Apparently Millwall have threatened to report us regarding the ongoing efforts to sign Shaun Williams.
Good player but surprised we have gone for him. Centre back/holding midfield player isn't the priority if we are only getting one more in..
Dunno... If we play 4-2-3-1 that Robinson favours then we've got Konsa and Crofts to play the two positions in front of the Defence yet if one of those mentioned gets injured then we've got to rely on Jackson... Ulvestad | JFC | Aribo appear to be more attack minded and part of the Midfield three supporting the Striker so wouldnt want them
JFC can play as a 10 or as an 8/4. I actually think a true defensive midfielder wouldn't be a bad shout--assuming we can get two players in, another one an attacker. Right now, for that "double 6" position (2 in front of the defense) we have: Crofts, Konsa, JFC, Ulvestad, JJ*
None of them, except for maybe Konsa who hasn't played much at senior level in that position, are a true defensive midfielder designed to break up play. As we saw with Darren Potter at MK Dons, KR does like that type of player. That said, I don't think a 30 year old who has spent most of his career in the Irish league and lower leagues is the answer.
I think a #10 or genuine winger is the top need. Heard we've been linked with a move for Ali Crawford up at Hamilton for £1m. Anyone seen this anywhere else?

When did we start using numbers to describe positions? I know they do it on the continent, but it still seems arbitrary to me.

I think they do it most places, and I'd argue it's been done in Britain for a while. If I said an "old fashioned number 9" you'd know what I mean, right?

Fair point. It's newish to talk about 4/8/10 though

Sign him up.

Reminds me of Grafite, the old Wolfsburg striker.
