I certainly stand by what I said now, the top 8 has really come on strong this year and it's probably the first time in a while that there's a realistic chance of any of the top 6 winning the league yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plymouthram Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 You have only got to look at the remaining fixtures of the top 9 teams to realise some points are going dropped by teams yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cosmic Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Sports journalist mate of mine (West Brom fan) went to the QPR game. He had this to say: "Apart from about 20 mins in the second half last night you were pretty abject. Johnny Russell looks like your only player who wants the ball and can do something with it. Ince was anonymous and Martin is a bit of a donkey. Keogh and Shackell are decent centre backs but the whole team was all over the shop yesterday. I'd be concerned of not making the play-offs at this rate, yet alone the top two." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must admit, the bit about Johnny Russell looking like he can actually do something with the ball is a head scratcher, though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alph Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 Russell does that. Looks dangerous and hungry to those that haven't seen him running into brick walls for 3 or 4 years. Wears thin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HKRam Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Quote Looking at this squad I hate the way they spent the money. Looks like they just wanted to 'strengthen' every position, only they never actually strengthened because the players they bought are barely better than the players already there. They just bloated the squad enormously without actually improving it. They should have just concentrated the money on a few important signings for key 1st team positions. Even a random onlooker knows what's wrong with our club. It's taken from sofifa.com. And no, I don't think this FIFA16 TV game player is a DCFC fan.

Let's look at the signings we made in the summer; Bent to replace Bent Ince to replace Ince Carson to improve on Grant and Roos Pearce to improve the leaky defence/Whitbread/Buxton injury Baird to replace Eustace Weiman to replace Ward Shackell to improve on the leaky defence/Albentosa Johnson for the injured Bryson Butterfield for the injured Hughes Olsson for injured Forsyth Camara for Dawkins Blackman for Lingard? All of them had reason behind, would argue only 1 of the last 2 were necessary in theory. Maybe a loan deal or 2 to cover the injuries but still signings were needed t add to the outgoings in the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And now that Bryson is fit and Hughes is also on the way back, our midfield looks bloated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence why I said maybe a loan or 2 to cover the injuries but if there were no loans available that were of sufficient quality it would have been pointless and better off sticking with injury prone Thorne, old man Bird and rookie Hanson and Hendrick. I am sure if that was the case peoplease would be calling MM for not investing. Dammed if he does. Dammed if he doesn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kernow Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Quote Major changes required at HT.
