Tino has two states - barely fit and unfit. Great talent and great to watch, but even when he was in the side (either as a sub or a starter) he was blowing out of his arse after an alarmingly short period of time. He's young, but it looks like his body is always going to let him down. 100% correct. |

Is it just me that thinks we desperately need a better Hogg / Kasumu ?? Depends exactly what you're saying. Both are generally good enough as the grafter, but them two and Rudoni ain't a good combo IMO. It's one or the other for me, with a better ball player/technician in there.....which we don't have (ignoring Austerfield, who isn't ready). |

We do need that ball playing midfielder if we’re going to do anything this season . A midfield trio of REG/Hogg , Kasumu/Rudoni and a more technical player would be absolutely fine. I know Rudoni may be the answer to that long term but we need another experienced head in there |

I think NW likes REG so will save some transfer money for other areas and give him a bit of game time next season. Plus he can fill a few positions.
A typical Warnock kind of situation this. Get the best out of an average player who was stalling everywhere else

I don’t know if we necessarily need better (would never turn it down though) but I worry that they’re both very injury prone and Hogg will increasingly need to be used sparingly. We were pretty lucky with Kasumu last year with his 33 games. He’s only managed 24, 24 and 21 previously for MK Dons. Hopefully he’s over the worst. As others have mentioned REG could fill the gap if Warnock sees fit. |

I'm wondering if what we need and what might be a realistic option is a vastly experienced Premier League ball player nearing the end of their career to run the midfield for a season or two. I remember thinking how technically good Dean Whitehead looked when he first came in, and of course, going back - Barry Horne. Someone like James McArthur from Palace, maybe. Nobody else really springs to mind, unfortunately.

If we you were to pick two teams from our squad - first and second team - I think it shows where the gaps are now
My first 11 in 343 would be Nicholls, Yuta, Helik, Pearson; Headley Hogg, Kasumu, Thomas; Koroma, New Striker, Rudoni (basically the formation and most of starting team yesterday)
Second 11 in a 433 would be; Maxwell; Turton, Lees, Ayina, Ruffels; REG, New CM, New CM; Jones, Ward, Diarra
Spencer, Jackson Harratt, Hudlin as well
I think they hoped to keep Camara so he needs replacing. The rest we've sold weren't going to feature in the first team a lot
However looking at the gaps for me we need 3 minimum. A striker, two CMs (Keshi Anderson who went to Brum yesterday would have been a good option as CM and on the wing) and I think a right back (although REG and Pearson can play there as well as Spencer). Then strengthen if better options come available. Someone like Harvey Vale would be the kind of loanee quality that would make a difference

Played there 6 times in our 9 match run at the end of the season. Whilst not ideal, he’s not incapable of doing a job there! |

What was our average possession in those games? Obviously he isn't solely responsible but it does feel like he mostly kicks it forward randomly rather than aiming for someone |

Obviously he isn't solely responsible but it does feel like he mostly kicks it forward randomly rather than aiming for someone Kicking it forward randomly does mean he cleared it??? If we clear as much as is humanly possible then we will be in quite a few games. Its not ideal but this season does look as though it may be a difficult watch at times.? |

"Not ideal" is the issue for me. Playing someone out of position because you have an injury crisis is one thing, but as things stand if we're playing a flat back 4, a centre back out of position is our best option. Debatable which position is top priority to replace but for me, RB is up there. |

No guarantee Turton comes back the same player either.
