Derbados Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 We needed a RB, Jason Knight is not the solution for the season and Oduroh isn’t ready. May come back to bite us this one, unless we sign a free agent after the window Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'd miss him more as a RB on current form than we do as a midfielder we have plenty of cover in that area. sage, Ghost of Clough, Carnero and 6 others 5 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he offers more as a midfield outlet than a RB, not withstanding that he’s done bloody well in that position so far. Oduroh looks Miles off it so far so if Knight gets injured what’s our back up? Would have been good to sign a more experienced, dedicated right back for the reasons above. Totally admit I’m just being pedantic and ungrateful at this point, the club have performed a minor miracle to bring in who we have considering where we were not 6 months ago.

Rich84 Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 (edited) That's the thing with Knight at RB, he's not let us down defensively and he offers a lot more than any normal RB when we have the ball, which we have and will continue to do so in this league. Effectively it allows us to have another attacking option on the pitch, Sibley or McGoldrick in the number 10 role Edited September 1, 2022 by Rich84 Spelling maxjam, YouRams, angieram and 2 others 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Wisdom has kept himself fit id give him a short term contract as cover then that gives the option to move Knight about or if he has made it his spot we have solid back up.

Definitely not. He was a liability at CB and offered nothing going forward at RB. Can you honestly see him overlapping Mendez-Laing on the wing, or dribbling to the edge of the box and firing a shot in on goal, or tucking in next to Bird as an auxiliary playmaker? angieram, Dordogne-Ram and rammieib 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the feeling that some people think there’s a secret honeypot full of good players available of freebies, that our management are totally unaware of!

Ramslad1992 Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Knight, Bird and Sibley still rams… thats a good enough transfer deadline for me! These three are key to our success this season imo. angieram, Steve How Hard?, inter politics and 7 others 5 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
