Vorm- back-up
Yedlin- not even with us
Musacchio- Essential starter- we need a good CB
Dier- back-up
Davies- We bloody needed a LB
Schneiderlin- Poch sees as essential to his system...

Yeah, it's not that I find any of the signings unnecessary, and I trust Poch/Baldini/Levys judgement. But at the same time, there's not an overload of patience with players not hitting the ground running from a lot of fans (and maybe within the club). There's a lot of talk about selling players we bought last summer before they have even settled. That is what worries me.

What?! So far we've only brought in 2 players and only one of them is a sure starter!

Sure, I was thinking about JJ's latest info suggesting there's more coming. And it's not all about the starting line up, changes within the squad effects other players than just the ones coming in and going out too.

Dawson itk
Just arrived at WHL in jeans and a t shirt. Not involved.
Spoke to a staffer who spoke to him this morning.
Been told they want rid but he won't go under any circumstances.

He limped off last game? Feel sorry for Daws - Spurs through and through

I feel sorry for Daws, but then again, if he really loves the club, he should leave if that's what the club wants.


Trouble is Dawson aint a quitter - He maybe pretty limited as a footballer but he's got balls. I really don't want to believe we'll have to freeze him out to get rid, that scenario is ugly for the club and player.

Have a vision of Michael Dawson stood on Poch's front lawn at 2am sentimentally singing:

"I want me to stay. I want me to stay-ay-ay. Please, Mauricio. I want me to stay."

are we freezing him out though? if he stays and we do ever get mm, that puts him behind jan, mm, kaboul, and vlad and battling with dier for 5th best. chances are dier will be better too, I just haven't seen enough of him to say it with confidence. so it isn't that we are freezing him out, it's just that he's 6th best. if we do move vlad and kaboul (because daws refuses to go), he is still only 4th best and completely unsuited to our defensive system.

^ might well be getting rid of Vlad though. Kaboul captain today, Vlad not in the squad...

Just a theory but with this new right back coming in and walker not involved today and naughton playing most pre season games, maybe walker is on the way out???

You mean the RB that's going on loan.


Your theory can be dismissed now.

By who? You?
Not read anything about this new guy going on loan?
Where is walker?
Jj saying sensitive departure, just guess work but I wouldn't dismiss it that quickly
