I've got family who are season ticket holders at Ruch Chorzow, they say Mat is shitehouse.

I have never said jurgen doesn't deserve a chance, I am saying there is more to this than a tactical decision not having Knocky in the squad.

This thread seems to have gone a bit quiet, im guessing because most people like me are thinking that we're actually fine this season with the squad we have & so there wont be much business done in January. I'd be pretty happy if we ended the transfer window as we start it, and havent lost any key players. Or should we avoid being complacent & look to further improve.

This is probably one of the only times I'd ever be happy to see tumbleweed, goes to show we are exactly where we want to be, for now.

I fear he might start to find it harder soon to fight his way back into the starting line up, once Izquierdo if it again, and Jahanbakssh returns from the Asia Cup, then as you say, there is the small matter of trying to displace Locadia too.
Could be tricky, very very tricky.. Lets all hope he wants to fight his way back into the side, and not give up and sulk.

I think Knocky is better defensively. Towards the end of both the Arsenal and Everton games, Locadia was not offering the cover that March was offering on the other side, to the extent where at Everton match, March ran across from other wing shouting and gesticulating to Locadia, and Locadia was subbed for Knocky to finish of the Arsenal game.

I agree, just think it's more of personal reasons like Hughton finds he has to keep punishing him, his latest thing, saw him out of the squad, I really think he will let him go.
But I think on his day he is unplayable and he has had some excellent games for us this season.
Locadia has the more physical presence, and I still think he is a handy weapon, I just wish Chris would not keep knocking Knocky!!
We know he is fragile.
Love a bit of gesticulating.
Well done March for that!!

Don't think it is possible for him, but Knocky needs to be less emotional, but maintain his obvious zeal. His defensive mindset, instilled by Chris, is a great asset when defending a lead, yet his attacking flair when we are chasing a result is also massive. The only thing hampering his selection is the emotion - although Chris is hardly setting a good example with his touchline antics.

Is that really true, or a Bogusz claim?
Happy to give me a few thumbs up, but when it comes to mentions in the nsc poster thread, I am nowhere, you, you, you tart you.

The Guardian has only got rehashed rumours for this window:
Tavernier
Powell
Msakni

I can’t see any senior team additions so I guess it’s going to be a very dull window for us.

It's a great position to be in to not need to bring anyone in.
With the caveat that it's not so great to stand still if everyone else improves their squads.
However, maybe bringing in Dan Burn for Barclay in the squad, and more involvement for Connolly and Gyokeres is sufficient improvement ?
It seems we may only bring in someone else if he is a player on our future purchase list who suddenly becomes available.

The only player for the first team I see us making a move for is Powell at Wigan .... we wanted him last window and although he has had a few injuries so far this season he is out of contract in June.
May not be a 'join now' signing but we could do a pre contract for next season on this one as we do tend to keep after our targets for more than one window ... unless Wigan want to cash in and get something now .. .depends on who else is after him

Interesting thought.
He is currently injured though.
We could, of course, loan him back to Wigan; this type of deal worked with an injured Burn.
He has to leave that club by the summer or else his career will stagnate as he is a top Championship player at the very worst and a future England star at the very best. Wigan will have to cash in this window and we need to be first in line with our sickeningly fat Premier League cheque book (so **** off Leeds).

We don’t really need him now but being an attacker and home grown, he’d be much more useful in the squad than either Suttner or Schelotto. Buy him and send back to Wigan I say.
