Anag Ram Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 14 minutes ago, Bob The Badger said: If we can hold on until January I think Trump would be ideal. I know his style would be very direct, but he'd refuse to allow the EFL to see our tax returns, , demand every game we were losing continue until that's no longer the case and there'd be no dressing room back chat I can assure you. And if all that didn't work he'd probably invade Nottingham. ... and refuse to accept defeat. We could get Jack Marriott back firing again with unlimited golf. Rudi Giuliani could do all the press interviews and convince everyone we've won every game. Yes, it all makes sense ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost of Clough Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 18 minutes ago, Edtheram said: Who does Sibley and Bird come in for? Im sorry but Max Bird is not a defensive midfielder as he can not tackle and he is too slow when making recovery runs. Does he get in the side over Bielik? No. Shinnie? No. Tackles per 90 Shinnie - 2.5 Bird - 2.0 Sibley - 1.4 Bielik - 1.0 Knight - 0.9 Holmes - 0.4 Interceptions per 90 Bielik - 3 Shinnie - 2.2 Bird - 1.2 Holmes - 1.2 Knight - 1.0 Sibley - 0 Blocks per 90 Shinnie - 1.5 Holmes - 1.2 Bird - 0.8 Knight - 0.8 Sibley - 0.7 Bielik - 0 Fully fit you'd be looking at rotating the midfield 3 between Bielik, Bird, Knight and Sibley. Shinnie, despite excelling defensively, limits us in possession but is a good squad player. Holmes looks like a rabbit in headlights at the moment. Based on current form, he should be our 6th choice 'CM', in form he's in contention to start. I also see Sibley as a better option on the wing than Holmes.

DeMontfortRam Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Just a little update on the managerial merry-go-round... Oscar Garcia has just been sacked from Celta Vigo. Could be a very realistic possibility of him ending up here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Shinnie? No. Bielik ? Possibly not but I'd pretty much be looking to get both in there in some fashion. Shinnie ? Yeah absolutely, which leads to the actual general point I was trying to make. Shinnie is an ok championship player and that's all he'll ever be. That's not doing him a disservice, it's more a function that he's 29. The kind of player that are good to have in the squad but not what you build around. A lot of our more senior pros fall into that same bracket of being ok championship players. The real talent is with the academy lads with those 4 in particular demonstrating that they can already compete at this level. The trick is though "competing at this level" isn't the ceiling of their ability, they'll all likely be playing in the premiership in 2-3 years with or without us and the more you play them the closer to realising that potential they are likely to get. Build around the talent, work out how to get them playing consistently and then sprinkle in some steady older players to help them along as needed.

I think you are right but more than that I hope you are right. Going with someone with 0 experience feels a bit too much like putting the house on red right now. That to one side and I understand why we've done it previously but I'm getting to sick to the teeth with stunt appointments and the sickly simpering that follows them.

CornwallRam Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 I think I've made sense of it now. The takeover has clearly fallen through. Mel can't afford to sack Cocu so he's got his PR people to float a scenario that is worse than sticking with Cocu, so when Cocu stays it'll feel more positive.
