All we needed to do was replace the midfield 2 and if anyone we sold (Emi) plus maybe

a centre back and get a reserve left back and a pacy strike option on loan. And we would have been a damn sight better off than we are now.

We did not need to spread the money over 9 players. 2/3 quality players plus a couple of loans would have been better. Kenny, Rupp, Vrancic, Mumba, Placheta and even Onel all fine as back up.

        No exactly. Bought into their son's own hype a bit. Not sure what they expect. (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Nov 2, 09:40:55
        
        Sat next to about 10 of his family at Arsenal. Extended family all had come to see him (NCFC) - Jim, Nov 2, 10:11:17
        
        No offense, but I couldn't care less if they had a shit day, who cares? (NCFC) - megson, Nov 2, 10:25:13
        
        He hasn’t been that poor has he? This has kind of been made up since (NCFC) - Jim, Nov 2, 10:32:02
        
        Fair, there have been poor performances throughout. (n/m) (NCFC) - megson, Nov 2, 11:12:37
        
        His last 90 mins was Watford at home. Wish they'd all been there then (n/m) (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Nov 2, 10:34:04
        
        He played in our incredibly difficult start to the season (NCFC) - jamesward, Nov 2, 10:33:32
        
        Ah yes, forgot he played that cup game. He definitely needs to up his work rate. (n/m) (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Nov 2, 10:41:44
        
        I once did a car race at Snetterton, loads of friends and family came along. (NCFC) - Augustus Pablo, Nov 2, 10:17:45
        
        lol. I'd love to do something like that, perhaps without the crash though. (n/m) (NCFC) - megson, Nov 2, 10:25:56
        
        It’s a good laugh but basically involves tinkering about in your garage for hours (NCFC) - Augustus Pablo, Nov 2, 10:36:06
        
        Here’s a picture of my car after it was restored by someone recently (NCFC) - Augustus Pablo, Nov 2, 10:40:48
        
        Nice, that looks like it would have been a lot of fun to drive! (n/m) (NCFC) - megson, Nov 2, 11:12:06
  - wouldnt be surprised (n/m) (NCFC) - jampersands, Nov 2, 09:14:57
    - Our midfield was the clear priority, recruitment issue (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Nov 2, 09:27:25
      - Sorensen is a goiod player. He will do ok if he's ever given a chance. (NCFC) - Jim, Nov 2, 10:12:30
        
        Maybe Farke is taking a no nonsense approach to Sorensen's nonsense. (n/m) (NCFC) - Ken Dodds Dads Dog, Nov 2, 10:36:28
        
        "Ok" is exactly what we need too.... (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Nov 2, 10:35:58
      - Any way you look at it, has Webber sent Farke to war with a bag full of sporks? (n/m) (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Nov 2, 09:28:41
        
        It all worked so well last year (NCFC) - Under soil heating, Nov 2, 10:02:19
        
        Yep. Hard to argue (n/m) (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Nov 2, 10:25:16
        
        All we needed to do was replace the midfield 2 and if anyone we sold (Emi) plus maybe (NCFC) - Jim, Nov 2, 10:15:33
        
        Emi is not replaceable though (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Nov 2, 10:41:24
        
        But apart from all that... (n/m) (NCFC) - jamesward, Nov 2, 10:06:25
