With loan slots like gold dust, you'd think anyone we used one on now was coming in to play. So this is going to be fascinating to see where. Personally I think the GK is a bigger issue than the formation. I'd rather a new GK or defence reinforcements myself. Unless of course our policy has changed and we're bringing in more than the reported 2 players. In which case someone who can play on the wing offers a bit more tactical flexibility

4 games only though. Not a lot to base anything on. It would be a hell of a punt. I wouldn't rule it out though. Because I can't see us ditching everything and switching formation - or using our penultimate loan on someone who's going to be mainly a Plan B bench option.

I make that 11 signings this season. A lot of them not currently intended for the team. It does rather sound as if the management is planning well ahead for the future and the board doesn't plan on any managerial changes for the foreseeable future, maybe never.

You've thrown me right out now..... ☹️ I'm back to thinking "Winger???" 🤔 Yep - we've either used up one of our limited loan spots on a Plan B wide option for a 4-3-3. Or we think he can be an unusually bold attacking RWB Time will tell which. They both seem potentially...interesting choices.

I can see him as cover at right wing back but also an option for one of the wide forwards. Doesn't sound as if he's an out and out winger and we are extremely short of forward options even if Delap signs with two of our forward options(Campbell and Powell) also being the players who have suffered a lot of fitness issues last season and the start of this.

Reading Pete Smith's article, seems like he'll initially potentially slot in at RWB and offer an option further forward in the future.
It's certainly interesting.

So we’re signing a bloke with 4 career games at right wing back for the wing back position.
This club.

With loan slots like gold dust, you'd think anyone we used one on now was coming in to play. So this is going to be fascinating to see where. Maybe he's suddenly realised 3 at the back doesn't work and knows he's not gonna get another striker in so he'll go 3 across the front: Fosu Gayle Brown

Sounds more to like to me that the manager hasn’t got a fucking scooby what he’s doing! Time will tell of course
