    Dimmu got a reaction from Comrade 86 in Tony Weston - Rangers - signed for u21s   
    Is he like his brother Henry? Dry, but strong?

    That could be the de-cider as to whether we sign him or not.

    Dimmu got a reaction from Premier ram in Idris El Mizouni - joined Leyton Orient on loan   
    We might have made an enquiry about his availability, but there’s definitely hasn’t been a reason for making a concrete offer. We have Knight, Bird, Sibbo, Hourihane, Smith and Thommo for a midfield. Signing one more at this point would’ve been detrimental if we are going to sell someone. 
     
    For a midfield, it’s a waiting game at the moment.

    He scored 26 for Luton in this League. I wonder how many he would've scored if he would've taken up good positions in the box.

    Everyone is waiting for his beard to grow so he'll be eligible to sign for us.

    Dimmu got a reaction from Steve How Hard? in How do we solve a problem like McGoldrick(s replacement)   
    The aim of high press is usually not goal-scoring per se, it's about not conceding. Attack wins you games, defense wins you titles.
    For example, in 2019-2020 Warne's Rotherham scored 57 and conceded 37. Best goalscorer Labado with 14, no other players got to double-figures. Fourth best goalscorer scored 4 goals.
    Collins can score that 14, he has scored 28 in this league and had 11 last season, which was dire by his standards. Knight and Washington can get around 10 because pressing gets you better goal-scoring chances than the slow build-up. Then there's Warne's favorites, set-piece goals.

    As I said, I think the only way to solve this problem is to start to appreciate other sides of football than McGoldrick's class. Also, we can get promoted without him and actually, I think we have a better chance without him. I'm expecting us to be a well-drilled unit next season and darn hard to beat. If we concede less than a goal in a game (like that 37 which averages 0,8), our chances for promotion are excellent.
    Obviously, it would be much more fun to watch McGoldrick's flair but Warne is here to get us promoted and he knows how to get it done. To be honest, League One defenders are technically so horrible that IMO high press is the correct approach.

    Or, if you want another example, five millionaires get in trouble at sea and we mobilize search efforts from around the world and it is the lead item on all news channels. Seven hundred migrants in a boat get into in trouble off the Greek coast and they are ignored for two days before the boat eventually sinks.

    Dimmu got a reaction from i-Ram in 3 signings, 1 common theme   
    2 common themes:
    I've never heard any of them. 
    And to be honest, I've never heard any of the players we've been linked with this summer.  Difficult to get excited about the silly season as no King Colin or similar star players are lined up.
