Quote from: donyderek on July 17, 2018, 03:11:58 pmHasn't McCann said he's finished with the transfer market. He did. We have a team no better than last year Fergie new how to get out of this division, McCann doesn't. Why change, McCann is cheaper, he has a desire and willingness to play the kids, cheaper than Fergies quality players, All McCann has done is switch to 433 and we've only one strìker. He's not spent any money at all one in one out, if you look Dosnt look good to me. Personally can we really afford a championship budget. Or is it just marketing by the board, The board know the costs and the answer to that one. We need investment a take over. Until then we are just a football team Too good for div2 not good enough for a top 6 div 1 Yes, Fergie got us out of this league at the first time of asking.

GM is looking for a forward player.He is happy with the midfield players he has.Wanted AG but Peterborough want to much money.Resources are their if GM feels he needs to bring in player that are better than what he has.Both GM and GB believe they have the resources for atop six finish.GM believes he has the players for top six finish.Players committed to the way he wants to play.JM not for sale don’t need or want to sell him.ML kept because he will challenge NM.
Stand out points of note:McCann wants a cup run and will urge Rovers to go to win the Checkatrade Trophy. “I won’t be playing a U18 side on those Tuesday nights.”Also believes both Luke McCullough and Ben Whiteman are better than Jordan Houghton #drfc
Don’t think it will be one or the other and I don’t believe what I heard that it will strictly be a holding player role. They will attack together and all will defend together, his words.
Number, variety and capability all low I am afraid. Was our weakness last season and unaddressed this close season thus far - lot can change mind.

I guess in a 433 he has options but is there depth given he has.just one brought in and two going out?I can see why he's after a forward first. Lose Marquis and we are stuffed.

See we’re joking but what was said he expects 4/5 players in the opposition box when we are attacking even one full back.
Christ. Whiteman is best used when he's allowed to push on. He's not a defensive midfielder.
That sounds terrifying. It'll either be thrilling or an absolute, unmitigated disaster.

Not impressed so far.For an ex midfield player, of some repute, to say he's not looking for midfield players is either a) bluffing, or b) deluded, or c) a mixture of a and b.Not long left to ensure the answer is a.Here's hoping, with a capital H.
