Chamakh is a great player and would tear the Championship apart with ease. His ego is massive though and i doubt entirely he'd want to drop down a league not when he could easily get into most PL teams first team or go abroad and ply his trade.
