Anyone going to hazard a guess who might be arriving or leaving before Friday?. Baker, Johnson, Ennis, Tezgel, Dixon and Sol all going to be sold, last 3 on loan.

I think we are crying out for a 4231 system! Johansson New RB Phillips Gibson Stevens Burger Larval Bae Koumas Million New Cf Agreed? He tried it today but I agree it’s the way forward.

I'm an ideal world, we still need: A RB A DM Someone better than Laurent and Burger Two strikers And pray Gallagher, Lawal and Stevens are back soon. What a mess considering.

Tbh, I only knew Acheampong existed from one of them pronunciation videos, googled him and watched some vids of YouTube and he looks alright tbh, another with a point to prove like Koumas

Think it's obvious why we seem to be chasing a number of centre midfielders.
Good chance Laurent, DJ and Baker will be off before the window closes, Bakers second half cameo was appaling.
That leaves Thompson, Lawal, Burger and Sidibe.
Sol is 17, Lawal hasn't played a minute of Championship football and Thompson isn't good enough to be starting every week.
Burger, christ knows what's going on with him. Doesn't suit the system? Unfit?
Honestly wouldn't be that shocked if he was to leave this season.

I see Lyndon Dykes was left out of the QPR squad all together today🤔Haven’t we been linked with him in the past?

Don't think he's the type Schumacher wants. He mentioned pace again post-match. Dykes is just a bit of a lump, isn't he? Think I've seen Blackburn mentioned with him. www.stokesentinel.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/stoke-west-brom-live-stream-9507063"What I like from him (Koumas) in that position is that he's quick and willing to run behind and play on the shoulder. That creates space for the lads in front of them. That's how I like to play. It gives us an opportunity on transition to get in on one pass. "A 9 who's fit, who's fast is ideal and he can do that"

Well Pejis said we were playing 3-5-2 on radio Stoke! Well I didn’t see that but thought all his other comments on the match set up etc were spot on. That was a maelstrom of a selection and plan of how to play. It was an inexperienced manager over thinking the simple game of football.

So I guess anyone coming in now will be on loan due to ffp.

Why the hell is Antonio getting mentioned? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 People didn’t like Diouf god knows what people would make of Antonio 😂 They don’t really compare Diouf was quite quick when we got him but Antonio is a powerhouse both not technically great but Antonio could really make room for others to play in. Definitely a problem at the moment that we have zero physical presence in the final third, it’s a little embarrassing.

Well I think Walters referenced earlier in the window that we wouldn't be able to go out and spend £8 million on a striker, so unless we get them to knock about £2 million off the asking price, we will be in trouble 🤔

Sorry, knock £5 million off the price.👍

Yeh, we can't spend a penny by the sounds I don’t think anyone really knows Hopefully we can, but the loan deals suggest that's the pond we're fishing in. We desperately need a few strong Championship players to go with what we have.

I think we are crying out for a 4231 system! Johansson New RB Phillips Gibson Stevens Burger Larval Bae Koumas Million New Cf Agreed? We can't be having that - we have to have our non-negotiables of Laurent, Wilmot, Thompson and Gooch starting EVERY game without exception. And, of course, the world beating Niall Ennis coming on for his 20 minute cameo every week! He once scored a goal for us you know! Seriously that does look like a very solid team with plenty of threat about it if we get the new striker right. Think the double pivot will offer us both a foundation to protect the back 4 and keeper, who will no doubt gain confidence from having that protection as well as giving us a bit of quality to bring the ball through midfield and feed our creative outlets who can hopefully gel and start providing goals. Also think that midfield pairing can chip in with a few goals, Burger got 4 and Bosun 6 in a poor league 1 side. Add to that the likes of Gooch, Thompson, Pearson and a few of our younger lads coming in from the bench and it looks like a decent championship side actually. It’s a much simpler common sense formation with a reasonable defensive structure that allows attacking players the freedom to attack not forwards expected to play RB and LB whilst the FB’s tuck in and defend the edge of the box . I think Schu has quite a lot more questions to answer than his players, who I think are getting undeserved shit for tactical uncertainties that don’t have clear answers ie who is supposed to be defending the flanks. Tbh if the answer is the wide forwards I think it’s a wank answer.

I went into yesterday's game thinking we needed a striker, right back and possibly another midfielder
Cone away thinking we need 1 left back, 1 right back andva midfielder
I think Koumas can do the business up front
It's not good though to bein this position, both Albion and Watford seem to have balanced sides, we look a mess

We had none of that yesterday and was a mess. Inexperienced coach who overthinking patterns of play. Most of his tenure at Stoke has been like this to be fair so can’t moan if we’re struggling at end of September if hes given boot.
