Mark Ashton 17:14 - Aug 23 with 647 views | kizaitfc | Before the start of the season he explained the key aims in the market was to retain players. He also said we need to start looking at more physical players. How has that gone??? I love the guy for what he has done to this club, but think he has had a poor summer. |  |

We are missing the big physical lad up top, the Kieffer Moore, Liam Delap type. |  |

Mark Ashton on 17:33 - Aug 23 with 397 views | IP1Blue | I made a post last week and got slated. The last 3 transfer windows have been nothing short of dreadful. Last years was signing players who had wonder seasons e.g. Clarke, Greaves and Szmodics and fair enough Delap and Hutchinson worked but there were many more misses than hits which is quite obvious now. Philogene, Villa signed for 13m and then 6 months later we sign him for £20m despite him not playing and it being clear we lacked physicality in the prem at that time in attack. Just completely baffling. This year he said we going to get it done early and now we look desperate. Said we wanted physicality and then signs McAteer for £14m?!? Makes no sense and contradicts everything he has said and tbh I don’t exactly trust him to get it right which might sound harsh |  | |  |

The big question is who is responsible for our moves in the transfer market. Is it Ashton, McKenna, Werhun, a mix of them or all three? Whoever it is have made an utter mess of it. |  |

Matiuswa is showing the value that’s abroad. Our constant overspend on EFL players that don’t fit the system and at times are even debatable upgrades has really cost us. More last summer than anything. I can’t believe how many tens of millions we have spent on championship players. Now we are trying to make them work, all while starting Jack Taylor and playing Hirst for 90 minutes. |  |

Mark Ashton on 17:36 - Aug 23 with 314 views | Swansea_Blue | We’ve retained more than I expected, so that part has been good/lucky. Azor and Akpom look pretty strong to me. Clarke and Billy Jean were already here and they were the physical weak links. It’s not clicking with those 2 at the moment. They’re not working well with their fullbacks, whoever’s at 10 or Hirst. Ironically given the stick he’s getting Clarke seems to be linking up the better of the two. |  |
