Aren’t Brum fans pretty adamant that Stansfield is better on the left? I mean I’d be cool with that if it meant: Manhoef Junho Stansfied Mmaee Swap Mmaee for Tom cannon and we will piss the league. We would just out score everyone

Emretezzy seems to think Cannon is and always was our number one target, we shall see.

It’s not going to happen. I think I’ve said it before I’d probably use that formation with some very different players but I’m not posting with a view to taking over as HC rather thinking what would make his vision the best it could be. I’d be more than happy with Pearson and Burger as the two and those as the three. Just about every other player would be rather large, powerful and aggressive. Anyone can pretend they’re the HC.

Archer and Stansfield stand out on that list to me. Ugbo, Cannon, and Al-Hamadi fall into the decent enough camp. Jebbison and Scarlett I am totally unconvinced by, despite the PR around both. I’d sooner we took the chance on Tezgel, tbh. Going on his last 2 outings I’d pick Junior at CF before Tezgel and that’s against league two opposition at best. Championship CB will eat him up. I’m not saying that Tezgel is the single short-term solution. But regular first-team game time is crucial in a young players development, and what he’d learn (even if getting knocked about) would be aid him in the future. I don’t think Scarlett or Jebbison are going to be good enough / available enough for us here and now, and I’d rather we focussed developing someone in the building than trying to get them to somewhere I don’t think they’ll ever actually reach.

I’d rather we focused on developing in someone else’s building personally. Needs to get some advice of JW if you’re not fast bulk up. Applies to Lowe as well. Nowhere near physically developed enough to play as forwards in the championship with their lack of pace.

Not 433? Burger Bae Thompson Million Mmaee Stansfield Hope not Burger isn’t an advanced midfielder never has been one. And Thompson is as basic as basic gets as a DM ok for cover and versatility not much more than a lady sided utility player to Gooch on the right. Don’t know where that leaves Leris even though he was bright last night.

When is Pearson fit? I wouldn't mind us looking at a new DM to be honest, releasing Burger to play as the 6 he is. Bae could work at 10 if the manager fancied trying it and then we bring in a left winger along with a more physical striker...I still like Ugbo for this option.

That’s what they have to do in Schu’s system and why they have to have a massive engine and intensity. It’s why Cundle was all over the gaff in the final games. That’s why Baker can’t do it.

A 6 is a DM there are no 10’s in the HC’s system.

Though I’d prefer him there with Pearo even though he’s a complete prick on the pitch.

Cundle for me is an absolute must between now and the season opener, such a good footballer. He isn’t but two players like him absolutely are if Junho is staying on the Left. We just use Cundle because we don’t know who the similar players are, they must exist there’s no way he’s unique.

What would your realistic return as in goals and assists for position? Over 10 goals apiece with as many assists ideally. 20 goal involvements a piece over the season. More goals less assists or the other way around no problem happy days but it’s not just about the output it’s about the intensity and quickness of moving the ball. Basically look at what Baker does and I think pretty much the opposite. Look at what Laurent does and you want a player to get in those areas who is a much better footballer. He thinks he’s miles better than he is. He’s another one who should only ever play from a deep lying position. Which as we’ve discussed there is only 1 of in the system and in my mind that can only be Burger when available.

I often find its the assist of the assist that is the key pass and this never gets recorded. It should in my opinion if we want a better idea of players output..

Yes because you actually believe you have a better understanding of the game which is narcissistic. Not really. Football managers constantly show they’re not very good. To me it’s whether you like what they’re doing not almost insisting they do what you want them to. I’ve enjoyed some games under MON and some under AN but overall didn’t like what they were trying to do. Schu isn’t doing something I wouldn’t necessarily do but I know when it has clicked I bloody enjoyed watching it even more than the others and I think for a very brief period under AN we were playing the best football in the division. I didn’t like him because he’s naturally a pragmatist and I don’t think that’s what football is for. Pragmatists are people who fear and struggle to cope with disappointment, give me an idealist every day.

You set ambitious targets but don’t slaughter anyone that doesn’t quite achieve them. Barring the two we’re playing at wide forward I don’t see any player currently in the building getting anywhere close.
