Curtains Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 How long will it take Pearson and Powell to find out what us fans already know. Im sure Wassall will have his say along with Phillips etc. Mel Morris and Sam Rush will also have an input again I would imagine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomsdubs Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 You do realise he's probably watched a number of our games last season right? Pretty sure he was in the crowd for some games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could start the season tomorrow and I would feel more than comfortable with the squad. Those £25m signings have had a full season together already, the understanding of how each player works will be there. No need to rock the boat again throwing in a load of fresh faces. We can't compete with Newcastle, that's a given, that 2nd place is up for grabs and well within our reach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd imagine it won't take long for him to realise what the fans have known for ages. It's been clear to us fans that Ince and Martin don't get along because they never celebrate together, so don't be surprised if one of them is sold by Tuesday. Also I think Keogh will be stripped of the captaincy because we fans all know Keogh performs better without that pressure. Craig Bryson will be given the armband. Won't take long for Pearson to come to the conclusion that Blackman should be given a chance in 'the position he's always played in' - as a striker. Same applies for Weimann.

All about opinion but I think the squad is unbalanced in many ways. Too many midfielders and not enough decent Centre Forwards with an aging Darren Bent as the only back up and no back up at Centre Back apart from Buxton and an untested Rawson. Too many similar players like Russell,Blackman and Wiemann etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many similar players like Russell,Blackman and Wiemann etc Unbalanced for what formation as we're yet to see what Pearson has planned, that's actually the beauty of this squad, he's not walking into a situation where a set formation is in place as he has zero options. Bent is still a goal scorer, 2 years younger than Ibrahimovic, age is no issue there. Rawson has played at this level, we also have Pearce and Buxton as you say, both of which are experienced at this level. Pearce wasn't in Clement's plans, that's not to say Pearson won't like him either. We will see 1 or 2 come in without a doubt, there's no rush, could even wait till deadline day, no problem with that.

Not trying to be deliberately controversial but just pointing things out that some may have not thought of regarding constant change at DCFC and thinking about merits of the current squad and new manager change etc Tennis and Formula 1 at the moment m8.
