I'd be happy to use Sadlier there sparingly but probably not going to happen If we do manage to move him and John on I'd expect anyone incoming to be of a rwb nature Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've really enjoyed that part of our game this season compared to last, the ball is getting moved quicker and I put that down to Iredale being less ponderous than Johnstone and Baxter getting on with the game more than Trafford. Santos still slows it down but 1 out of 3 ain't bad and Santos is so good he's earned the right to play the game at his own pace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year it took us 9 games to score 9 league goals which we achieved on the 1st October against Lincoln. Indeed. And 6 goals from open play from strikers by mid August compared to the 6th being scored on 10th December last year! Could just do with Charles scoring in a home game if we're being picky.

For the odd game this option is fine as we have ample cover for the outside CB position. Jones' delivery is really good and while he doesn't have JDC's athleticism, he'd be good enough when he has someone like Dempsey or Maghoma with him, who can carry the ball near that channel and bring defenders towards them Edited August 17, 2023 by boltonboris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw this on Twitter a week or so back which resonates with what we’re doing at the moment - particularly when Santos stands there or slowly ambles forward. Quite insightful actually. https://x.com/lostockwanderer/status/1689216476245344256?s=46&t=VnTGWc6rFFhe_DKyHpZm3g Edited August 17, 2023 by matty2094 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
