Pretty crazy what’s gone on really, we had a team/manager that finished 7th. It could have been such a simple window of offering decent contracts, signing a decent striker and a winger and majority of fans would have been happy. Why do we never build? although it’s a little unknown yet I’d say we’ve had the worst window in the league no including sheff Wednesday, all things considered with who we’ve lost etc the lack of “let’s add” to what we had, the promoted teams have really strengthened, we’re weaker than all the relegated team regardless who they’ve lost, can certainly see why eustace left, derby want to move forward.

The Liaison officer has embarrassed herself with that stupid message on social media. Like a bitter girlfriend who got dumped. Im sure she was paid well to be really nice to them.

Personally think it’s getting stupid, if they know something us fans don’t know then say it, instead of the cryptic bullshit causing more unrest between the fan base. 

Glad the travis saga is done with, really liked him on and off the pitch. Certainly feels like a new era has begun on the pitch. I’ve been very critical but feel the squad is starting to take shape with some exciting unknown additions. Hopefully add a striker and they can do the fans proud. 

Thought there was plenty of fight, just zero quality. Subs were awful. Some dreadful signings. Offered nothing going forward bar the long throw at the end. 3 games, 3 loses. 

Solid enough first half, real worry is scoring a goal. 

Big worry for me is the “togetherness” weve had top managers over the years, we’ve had a squad over the last few years who would die for each other, that is what made us playoff contenders. Now we have a squad full of strangers, no connections, nobody who the fans can call their own, get behind etc. There aren’t any players left in that squad that I think “he will win this for us” he’ll bang the lads heads together. There isn’t even a real captain left tbh. 
 

rough year ahead. 

Same people who want Travis gone will be moaning when forshaw is starting. Absolutely beyond stupid not to have him tied down to the point he wants to go derby.

So even if you scouted him, Ismael wants him, he had a medical here, does not count for owt? 

These players we’ve brought in, ismael doesn’t sign them for any other championship club if he’s in charge bar maybe the CB.  He’s been given a list of 2-3 players worth peanuts and he’s prob picking best of a crap bunch. You keep saying he wants these players 😂 he has no choice with the funds he has been given. 

I Was a bit angry yesterday with what I saw in the moment, after processing overnight and calming down I’ve still got the same outcome, we’re shit, and most of the new players are shit.

To be honest, I'd seen enough today from both of them to know you can't have both of them in centre midfield all season if they're not both fully commited. If they're not 100% in it then they need fucking off ASAP and get someone in with more of a point to prove. 

Thought Travis and tronstad were brilliant together last season and it was when 1 was injured shit hit the fan.

Agreed we will likely miss his presence off the field but his limitations on the field under how Val wants to play are there for all to see

having said that tronstad was equally as poor 

a ball carrying midfielder is probably also required likely baradji (how fit not sure)

 

The full team have limitations going off today’s performance, but I’d much rather have our captain there who we know will be up for the fight instead of another cheap foreigner. Crazy wanting him replaced with a cheap untried geezer from abroad. And looking at what we had out today, I don’t trust these lot to bring anyone decent in. 

Travis goes we’re in the shit, not many in this squad understand or has what it takes for the championship. Wasn’t the best today but who blames him if he’s being shipped out. 

Only positive I’ll take from that is I like Lewis miller. If these are ismaels signings who he wanted as chaddy says then he needs sacking because they fucking shite. Sorry admin. 

Blame the ref all we want, I’ve seen a team that’s offered nothing going forward and has looked very poor.

Miller looks a decent player. Confident and strong on the ball. 

Arial threat and a long throw. He’s looking promising 

I’m not overly convinced by kargbo but I really want to like him, seems all fart no poo to me. And made of glass. 

Miller long throw, instantly does more than the full team.

From what I've seen from Kargbo I'm surprised he's behind De Neve in the pecking order, unless it's a fitness issue. 

Seems to of have a fitness issue since he’s arrived, I like him, but if he can’t start games we need another LW but the others aren’t the answer. 

RB has done okay - still a downgrade.

New CB I like

henrikson looks like he’s got cement boots and has made some silly fouls, looks well off pace. 
 

not impressed with de neve as an attacking Left midfielder. 
 

ohashi -unlucky 

hedges to come on at half time.

overall very disappointed, tho we did settle towards end of the half. Still nothing going forward and teams will be very comfortable against us defending. 
 

kargbo and gueye on.

No no, we are stronger than last year. These are Ismail's signings.  Part of his plan.

 

😂😂😂 excellent 

Toth 😂😂😂

We look crap putting it simply 😂 zero attacking threat.

Wondering if my 2-2 prediction is in any ways realistic… who scores two goals in this lineup? 

Unless henrikson is Ronaldinho in disguise, I struggle to see any creativity.

On the face of it, not too bothered about any of these players leaving for the right price.

I hope they're "unexpected" transfers though as that's half our squad. They'd need replacing.

Why wouldn’t you be bothered? The team has been dismantled and replaced with unknowns. Right price? What does the price matter, we don’t see any of it 😂
