@ElderGrizzly Not spending money on a decent goalkeeper and defenders while splashing the cash on midfielders and attackers for fun, coming back to bite us? Who would have thought it.
@TheCruncher76 We would, it’s the minimum isn’t it? Delap got 12 in a poor side. He’s going to get supply. But the point is, we’re messing around on deadline day for a position we know we’ve needed for a very long time.
For all of the good work done this summer and it has been phenomenal. We’re leaving ourselves short at centre back and we’re pushing through an over priced deal for a striker who clearly never was a number one target on deadline day because we left it late. #itfc
@VilanovaBlue Delap checked out in December 2024 mate when Chelsea turned his head, we’ve known since then. We’ve needed an ‘experienced’ striker for a good four seasons. Regardless of position, doesn’t take that long. Does it?
@AMPITFC Are you ok? You think we were that bad at the back last time because of midfield cover? Blimey. 3 of our current back 4 were part of a defence that conceded 82 goals, second worst in the division. Nothing fickle about that, buh.
Pretty underwhelming to end up with Flemming. Nowhere near the top of the list, if not would have been done at the start of the summer. Failed with our main targets again for a position we’ve needed for 2 seasons. #itfc
@Kieren_Lewis Opinions is what makes it interesting isn’t it. Burnley may not want to sell but if the interest was firm, it would have been all summer. And it hasn’t. Could have bid a month ago and he would have wanted out. We’ve failed with our main targets and now way down the list.
@MarkTho04770404 Irrelevant mate. Just to put it perspective…. Piroe, Vipotnik, Parrott, Ekhator, Eyong, Stassin, Jebbison, Stansfield, Wilson, Sinayoko, Espi, Guiu, Ueda, Isidor, Jesus, Embolo, Delap. Probably missed some, failed with our targets. And we’ve left it right to last minute, again.
@AreMatthews People are harsh on him. He turned into a bit of a scapegoat. He’s a confidence player who has had some bad injuries. We grew far too quickly and his ability just doesn’t measure up. If he stays fit, he’s a good league one striker, but I’d say that’s probably his ceiling.
