New ex-players (and managers) thread

What a horrific appointment this charlatan was.

I think there are a few teams who think this.

I think there are a few teams who think this.

And yet.

At least we've been decisive and moved him on.

Hurrah for Congerton. I feared us signing him permanently and no doubt he'd join the list of 'not good enoughs' we'd be trying to offload within a year. He was an okay loan last year, but he's nothing special.

Our wide options are pathetic. Even Lookman would have been an improvement on nobody.

Maybe we've got somebody else lined up.........

That's exactly the approach to recruitment that got us into the mess we're in.

We should only sign players that are better than the ones we've already got or will be. Fecking squad fillers are a waste of time and money.

He's better than what we've got because we don't have anyone else.

The people running the club need to take a hard look at themselves, letting our manager bring in his mate (who had a shit record) to do recruitment.

Absolute shambles from the lot of them.

His best position is wide left and Barnes is better.

He was brought in to play on the right where he was consistently terrible. I'd prefer Albrighton, Perez, Maddison, Ricardo or Iheanacho there to him.

No he absolutely wouldn't be. Better off signing nobody than adding to our mediocrity. If Lookman was here permanently he'd be one of the ones who we'd all be happy to ge rid off.

David Stockdale has signed for Sheffield Wednesday. I think that's his twelfth club since he was on loan to City thirteen years ago.

Kasper starts on the bench today.

Nice 1 down after 20 mins.

Not nice

I keep hoping every day that Brendan Rodgers will be moved to this thread.

[Micky]

That's incredible.

 

[H T B]

Wow!

 

[bocadillo]

That's incredible.

Even more incredible was that two of that squad were playing for free. I don't mean they came to us on a free transfer; they actually played for no pay.
