Well that's a random player to be linked with on 16:25 - Aug 15 with 1704 views | djgooder | It was suggested in the summer that the wolf wanted away. I hope not. I remember watching him under cook before KMK joined. He wasn’t great at all back then, but has developed so much and probably has further develop in him. Can’t see any of the others leaving. |  | |  |

Of course that'll be why we're in for him. Woolf's looked sluggish in all appearances so far this summer/early season. Dare I say it, a few pounds overweight too?! To be fair, Caceres' underlying data looks very impressive and Liga MX seems to be an untapped league that we're paying attention to this summer. [Post edited 15 Aug 16:27]

Well that's a random player to be linked with on 16:30 - Aug 15 with 1558 views | pointofblue | But Caceres will not be coming here to sit on the bench. He has too much pedigree to fly across the Atlantic just to replace Woolfenden as back up. It seems really random. I checked his entry on transfermarkt but he seems to be purely a centre back, rather than someone who can cover, says the full back positions. |  |

Could it also be a double swoop with Ruiz? Would help them both transition. Wishful thinking maybe….. |  | |  |

Agree with this, does not seem the type who would be a backup to O'shea .. Maybe KM keen for O'Shea to play more of the defensive fullback option. |  | |  |

Well that's a random player to be linked with on 16:35 - Aug 15 with 1412 views | pointofblue | Thinking out loud, I'm wondering if someone's picked up a mid to long term injury which we haven't yet disclosed. That, or a club's come in for either O'Shea (more likely) or Greaves which hasn't been made public. They're the only reasons why this would make sense to me. |  |

Possibly. Then Young becomes Davis' back up on the left, maybe? Saying that, O'Shea doesn't strike me as someone as capable of getting the ball forward as Tuanzebe was. |  |

Everything I can see suggests right sided. |  |

he's been a stand out in preseason and the few games so far? |  | |  |

Perhaps it is linked to Woolfenden going. Caceres comes in at LCB, moving Greaves to reserve. Kipre covers RCB, Woolfenden leaves. Would mean, if I understand it correctly, we'd have to include Humphreys in the 25 in order to be able to name nine subs. |  |

Which in turn means Taylor is the likelier of the 2 to leave should we get another CM in. |  |

Yeah, I think that about Greaves quite a bit, but I'm a certified idiot who thought Mings was raw and needed loaning out. So I tend to pipe down!! |  | |  |

I don't personally see it. Friday the goal starts with him for example I dunno. I've yet to see him look better than Burgess ( I will say tho he did when he first joined) |  |

How did their goal start with Greaves? Absolutely nothing wrong with his ball back to Palmer, he and O'Shea split as you want them to and instead of Palmer zipping a pass into midfield to then go out right, or going straight to O'Shea, he lofts a dreadful ball forward to the weakest man on the pitch and we're out of position when they inevitably win a pretty much uncontested header on the half way line. |  | |  |

I still think he looked far more comfortable alongside Woolfenden than he ever has with O'Shea. No idea why. Slightly different types of player? |  |

There’s a YouTube video from 2023 where he seems to be in the LCB position quite a lot although looks right footed. Loves a slide tackle. I’m in. |  | |  |

We're probably better off with a right footer at LCB to get the ball out to Davis as comfortably as possible. If we were looking go okay down the middle, or switch the ball to the right, then a left footer would be more beneficial. [Post edited 15 Aug 17:02]

Stats may prove me wrong. But maybe wolfy took the ball on more than oshea so greaves concentrated on defending more and being the cover rather than a ball playing defender. Not sure. Neither oshea or greaves are ball carriers really. |  |

Started with a poor goal kick and then a missed header. |  |
