Which of VK’s Signings……..
Which of VK’s Signings, if any, would
a) be good enough for the PL and/or
b) have kept us up if they’d been in the squad last season?

Are you including loans? Which system are they playing? Cos these players aren’t suited to Dycheball.
But ignoring that Tella is the obvious one.

They're all good enough for the PL.
That's why we're top of the championship and improving every week.

Re: Which of VK’s Signings……..
Sorry that was my answer for question b)
For a) All of them. It is a system not individuals. They all have shown they can play it. Most are young enough to still keep getting better.

At the minute none.
But they should all improve as a team over the season and hopefully hold their own there next year.

Loans aside , hard to say as all have feel of “ good subs “ I take all 4 loans if we could though .
Re: Which of VK’s Signings……..
The loans have made the biggest difference, so far. Mainly Tella and THB. The originals are also showing their class.

Re: Which of VK’s Signings……..
Two relatively easy questions:
All the ones who played in the PL, the top league in Belgium and are currently PL squad members would I think be good enough for the PL albeit a number have been loaned out by their sides because their clubs consider them not to be good enough for the squad they are in....
If we had bought Cullen last summer we would have stayed up. Presuming SD would have played him. Probably the desire not to play Cork was the only blot on SDs copy book.
I tend to think if AFCON hadn't happened we would have stayed up.

Re: Which of VK’s Signings……..
Interesting one, Napoli’s President recently got some angry eyes on him as he said he won’t sign players who are playing (and won’t agree to not playing) in AFCON again. Reason being Napoli were flying last season and they lost 3/4 players which blew up their momentum.ClaretPete001 wrote: ↑Mon Oct 17, 2022 9:12 amI tend to think if AFCON hadn't happened we would have stayed up.
Do agree that losing Cornet + his form post AFCON was a big factor in our relegation. Our results with him starting games in the first half of the season were very good.

Re: Which of VK’s Signings……..
I agree that as yet there are a few that are not quite ready and need a bit of nurturing / further experience, but players such as THB (I've said a few times already how highly I rate him) and Zaroury to name two look like they have an incredibly bright future at this stage.
I don't think there is one signing that on their own could have made a difference though last year although Tella would be the obvious one to add something different that could have had any sort of effect.
