Same...bench Stergiakis Wharton Douglas Evans Trybull Chapman Gally

No pal...another year in League 1 it is for Donnys version of Pirlo!

Pffffft - don’t suggest anything other than a Brentford masterclass pal. Watkins and Benrahma for £60m vs Ivan Toney and a couple of others...and a guaranteed to finish above us apparently...?

I’ve read on from the Liverpool journos and Sharpe that Liverpool never planned to let him go until we submitted a detailed plan for Elliott...that’s top class!!

Love the fact we’ve gone to Liverpool with our case for Elliott. Shows our growing reputation with young players and the trust that the likes of Klopp and Liverpool have in our set up.

??? only thing you’ve had to say

I honestly couldnt care less what you think. You’re probably pissed off you’ve nothing to moan about too ??

Utter rubbish. You don’t know what he earns or anything about him. Turn it in.

I’d say rotating Dolan and Elliott at 18 and 17 respectively is a fantastic option...

I do think it’s different this season in that we genuinely need two players for each position. We now have this in spades...big chance!

He’s a winger mate. Keep up will ya

Exactly if we’d signed him on a two year contract they’d be disgusted too!! ??‍♂️???

Don’t listen to that guy pal. You’re better than that.

He’s out of contract in the summer ?

We’re obviously after a top loan of a wide forward / winger and have negotiations ongoing with Bolasie, Elliott and god knows who else....FFFUUUUCCKK this is exciting!

I think he tinkers when he can’t find the formula. Once he find it (eg 4231 the year we got out of League 1), then the team seems to pick itself as it did that year. Theyve worked for roughly 12 months on this transition to high octane, possession based play in a 433...it seems to be just about bearing some fruit...so fingers crossed. As for Gally, who knows? I think he’d be better down the middle but in my mind I keep seeing swirling crosses from Douglas on the left and Gally steaming in at the back post leaping half a body above the defender before sending a crashing header....but then the vision ends...does he hit the net or not? Guess we’ll see!

No, I think (assuming these three get done today) that pound for pound, we’ve had the best window in the Championship this summer. We need to stay in the top 6 for as long as possible and get comfortable in there imo. In Ayala, Douglas and Trybull he’s brought in three players at an average age of 29 with I think 6 promotions out of Championship between them. Kaminski freshly back from International duty is 27....and Dolan...well Dolan is a brilliant added bonus. We HAVE to get in the top 6 this year. Best team on paper: Kaminski Nyambe Lenihan Ayala Douglas Travis Johnson Holtby Dolan Dack Arma We still have a full XI chomping at the bit behind them - Pears / Stergiakis, JRC, Williams, Wharton, Bell, Rothwell, Trybull, Buckley, Chapman, Gally and Brereton. And then Bennett, Evans, Butterworth, Vale, Carter, Davenport etc... No excuses.

I think Trybull is cover for Johnson. It’s a tough role to play as the pivot in a three man midfield. We then have Trybull, Evans and Buckley covering Johnson, Holtby and Rothwell. I can see Evans going in Jan when Travis is fit, or for £1m today before being replaced by Downing. Gutted for Davenport. Obv not trusted to step up. Would ideally need to go out into the bottom of the champ and play 30 games in a midfield three before coming back next season as Johnson’s successor. Hope he’s got it in him.

We would need someone to step up just like Arma did when Dack got injured. Not so long ago there were Rovers fans who who were unsure if AA could even be counted as a ‘good’ signing when reeling them off... These young lads just need time. Hopefully Arma holds off any injuries until Dack is back but I genuinely think Gally in the middle of the three in this team might get going. Especially with some good deliveries into the box.

Now now...don’t cast aspersions on how this board might or might not react tmrw or you may find yourself in hot water ?

Class window.... Dolan - Inspired Ayala - Literally in top 5% champ cb’s Douglas - Great signing And experience Kaminski - Very solid and commanding stergiakis / Pears - means we have a top 6 Champ gk department. Mcbride - great potential Trybull - On others reports seems like fantastic option until Trav gets back and some cover for Johnson. Doesn’t block Buckley. 16 games in the PL last term ??

We still expecting these signings today?

Anyone seen this Trybull play?

Ffs don’t go there pal...??
