I wonder whether the final 11 will be strong enough physically for a championship season? I hope so as they are mostly all ball players. We need to get behind them as so young as there will be dips I’m sure. It will be stronger without Laurent!

The only issue we may have is defending set pieces. One things for sure though if these moves come off we’re going to be great to watch

Seen plenty of people listing their ideal line-ups and my recurring thought is where is the physicality you undoubtedly need to compete in this league.

Do we know when we can expect to see Lawal playing, after international break maybe, heard zero on this, other than something picked up in the medical?.

It’s something both me and my cousin pointed out against West Brom was our lack of Height and physicality…I think Phillips…Lawal and Gallagher will add to it imo🔴⚪️

One things for sure though if these moves come off we’re going to be great to watch We've lost McNally from last season who was good at defending set pieces Perhaps Phillips will be good at that? Viktor is a good talker so that helps in that regard, as is Gibson does look like a weakness though

It’s why Gallagher and Lawal are key wet Tuesday away we are going to Need to earn the right to play we will have to wait for that but yes either/both must make a big difference in that regard Other than Sheffield Wednesday & maybe Millwall not really any 'physical' teams in the division though

Looks to me like a very brave "shit or bust" strategy. Certainly lacking physicality with a line up which consistently has at least 4 loan players as regular starters, assuming the last loan spot goes to a striker. Exciting and worrying at the same time.

I like Cundle but do we need him right now? Permanent would make sense but not really a loan

Toney to Saudi for 40m. Not a good move for him that other than financially.

Does seem like we are assembling a team of dwarfs which is concerning given how West Brom dominated us aerially
I guess the idea that we will 'outplay' the opposition on the ground is attractive but you need a mixture and I think the balance isn't sufficient as it stands
If we don't bring in a striker today someone wants shooting as if we are relying on what we have we will have a long hard season (we won't be playing Middlesbrough's youth team every week)

Mail say Ipswich want Latte Lath. Ipswich aren't done yet Ipswich are back in the Premier League for the first time in 22 years and they are desperate to stay for more than just one season. They have been busy this summer and are now eyeing a move for Middlesbrough's Emmanuel Latte Lath. The 25-year-old scored 18 goals last season and has been pinpointed by Ipswich as a potential alternative to Chelsea's Armando Broja. Broja move is off then. We should pray they find someone else and let us have their Iraqi lad

At least we have a 2 week break after tomorrow followed by the Fleetwood game to get new signings to gel, hopefully.

Loans can be a great tool and hopefully it works out, but next summer we could potentially with sales lose,
Koumas Junho Million Moran Cundle? Striker Loan?
We could lose our complete forward line up and be left with another big rebuild. I suppose the argument is that perms can still be lost if they have a good season, or you are left with terrible perms on long contracts. So does it make any difference?
