I'd be surprised if we signed Baldock, given how highly valued he is at Bristol City compared to what I imagine his worth would be to us. The likes of March, Ince and Buckley are tied down to long term contracts so, if anyone wants to buy them, they will have to pay premium prices like with...

Is Ward still soon? Is it likely to be this week? Any others close?

Although I kind of agree that predicting the team now is pointless, I assume the reason Nzuzi is in most teams for the Sheff Wed game is lack of other options. With Stephens out and Crofts just coming back to fitness, Nzuzi and Ince starting in midfield would be the logical selection.

Absolutely. Thought I'd give it a go though!

I would say four. The left back, we know. I'd imagine that Maxsimenko/Ince will cover the fourth centre half (can always loan a player if bad injuries occur). I would only say one striker, as it sounds like we'll only play one up front still, but also add your winger and a creative midfielder...

Any other signings close? Do you think there'll be any more in by Thursday's match?

Has to be expected that there'd be some ridiculously negative comment. I assume you know what we paid for Stockdale, what his and Kuszczak's wage demands were and whether Kuszczak even wanted to stay. Ignoring that, Stockdale is 4 years younger and could have a decent sell on value if Walton...

It's not like for like though is it? Stockdale is four years younger so has much greater potential. We also might make a profit on him at some point if he's played regularly for us and we decide Walton should be first choice. I don't understand this forum. People moan all summer about lack of...

As I said, you're judging him on one friendly rather than 450 Premier League matches. Why not give him a chance?

Also, saying Hughes is a poor replacement is so negative. He's played considerably more Premier League games than Upson at similar clubs. But obviously he's apparently played poorly in a friendly match so should be written off now.

Read the post! I'm talking about three seasons ago when we came 10th. Upson wasn't here then! My point is that we came 10th then and I think the squad is similar, or even better. I'm proving that all the people on here talking about relegation should be more positive.

If you read my post, I'm comparing this to the squad that came 10th three seasons ago. We didn't have Upson then.

Thanks for the detailed response. You wouldn't care to say why. Or do you just want to moan without giving more information?

Fair enough. That was impressively vague.

Last I heard, Sky were linking him with a move to Olympiakos.

I'm really not sure if you are fishing or have heard something. Care to confirm?

There's been no keyboard warriors on this thread. Or does expressing the view you don't think this is likely qualify someone to be a keyboard warrior?

Backtracking. At least you admit you were wrong. Thanks

Apparently, according to the thread starter, the clean sheets in the League One championship were all down to the defence and nothing to do with Ankergren.

It sounds like rubbish but nothing would surprise me in football these days. Hope the Stockdale bit is true.
