Alexandre Mendy (transfer rumour)


Performance levels had definitely dropped, no doubt about it. Early season we were playing quite well, we weren't getting points we deserved, away at PNE and Swansea spring to mind. From about Halloween on we weren't as good, but we were still ticking along points wise until the Beale sacking. We wouldn't have made the playoffs though, we do need a centre forward, imo we need 2.

How many Championship squads would you swap for ours?
You've asked me a very similar question before and I said it's pointless me answering as I don't watch enough of the rest of the league to be able to give a realistic answer.

Yes, we were picking up points when Beale was still here but as mentioned this was down to Jack Clarke carrying us. Clarke gets injured in Beale's last game and the points then virtually totally dry up.

The performances had been pretty poor throughout Beale's reign and even for a lot of Mowbray's reign last season.

For me this is down to the first team being noticeably weaker than the previous season. It hasn't really been strengthened so far so if we go into the season as we are now, I can't see any better than mid table.
 
9 days until the first game of the season, if they manage to bring somebody in they will have missed the whole of pre season working with the new head coach who is still attempting to stamp his playing style on last seasons squad. Aye nowt to worry about ffs.
What happened to we have learnt lessons from last season, what do you think the owner and the recruitment team have addressed since in regards to having a striker who can score goals in the championship and will be ready for the game against Cardiff.
Do we end up playing with Jobe again as the false 9 because the 3 so called strikers we have in the squad have proved in pre season that they are still a million miles away from being ready to start up front.
So say for example that Mendy or Ugbo are our main targets. Especially Mendy. It’s our fault he’s not in even though we know the hold up is him speaking to the new investors at Caen? You don’t just move on from main targets to get any fucker in
I'd agree if we were playing South Shields week in week out, wasn't exactly a goal threat against the rest of the teams we played.
Funnily enough mayenda was involved in about 4 goals this pre season because of his pressing causing the defence to make mistakes

So we have one name on the list, great planning that by the recruitment since Stewart was sold :lol: And again how many goals has Mayenda scored from open play last season and in pre season.

The new investors at Caen is not the only reason man. We low balled them to fuck 😂

We've always got an excuse. Just pay the money and get the fucker in if that's who they want.

It’s absolutely utterly mental at this point I can’t get my head around it. It’s as if people just revert to the same defences on a loop and make the same arguments again and again and again.

One name that we know of mate. Also does it really matter at least he’s contributing the goals he will improve stop f***ing shitting on a 19 year old and let him develop.

We will get a striker or two in by the end of the window I’m quite confident of that. Timing is irrelevant as long as we get them in. Some deals take time this happens with many clubs

😂😂😂😂

Ross Stewart got injured in January 2023, how can you say timing is irrelevant in August 2024, it’s absolutely mental.

There is not a world where not bringing in an able striker for 18 months, that’s if we ignore being left short which people pointed out in August 22, is ok, timing is 100% relevant in this.

Time isn't irrelevant, we needed players in at the start of pre season, I gave the reasons why in a previous post which again you completely ignored. It isn't my fault that we are pinning our hopes on a 19 year old who has no goals from open play since he signed, It's not the lads fault its the recruitments.

One again, there’s no source out there that I’ve seen anyway that claims what their valuation is. And tbf DCK is a mint poster on here and I’d like to think what he’s said is true
😂😂😂😂

So if we sign 2 strikers by the end of the window and one has double figures in multiple seasons to his name are we still gonna be complaining?
