We can't stick a wad of tenners in at centre back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does have quality and as you say, creativity that very few have at this level. Where is he anyway? have him and the other foreigners been around in these friendly games. I noticed fage came on yesterday but not heard anything about the rest of them. I don’t know where he is. It’s a bit of a puzzle. A bit of communication from the club would be helpful.

Don't like to be too critical about pre-season but our games so far appear to have been training games of different durations rather than any 90 minute game under true match conditions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we are still at least 6 players short of a competitive squad (7 if Wheater goes) who if we sign them won’t have much gelling time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UsedtobeWozzer Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 6 minutes ago, Dave_Og said: Do we know what sort of side they put out? Comfortable in possession, Latics played against a first-half Forest side that featured the likes of Michael Dawson, Sammy Ameobi, Lewis Grabban, Matty Cash, Brice Samba along with recent additions Lyle Taylor and Tyler Blackett.

If those three were to leave and no more came in we would start with the following team against Carlisle: Lawlor, Fage, Jombati, Piergianni, Borthwick-Jackson, Keillor-Dunn, Grant, McEleny, Rowe, Dearnley plus anyone from Parker, Milovanovic, Hope.. if they sign... scary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A member of the playing staff when he signed told me he wouldn't get in the Royton Town side. By the time I finally got to a game last season (Exeter at home), he had been put on the scrapheap...
