sam gallagher ? , 3 in 24 last season , no thanks think he'd be useful but not sure he'd be Scheuys type of player He seems to cause us problems every time he plays against us. There’s really not many opposition players I remember but he is one of them. I think he is capable in playing in the same 3421 formation that Ennis was a part of for SS at Plymouth.

But that's not what Schu wants to play now. It's like me saying I want us to play 4231 with flying FB's and 2 caged deep lying midfielders.

If he is a good manager, he’ll recruit for whatever he wants to play but adjust to whatever suits the staff.

I hope not at the start of a new season with a clean slate. We obviously have a good number of mentally weak players who according to Schu were the influence on the shite percentage football we played after dropping into the bottom 3 until Plymouth at home. I hope he has as many of them behind it headed for the exit sign as possible. We bought Schu here because of his brand of football he needs to implement it and get rid of the players who're not upto it, not accommodate them.

He must be doing something right. I’d be interested to know what his assists or key play contributions are.

Would be interesting to know the two Blackburn players who are available. You can't imagine they'll be anyone decent.
It's an awkward situation though because the Venkys can't spend money at the moment and Blackburn's budget has been cut year on year.
A surefire cert for relegation for me.

When there’s umpteen examples of players catching fire once in the right system or environment. I keep on saying it, look at Morris and Adebayo’s records before they went to Luton. There’d have been uproar on here had we signed them. Or closer to home, look at the two players your username is based on 😂 and Sheron, our 3 best goalscorers since the 90s

Just had a little check back and Baker features heavily in the games where we were playing horrible risk adverse football (to me anyway) after dropping into the bottom 3 until Plymouth H but hardly featured at all in our impressive run in playing something like the sort of football we might have expected from a Schumacher team. Coincidence? Or was he one of the ones resisting the HC’s style of football?

We’re not in the same or similar position anymore. We now sign players that should be a bit more than a wing and a prayer.

Connor o riordan is bound be one isn’t he? Young centre half highly rated at Crewe and will be known by our coaching team, weren’t we looking at him before he went Blackburn?🔴⚪️

Coincidence? Or was he one of the ones resisting the HC’s style of football? Yes, he brings very little to the team apart from the odd set-piece or long shot goal. All well and good when we desperately needed goals, but hopefully not what we need this season. I'd rather sell Baker than Laurent TBH. Laurents return to form and the team coincided with our best spell of the season, and I'm hoping its' due to SS being much more motivating than Alex "wet cloth" Neil was. Not that he's a long term solution either.

I'd be perfectly happy shifting both providing we can get replacements that suit the HC's style of football.

We're a lower championship team, and can't really sign world beaters

We're a lower championship team, and can't really sign world beaters I think he’s OK for different midfield set ups but never the most advanced midfielder. He’s ok carrying the ball up field from deep box to box type and he could be an amazing DM with an injection of nasty. I think Schu wants more technical types that are good at all the intricate passing in tight spaces in and around the box that just isn’t Laurent’s game.

He’s got stuff right in the past as far as I’m aware you haven’t but have posted a lot of duff info. Forgive me if I take more notice of him.
