I'll take our good performance v Coventry over this

I guess the truth lies inbetween.

This.

What we have learn today.....

We need a keeper, we need a goal poaching striker, we need cover at fullback and centre half.

Payne was the best player on the pitch but will also frustrate almost as much as he does well, similar for Tyler Smith, frustrate and excite in equal measure.



Do we really need more fullbacks and CB's? Think thats an over reaction to today. Assuming Donohue signs our full backs are fine, its Hunt and Caddis for RB, Donohue and Iandolo for LB done. We have Fryers, Baudry, Odimayo and hopefully a fit again Conroy or even Broadbent with Grant to cover. There were plenty of bodies missing today remember.

Its the same as before, we need 2 GK, 2 Striker and 2 Forwards (who play wide or across the front line).

Who scored the third. Good work by Payne who looked our best outlet from the grainy footage from the guy filming behind the goal.

100% and Conroy is a concern given he has had 2 serious injuries so young and has never even played a complete season. Wellens said they may go and get another in that area.

It stands though that the area we dont have bodies are GK and attacking areas. Twine will be a bit part player at best, due to the compressed season. Hopefully here from Wellens soon. Accept a couple of last minute deals but that still means 3 or 4 more are needed asap.

Thats exactly the point.

Fryers seems to be constantly injured as does Broodbent, Conroy seems a fair way away from fitness.

Caddis is the other option but looks very unfit, Donohue is still only rumoured to be signing with nothing firm yet. Iandolo with the greatest respect iwll never be a full back/wingback.

As it stands we are almost at bare bones defensively. Baudry, Hunt, Odimayo... Curran and Reid seem a long way off the required standard for L2 let alone L1.

When all the players are fit then yes we have enough bodies, as it stands we definately don't.

I think it's fair to say that we knew this before today (full-back aside - Cads/Hunt/Reid - Hunt/Iandolo/Fryers - perhaps Donohue on top of that)

Wellens wants plenty of new faces. Busy fortnight ahead.

It’s clear that what we need is a biased referee.  I may know someone.
