Given the situation with Bsmbo ( and no timescale has been given for this) I see it as we've replaced him this window but lost Sibbick and to me defence was where we had to strengthen this season.
It was difficult, almost impossible, to achieve but we have managed to end the transfer window with no discernible improvement to our defence.
Very disappointed not to add to our defence.I was also hoping for another striking option. Plus points adding 2 experienced older players (time will tell) and a younger squad player who can cover both fullback spots and of course not selling any of our crown jewels when so many people said the board would. In a nut shell could have been better could have been a lot worse.
Car crash. Shambles. Something badly wrong behind the scenes, no idea what it is. Squad far too large and yet limited cover in certain positions. Players out on loan who are better than players on the bench. I'm on the bus to Charlton, once again I asked around for opinions on our owners. One person commented that while they don't understand football, they are brilliant business people. The others? Scathing, as usual.
people really need to stop calling them business people, they are investors. Business people run businesses, this includes people and assets, it appears that they recognise the importance of assets but not the impact people make.
In my opinion I honestly think that this board will sell our Crown Jewels in the summer to cover the cost of relegation & will have to rebuild a team again from scratch. It all goes back to this summers money wasted on players for the future that clearly hasn’t worked when we needed experienced players bringing in when experienced players had left or should I say that knew the game plan & style of play.
