We would walk the league with Taylor and Martinelli up front
Poor old Macauley Bonne! Scores 5 in 6 starts, but is cast aside in the belief a LOAN signing will do better than him...
Why do so many of you have no faith in the players the club already has?
Are you Macauley’s dad?
Absolutely not. But I presume that you think he should be dropped summarily for a loanee striker?
What has he got to do to justify being kept in the team? In your opinion?
To be fair Martinelli is not just any loan striker. He is a Brazilian 19 year old with a handful of appearances who just scored a brace v Liverpools U18 team. Pretty obvious he would be well up for away Winter trips to the likes of Preston, Wigan, Stoke etc and would have all the necessary fighting qualities to play Millwall later in the year too. Can’t really see Macauley being up for those given his mollycoddled background
Be an interesting question for Bowyer when Taylor is back, coz he will obviously get his spot back, and with Bonne coming on leaps and bounds, but then again, despite his obvious inefficiencies, Leko does provide that something different, but maybe from the subs bench.
I think when Taylor is back, Bonne will replace Leko as first choice to play with him with Leko being used as more a last 30 mins option - whether we have Taylor after the window and what happens then who knows but I’m sure LB and SG know
he signed a four year contract for Norwich in 2018 but was promptly loaned out to Millwall. He was then released this summer.
he’s one of those players that always had a good reputation but has never really hit the heights. Maybe he is a bad egg but similarly maybe he is exactly a Bowyer signing
lets see how this pans out if true...seem to recall he was a pretty big lad for a winger with decent cross on him
If we are still where we are in January and Peterborough not doing so well, I would love us to make another bid for Ivan Toney, the rotation between him, Taylor and Bonne would be excellent
He will go for $7-10M in the summer. Peterborough won't sell him in January. But I agree, would like him a lot.

We should be bidding for him anyway assuming Rolly is still happy to spend. He was happy to spend £4m in August and one would hope that he may be prepared to chip in a bit more if we are there or there about.
The problem being is he is mad as a box of frogs so good luck to Bows and co negotiating that.

Human Squirrel hybrids will be bred to be sold for profit.
Duchatelet remains in place and Katrien Meire returns as CSF that's Chief Squirrel Face.
I suppose as usual we will bring in a full back ...
Wouldnt be a bad signing but would hope we're getting the Marshall who performed for Blackburn compared with recent years

Bows doesn't do wingers...

The way the transfer dragged on a bit it made me think that Roland did a Konsa where he just aimed for the best price
We’ve been done this way now by Birmingham, Wigan, Preston and Millwall.
