Annnnnd thats him arrived.

Starting to look like, when all fit, we have some decent options in midfield.

At last.
How decent? His record looks average at best, much like Sara.

If these new guys appear to be able to do the business surely we no longer have to suffer McLean's ineptitude.

I think Mclean, with the right players around him, is absolutely fine at this level. He's a water carrier, he'll do the graft, but not really contribute much going forward. The trouble is, and was last season, is that we have too many midfielders with very similar, safeish attributes. They can do most things okay, and will give you a 6.5 out of 10 every week, without really being remarkable in any way.

There is still a place for him in the squad, but with somebody with more creativity than Sorenson, beside him.

I struggle with Max, I suspect Farke told him to cut inside so much it's his default move now sadly.
I've read a quote from Josh who was begging Max to get to the byline & put crosses into the box.
We need people to cross. What's the point of wide players who don't cross into the box. With a big guy like Sarge who is good in the air there's always a chance a we can get a goal.

Our game has been entirely based around Pukki though, who isn't good in the air. But you're right, the rest of the team needs to adapt to play to his strengths.

And that's where Hugill came in during preseason. I get people (Morty) saying he's not up to quality, but if a cross goes in the box you fancy him to score.

I read that a left backbis incoming but nothing else will happen before the window "slams shut"

Honestly I watched him in the cup game last week, and he was dreadful.

This is the weirdest one yet ....

Yeah, that is definitely out of left field!

I was actually a bit surprised Tim didn't leave after we got relegated and go to a lower end Prem club. Oh, actually...
