Are you a rose grower?

It's 106 miles to Portman Road, we've got a full tank of gas, half a round of Port Salut, it's dark... and we're wearing blue tinted sunglasses.
Poll: Which recent triallist should we have signed?

You’ll get 1500 downvotes but we’ve for sure got a lot wrong in the market not only that it doesn’t feel like they all fit the system.

We have spent a lot of money on supposedly top Championship players, adding them to a squad which was good enough to win automatic promotion. While it's only a few games, if results don't improve over the next month, McKenna has a lot of questions to answer as he bought all those players.

Happy clappers will be after you but we've wasted a King's ransom. Some last season tried to say our recruitment had one eye on the championship too!

Yep. I know they’re coming. However, Greaves, Palmer, Clarke, Philogene, Muric, Johnson the list goes on and on. Don’t fit the system, too lightweight, unintelligent footballers.

How much are our signings down to McKenna and how much are they down to Ashton?

You would think that McKenna says yes or no to all signings. Ashton is CEO, not director of football. He will negotiate the deals & get them done, not choose the players.

As others have said you'll have the happy clappers and toxic positivity Boyz down voting you a new arsehole but you're right.

I'd hope today was the end of the Clarke experiment. Cajuste has to start, Taylor just isn't Championship quality. Greaves looks imperious 99% but costs us a goal seemingly every game. O'Shea simply not a leader, Davis & Young both showed significantly more fight.

Thought Philogene had a good game, hamstrung by the fact Preston got effectively put 3 players on him the rest of the attack was so toothless

Philogene cost £21m of that. Whoever negotiated that for Villa will be asking for a statue.

These are all highly payed professionals for this level, so they are going to have to start showing us soon that they deserve the outlay. I include KM in that.

Philogene is the one that I didn't think we needed at the time and Broadhead would most probably be still here had we not.

But a manager should be creating a system to fit his players strengths, not try and put round pegs in square holes, in an effort to make a "system" work, which is exactly what McKenna keeps doing....

We’ve had two (perhaps soon to be three?) shocking transfer windows in a row but the bigger concern to me is we still continue to persist with the sh1t we bought rather than the arguably better players that now warm the bench if they haven’t left already.

Clarke was a panic but because Villa gazumped is with Philogene. Now we've got two players who have done very little for us on big money instead of one.

You can’t spend 130M and not play them, you’re essentially sacking yourself.

maybe a director of football is what we need, heading a better recuitment team.

Hooray for half balancing the books FC

Another way of framing that is that we have since lost the cream of that crop, not replaced them, are stuck with the ones that haven’t worked out, and still have a massive outlay to show for it
