You would have thought the likes of Benson, Hladky, Delcroix and Agyei would see little or no hope of getting starts
But presume other clubs thought the same, plus wages may have been an issue
Let's hope Elizabeth and the BBC are right about Benson to Swansea

BBC saying we’ve signed Darko Churliniov!
I'm convinced they do it deliberately.

Well if if that's true we have left ourselves massively short in cm as things stand. Hope there is some 2 hour paperwork in place for someone. Otherwise we could end up with an ooc like Ericsson.

Suspect Tresor and Delcroix will be off to Europe somewhere where there is a longer window.

Fofana signed for Charlton to miss open goals from three yards there for the rest of the season. Another one of the VK era whose ego was about 2000 times bigger than their ability.

We have Cullen, Lesley, Florentino, Hannibal and Laurent. How is that short?

None of those can be reasonably classed as attacking cm or natural goal scorers or even a Brownhill replacement. Ramsey imo has the potential to be a good attacking cm.

Unless Big Les is the new #10 we haven’t got one. It isn’t Hannibal, good ball player though he is he doesn’t have the vision of Tresors pass to Sonne last Tuesday.

While it's not short in numbers, it seems short in creativity.

Hope to be proven wrong though. UTC.

Pretty sure "Flemming is a 10, not a 9" was the most used phrase on here last season

So just to confirm, some foreign transfer windows do remain open, but as it stands, the Tresorection is on.

For me Flemming is, Edwards isn’t but SP has never played Flemming as a 10 so I doubt he’ll start now.

Having watched our first three league games I get the impression that to compete every player, except our No 9 (Foster) is expected to defend. THats why I feel Hannibal has started all three, and why Edwards has started none. I dont think Flemming gets round the pitch quick enough to perform two roles. Only when we are chasing a game would I expect Femming alongside Foster or Broje to be still on the pitch. For me now its Cullen/Luis as DCM, Ugochukwu as ACM, then Tchaouma/Foster/Anthony front line

We won’t be playing a 10 we will be playing an inside right and inside left. I expect Loum or Marcus to replace Hannibal in the starting line up soon unless he starts scoring or creating. So that will be quite a dynamic front three with some real physicality behind them.

But it also means no place for Cullen.

It isn’t so much whether we have signed the players, it is whether Scott sees it the way we do for how to line them up. If he does, we have enough.

Just dont see Scott dropping Cullen-he offers too much and to date been one of our most consistent. He is also one of the best passers in the team

Which of the two €25m midfielders will he leave out so Josh can play?

Or will he change formation?

(personally, I would change formation and play Les in the 10 for the first 60 mins, I just cannot see it happening)

Agreed. There seems to be a numbers of posters obsessed that we need to play a ‘10’. There are other teams that play 3 in midfield without a ‘10’.

Looks like we are expecting to bring in a free agent with Tresor and Delcroix still expected to go out on loan according to the Bexpress.
